CX myths, data and customer expectations
Some of the topics that will be discussed in depth at the CEM Africa Summit in August include:
• Myths of customer experience: This keynote session will address some common myths of CX transformation and provide a provocative course-corrected perspective.
• Customer journey management: From designing, measuring, managing and implementing fixes and improvements to closing the feedback loops.
• Data-driven marketing for better customer experience: Undoubtedly, data-driven marketing is the future. A single bad experience is enough to deter visitors from becoming customers.
The panel discussions will unpack the leading role that the African continent is playing in the digital transformation in CX, mapping the customer journey and exploring the delivery experience, how to keep up with the constantly evolving expectations of customers, and unlocking valuable customer loyalty in competitive industries.
