“Customer behaviors are changing every day right and you as a company have to make sure that you are meeting their needs by adopting newer technologies. – in fact, COVID or the entire pandemic has only accelerated this process.” – Raman M K, Head of International Marketing, Exotel (12/10/22).
The COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted our lives and livelihoods months after the novel coronavirus was discovered in the country. In daily life, the epidemic has largely altered all of our routines. In normal times, customers have a tendency to remain obstinately loyal to their routines, which leads to very delayed adoption of advantageous innovations that need behavioral modification. The COVID-19 dilemma has now prompted customers worldwide to alter their behavior—quickly and significantly.
Mr. Raman saw this as an opportunity for companies to do various things in order to maintain a seamless customer experience. One of them is a framework that will ensure the entire customer experience for their regions. Here is 4 framework for futuristic CX that will get your company a remarkable customer experience:
