Nowadays, the customer expects a combination of a product or service with a, brand-related, experience. In many sectors good products and services are no longer distinctive, you have the opportunity to purchase them wherever you like. The customer experience is increasingly becoming the distinguishing element, regarding both the decision-making and the renewal of products and services. Edwinbest.org offers an integral CX approach based on the CXPA CX framework:
Edwinbest.org CX services are grouped into:

1. CX Strategy
The economy evolves through the service economy to the experience economy. Nowadays, the customer – B2B, B2C, B2G – expects a combination of a product or service with a brand-related experience. The customer experience is increasingly becoming the distinguishing part of the decision-making process. Both for new business (referrals) and for a renewal of an existing business (experience). The Brand and People are focus elements within a Cx strategy, which come together in the “brand-worthy” behavior of a company.

1.2. CX Strategy implementation?
Once the strategy is ready, the implementation phase follows. I use an integrated approach from an organization and technology point of view based on “People, Business Processes and Technology”. From an Agile perspective, the development and implementation of a CX strategy are not strictly separate successive phases. This is an interactive process for which I use the Scrum methodology.

2. Customer journey mapping and customer touchpoints
Customer experience requires an outside in approach. Thinking and acting “the Jobes to bed done”. What are the ‘pain and gain’ of a customer instead of thinking and acting in own products and services.
A business organized all around the various customer journeys instead of an internally oriented business with silos. A business where the physical and digital touchpoints are linked to customer journeys.
