Exceptional customer service is a competitive differentiator. Providing consistent service that is tailored to the individual across a variety of digital channels can help organizations deliver personalized experiences that exceed the expectations of today’s digital savvy consumers. Yet, many organizations fail to deliver real-time relevance in their service experiences because critical customer data is siloed in different systems (CRM, ticketing, etc.) across the enterprise, making it difficult to understand the full customer journey and their needs at that point in time. We partnered with IDG Research to survey top-performing customer service organizations to determine the challenges they face, and, more importantly, their plans for driving better outcomes. One thing is clear: taking a strategic approach to future investments can help organizations meet their customer service objectives and deliver on customer expectations.

Modern business-to-business (B2B) buyers have unprecedented access to information to support their buying process and, as a result, have become more self-reliant in the evaluation process. This has made B2B sellers’ jobs harder; not only do they have less control in earlier stages of the sales cycle, but they have to work harder to connect and engage with buyers, turning prospects into customers. Sales technologies have helped modernize how sellers and sales leaders manage their pipelines and execute contracts, but technology gaps around engagement persist, making it difficult for sellers to keep pace with, connect with, and support buyer engagement. The common outcome: Sellers become slaves to their CRM systems, focused more on updating reports and logging their activities than they are in driving business results.

The General Data Protection Regulation – or GDPR – is a European Union (EU) law that protects the rights of individuals with respect to their data. Adopted as an EU law in April 2016, organizations that hold data about any resident of the EU must be compliant by May 2018. With attention-grabbing fines of €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, GDPR commands attention at the highest levels. And despite the “legalese” that compliance suggests brands utilize, the brands that balance legal compliance with a human approach will turn GDPR to their advantage. This white paper provides a series of actions you can take to make the most of GDPR to both enhance your customer relationships and mitigate risk.

Among all the trends and buzzwords currently shaking up the marketing industry, one concept is emerging as the one to watch: customer experience (CX). Providing individual customers with the best possible experience is becoming the top priority at the moment, even to the point where experience outshines product quality(!) as the main differentiator. This is confirmed by a recent Gartner1 survey, in which 86 percent of participating companies listed customer experience as the main factor for gaining a competitive advantage, compared with merely 36 percent in 2012.

20% of customers will be responsible for 80% of profit – or so says The Pareto Principle, also known as the “rule of the vital few.” So, while marketers are trying hard to increase market share, they should be equally (or even more) concerned about nurturing the customer relationships they already have. That means finding ways to strengthen bonds with your best customers and figuring out how to turn good customers into better ones. Personalization, truly helpful support, data-driven contextual marketing, re-engagement strategies, gamification… There’s an almost overwhelming number of options out there, each touted as your golden key to an enduring bond with your users.
