Model dimension · 03 / 08

Do you design the customer experience or only respond to complaints?

This dimension assesses the ability to design a desired, personalized, and consistent experience across the entire customer lifecycle.

Maturity levels

How does customer experience look at each level?

0

Non-existent

No experience design; interactions depend on each channel.

1

Emerging

The experience is managed reactively, channel by channel.

2

Multichannel

There are experience improvement efforts, but without a lifecycle view.

3

Transitioning to omnichannel

The company designs a desired experience and begins to coordinate it across channels.

4

Managed omnichannel

The experience is measured, proactively managed, and adapted to customer segments.

5

Optimised omnichannel

The experience is personalized, predictive, and improved in real time with customer feedback.

Warning signs

Does any of this sound familiar?

There is no customer journey map or shared vision of the expected experience.

The experience is reactive: action is only taken when the customer complains.

Personalization is limited to using the customer's name in an email.

Interactions are designed by channel, not by customer lifecycle stage.
