Customer Experience
Customer experience represents the overall emotional journey
throughout the buying cycle from the moment a customer discovers a
brand to the point of purchase and beyond. Customer experience
includes every piece of content they read, every conversation with the
service team, every interaction they have with a product.
It’s also a good time to clear up a common misconception: customer
experience and customer service are not interchangeable terms.
Customer service represents just one slice of the total experience and
refers to the direct interactions that a customer has with front-line
employee’s customer success teams, sales reps, tech support, etc.
Customer experience on the other hand, measures overall customer
perception based on the sum of every touchpoint they interact with
directly or indirectly. This includes preconceived notions someone might
have about a brand as well as direct interactions with a human rep,
marketing communications, press mentions, and more.
