No longer do markets exist solely as a place to purchase essentials.

A keynote speaker and featured columnist for CustomerThink, he has worked across various industries, advising businesses on the field. Ian\u2019s first book, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a class=\"acefone_web_click\" href=\"https:\/\/ijgolding.com\/ians-book\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Customer What?: The honest and practical guide to customer experience<\/a>,<\/span><\/i> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">was published in April 2018.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some insights from our exclusive interview with Ian wherein he gives tips to businesses\u2014new and established\u2014on how to tackle customer experiences effectively.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Ques 1: Why did you choose customer experience as your career?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am not sure I chose CX as a career\u2014I\u2019m absolutely certain it chose me. I, like many other CX professionals, had been practising customer-centric &#8216;thinking\u2019 many years before CX became recognised as a profession.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The big turning point in my career was the time I spent working at General Electric in the \u201990s. Still led by Jack Welch, GE was a wonderful example of customer-centricity at the time. Jack had a huge influence on what I have done ever since.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Ques 2: According to you, what is the difference between a good and a great customer experience strategy?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is an interesting question. It\u2019s difficult to provide a concrete answer generically\u2014it <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">would very much depend on the specific circumstances. However, if an organisation has a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">desire to become sustainably customer-centric, defining and embedding a customer <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">experience strategy is a core component of doing so.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acefone.com\/blog\/learnings-from-customer-experience-statistics\/\">CX strategy <\/a>defines what the intended experience is\u2013how an organisation wants its customers to feel every time they interact with them. I would define a good strategy is one that has been clearly articulated and understood but is not yet consistent or mature enough to lead to differentiation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <\/span>great<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> strategy is one that has been embedded in the way the organisation works, enabling it to differentiate not just on its products and services, but on the whole experience!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Ques 3: You started your career as an auditor, and today, you are a founder and CEO of Customer Experience Consultancy Ltd. How would you describe this journey?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has certainly been a rich and rewarding one. Having spent 17 years in corporate organisations, I learned that my brain was wired to do &#8216;the right thing\u2019\u2014for customers as well as my colleagues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, I learned the hard way that organisations do not always want people to \u2018do the right thing\u2019. All too often, I was told to do things that would benefit my organisation in the short term, but to the detriment of the customer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This I found very difficult to do. I would regularly challenge thinking\u2014very often to my own detriment. In fact, I\u2019ve been belittled and patronised for my desire to do what\u2019s right for customers. I\u2019d end up thinking I was the anomaly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But over the last 8 years, I\u2019ve come to realise that changing the way traditional organisations think and act is incredibly challenging. I consider myself to be hugely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with hundreds of firms, of all shapes and sizes, in 44 countries around the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I can now combine my experiences of <\/span>doing<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> CX on the inside, to support businesses to <\/span>do<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> CX from the outside. Additionally, I am hugely passionate about supporting individuals\u2014my fellow CX practitioners.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Ques 4: What difficulties did you face in the beginning when advising companies on delivering better CX?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There were many, actually. It all depends on the specific scenario, but the top three are:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lack of support from and involvement of leadership<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>:<\/strong> Very often, fellow practitioners <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">needed my help or support, but the ultimate decision-makers were not on <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">board.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lack of knowledge<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>:<\/strong> CX has become a science. Firms sometimes think they know what CX is all about, but bringing the science to life in full can be very eye-opening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lack of awareness<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>:<\/strong> Many businesses aren\u2019t aware of brilliant CX professionals who can bring in genuine specialist knowledge to the table.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Ques 5: How do you think businesses can provide the best customer experiences effectively?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By <\/span><strong>keeping it simple<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! While I do describe CX as a science, it\u2019s no rocket science. People tend to radically overcomplicate things, and as a result, fail to realise any demonstrable change.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a simple but structured approach can be adopted, a customer experience focus can completely change the fortune of an organisation. That is why I am such an advocate for the need to embed a customer experience framework. Structure and rigour are essential.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ian Golding has a lifetime of experience in the field of customer service. By witnessing and initiating client-centric changes himself, he\u2019s realised what works best and what doesn\u2019t. He is also very inclined to help out others in the field.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The insights from this interview can really help you boost customer service, and consequently, customer relationships, for your company. In no time, you\u2019ll be reaping higher profits and improved productivity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What do my customers want?
