What is Customer Experience(CX) ?
• Social Media brand comments represent a large and valuable source for CX insights.
• CX are internal and personal responses of customers to a brand or service either
through direct usage or relationships with brand representatives and communications
• CX is customers positive or negative feedback regarding how well the brand’s promise
is fulfilled through this experience.
• CX often contains reviews of
– Product or brand performance
– The satisfaction with services and its delivery
– Other aspects of the brand promise, including value, reliability, brand loyalty and the degree of
personal attachment to a brand.
4Measuring the customer experience is imperative
“You’ve got to start with the customer experience
and work back toward the technology – not the other way around.”
~ Steve Jobs

that was 74 points lower than CX
leaders, laggards also had higher
customer frustration, increased
attrition, more negative word-of
mouth, and higher operating
expenses

Forrester’s CX Index enjoyed a higher
total return, higher revenues from
better retention, less price sensitivity,
greater wallet share and positive word-
of-mouth) and lower expenses from
reduced acquisition costs, and fewer
complaints,

social media channels. These are parsed into distinct content themes.
These content themes define what brands meanto customers.

their service sucks.
Your brand is what people say
about you when you’re not in the room.

comments. We convert these texts to a metric called the SEItm

Alpha Marketing Variance v. YA• Alpha’s overall retail sales declined -5.2% versus last year
• While Alpha’s strong values of Convenience and Value showed positive year-over-year gains, the remaining were substantially negative.
• Menu and Food Quality are clearly the weakest factors and must be a priority for resolution in the next year.

SEItm Ratings of Content Attributes for Alpha
• SEItm also has a positive and negative component. Net is the difference. While convenience is Alpha’s strengths, food quality and the menu have the highest relative negative ratings and clearly signal an area in which Alpha needs to improve.

• We can map detailed SEI content into a competitive map to see where Alpha compares to key competitors. We see that, in the words of customers, Alpha’s advantage is in convenience but not so much on food-quality, service and delivery.

Strategic Implications
• For the case study restaurant brand, analysis underscored that traditional strategies of focusing only on
improving efficiencies in their drive-through and online ordering was not sufficient to drive growth.
• Our SEI analysis reveals that (1) service, (2) value, (3) delivery, (4) convenience, (5) food quality and (6)
menu form the underlying SEI drivers and comprise the “brand promise” that Alpha presents to its
customers, from which they give direct feedback on how they’re performing on these. By ignoring menu
diversity and improving food quality, they were driving customers to competition and generating a serious
decline in sales.
• The company launched a massive new ad campaign. This campaign has a “mea culpa” message. They
admitted directly to customers that they had ignored and lost their way on product quality and their menu
was substandard. They told customers directly that they were launching a massive effort to improve their
menu, product quality and the ingredients in their food.
• One year later, Alpha turned its business around from negative growth to positive sales gains.
