Defining Customer Experience

Customer experience encompasses every interaction between a brand and its customers throughout their entire journey. It is not limited to customer service but includes the overall perception and experiences customers have, starting from their initial awareness to the point they become loyal advocates. Companies often overlook the necessity of actively managing and designing this experience, which can lead to customers feeling neglected. By adopting a proactive approach to understanding customer needs, businesses can better tailor their experiences to retain customers and encourage ongoing engagement.
