The Path to Customer Obsession

Test-and-learn strategies for meeting customer needs

EXECUTIVE REPORT

As the Optimizely Digital Experience Partner of the Year, we help brands orchestrate, monetize, and experiment at scale.

Everyone wants to know what customers want. It’s a truth as lasting as commerce itself.

Today, the dictum has turned its head: customers expect that you know what they want, and can deliver it to them seamlessly. What’s more, they expect this level of service at every touchpoint from organizations large and small, from high tech to healthcare to financial services and beyond.

To keep up, business leaders must keep a finger on the pulse of a market that’s always in flux. In this environment, only customer-obsessed companies will rise to the challenge and thrive.

While there isn’t a magic customer-obsession switch, there are strategies to set you on the path to success. These tried-and-true approaches ensure your organization moves from a product orientation toward customer obsession.

Customer-obsessed companies use test-and-learn ecosystems to uncover truths about what customers truly desire. In the age of AI and ML-based tools, every touchpoint is an occasion for testing, and every employee is a purveyor of data insights. Likewise, every process and decision, save the most strategic ones, must pass the touchstone of testing.
