Your ultimate CX destination

Ever since brands have existed to provide products and services to customers, there has been a constant quest to raise the bar on Customer Experience (CX). Achieving superior CX at a lower cost is the single most impactful lever to capture market share, enhance revenue and profitability of any enterprise.

As customer expectations continue to evolve, information-led innovation such as Process Automation, Interaction Analytics and Customer Journey Analytics have taken quantum leaps to ensure a future-proofed service ecosystem. Clearly, the fast-paced growth of the information age and its capacity to deliver superior CX has been established. Leveraging technology to improve customer engagement and customer lifetime value has become a norm rather than an overcautious chess move.

However, as the market stands today – the proof is loud and clear. And it comes from a wide range of industries with a variety of established business outcomes.

The BFSI industry, in particular, has seen tremendous improvement in its overall CX strategies Large players have seen sustainable outcomes, through harnessing the power of deep-dive analytics. It gives enterprises the ability to understand customer actions and emotions across every banking touch-point. They can now ensure a more satisfying experience for customers by:

The journey has only just begun

Banks are also relying on Journey Analytics to provide 360-degree customer engagement. There are several paths that a single customer can embark upon while moving between different channels over a period of time. It is therefore crucial to decipher which paths add momentum to enterprise growth and customer loyalty. Some of its benefits include:

  • Discovering reasons for low CSAT & NPS; driving them up
  • Understanding single and multi-channel behavior
  • Increasing channel retention
  • Reducing customer service cost

Successful adoption of these evolving technologies will significantly enhance performance. Automation has the potential to raise throughput, improve predictions, accuracy, outcomes, and optimization. Analytics, on the other hand, makes decision making easy with actionable insights and engagements with the customers. Today analytics and automation are generating real value. For example:

  • A financial institution achieved 100% FTE reduction with 0% error rate for its credit waiver process
  • A telco enhanced its market presence as they were the first enterprise in their local region to implement a cognitive AI agent
  • An insurance company increased its retention rate by 35% by reducing customer effort score leveraging customer journey analytics
  • A mortgage company leveraged process automation and reduced the onboarding time from 14 days to 2 days
