In this episode of the eCommerce Podcast, host Matt Edmundson interviews Laura Richard from Level 5 Strategy about the importance of customer experience and how it can drive business success.

Create emotional connections: Laura emphasises that emotions account for 50% of consumer behaviour, although customers may not always express these feelings explicitly. Understanding the emotional benefits customers derive from products or services can help businesses craft experiences and messages that resonate on a deeper level, leading to stronger customer loyalty and satisfaction.
Engage everyone in strategy development: A major reason why strategies fail is the lack of involvement from the team and customers during the development process. Laura highlights the importance of engaging stakeholders, including employees and customers, early and often in strategy formation. Businesses can leverage customer panels and feedback loops to ensure that strategies align with customer needs and expectations.
Create authenticity in the customer experience: To stand out against competitors, particularly large players like Amazon, eCommerce businesses need to focus on authenticity and unique customer experiences. This includes creating personalised experiences on websites and aligning with causes that reflect the brand’s values. Differentiation can also come from addressing specific unmet needs within a niche market, which helps build stronger connections with customers.
