My colleagues and I have recently been writing about "The Path to CX Excellence," and the importance of brands thinking differently about their customers' experiences (CX). One point of view we share is that brands today need to think about customer experience as the key point of differentiation to successfully attract, retain, and grow long term customer relationships. How every brand can have best-in-class experiences and set itself apart is unique for each organization. Leading the product marketing team for Oracle's B2C Marketing solutions, I spend a lot of time speaking with marketers about how to improve their customer experiences and their ability to outcompete.
