Digital services are transforming customer engagement<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>&ldquo;In many ways, the progression of customer engagement is a reflection of technology&rsquo;s ever-increasing presence in our society. Access to digital services is redefining our opportunity to reach customers at an even deeper level.&rdquo; &mdash;Scott Guthrie<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Look no further than your own digital life and it&rsquo;s clear that apps, devices, social media, modern POS systems, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices empower you to connect with your favorite brands in any way you desire. In this connected world, business doors are open to you 24\/7.<\/p>\n<p>Just <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics\/customer-driven\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">look at the numbers<\/a>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>2 billion active social media accounts<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>2.4 billion smart devices by 2018<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>3 billion active Internet users<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>80 billion connected IoT devices by 2025<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For businesses that embrace digital transformation, this evolution presents a tremendous opportunity. While technology becomes more innovative, predictive, and accessible, it enables companies to create more responsive, personalized experiences than ever before.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Every employee can and should be more empowered<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>&ldquo;Empower your employees: behind every amazing customer experience are employees who deliver them.&rdquo; &mdash;Jujhar Singh<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Equipping sales, marketing, and service organizations, including mobile resources, with a unified CRM technology is essential to next-generation intelligent customer engagement. When employees have the right tools, resources, and information at their fingertips, they are not only more productive, but are also empowered to deliver exceptional customer experiences&mdash;and inspire brand loyalty in return. Every customer-facing resource should have the information and guidance they need to serve their customers according to their unique needs and preferences.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pri-blog-snippet-4\">\n<h3>Find out how successful companies are empowering employees through intelligent service technology<\/h3>\n<p class=\"snippet-4-links\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics\/customer-driven\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Get Customer Driven<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><b>3. The Internet of Things cannot be ignored<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>&ldquo;We&rsquo;re excited about the predictive nature of the data we can get from IoT.&rdquo; &mdash;<\/i><i>Paul Spruiell, NAVCO<\/i><\/p>\n<p>The business world has long anticipated the promise of how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics-365\/blog\/2016\/06\/06\/transform-field-service-with-iot\/\">IoT technology will revolutionize customer service<\/a>. This is no longer a dream; the intersection of IoT with core business strategies is a reality that many companies are leveraging with remarkable success. While greater numbers of smart, connected products are produced and deployed in multiple industries, the ability to transform the explosion of data from these devices will lead to even better products and customer experiences.<\/p>\n<p>For NAVCO&mdash;the largest privately held security integrator in the US and emerging thought leader in the area of IoT&mdash;that could mean predicting hard drive failures and opening new revenue streams. As Paul Spruiell predicts, &ldquo;We&rsquo;re going to go to your location and fix something you didn&rsquo;t know was broken.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Blendtec, which designs and manufactures &ldquo;the last blender you&rsquo;ll ever need,&rdquo; is equally bullish on the power of IoT. &ldquo;The personalization of our devices is very important to us,&rdquo; says Sven Haynes. &ldquo;Right now, we have some gamification &hellip; but where we really want to go is to connect that blender to the Internet of Things.&rdquo; He imagines a blender that helps you crowd-source recipes, get nutritional data, give the company feedback, and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>4. Customer experience will eclipse product and price<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>&ldquo;If you think that there&rsquo;s been a business revolution over the last decade plus, you&rsquo;re wrong. What we&rsquo;ve had is a digital communications revolution, which has transformed not only how we communicate &hellip; but also the expectations of that communication and whom we trust. It&rsquo;s also transformed how we create, distribute, and consume information. It has impacted every single institution on the planet.&rdquo; &mdash;Paul Greenberg<\/i><\/p>\n<p>To purchase or to walk away? In sales interactions, the customer has always had complete control. Yet the factors motivating those sales decisions today are far different from the motivators of even 10 years ago. Traditionally, products and services were sold separately. Employees did most of the work. And the sale took place in one transactional moment through one human interaction.<\/p>\n<p>Today, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics\/customer-driven\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">86 percent of customers will pay more<\/a>&nbsp;for a better customer experience. In fact, customer experience is expected to overtake product and price as the key brand differentiator. In today&rsquo;s service economy, businesses sell services, experiences, <i>and outcomes <\/i>in addition to products. This has transformed stand-alone transactional experiences into lifetime customer relationships, which translates into greater brand loyalty and higher lifetime value.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pri-blog-snippet-4\">\n<h3>Go beyond videos and download bonus materials for Customer Driven<\/h3>\n<p class=\"snippet-4-links\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics\/customer-driven\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Get the extra resources<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><b>5. Customer engagement is an ongoing commitment<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>&ldquo;Customer engagement is the ongoing interactions between company and customer, offered by the company, chosen by the customer.&rdquo;<\/i> &mdash;Paul Greenberg<\/p>\n<p>When we talk about building loyalty, advocacy, and lasting relationships, customer engagement sure sounds like a marriage. But true customer engagement isn&rsquo;t determined by the amount of time and effort a customer makes; it&rsquo;s not unidirectional. It&rsquo;s something altogether different because engagement levels vary from moment to moment, from casual to intense, and from infrequent to frequent.<\/p>\n<p>And here&rsquo;s why you should care about engaging your customers: fully engaged customers spend more and continue spending. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gallup.com\/opinion\/gallup\/173942\/gallup-examines-state-american-consumer.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">When compared to average consumers<\/a>, fully engaged customers represent a 23 percent premium of wallet share, profitability, and revenue. The flip side is just as striking: disengaged customers spend 13 percent less than an average consumer.<\/p>\n<p>The takeaway: customers want to feel <i>valued<\/i>. They want you to know who they are. They want you to give them convenient options and products and experiences that prove you understand their behaviors and needs.<\/p>\n<p>To thrive in the new service economy, organizations must leverage all the technology, data, and innovation available&mdash;and provide customers with nothing less than the personalized, proactive and predictive experiences they demand and deserve.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pri-blog-snippet-4\">\n<h3>Experience Customer Driven as if you were there<\/h3>\n<p class=\"snippet-4-links\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics\/customer-driven\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Visit the site now<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On June 7, Microsoft hosted Customer Driven , a virtual event examining the changing technology landscape and the impact of digital transformation on customer engagement in the new service economy.
