Shep Hyken interviews John Ball, the Executive Vice President and General Manager of Customer Workflows at ServiceNow. They discuss how companies can create a great end-to-end customer experience and enhance productivity through process mapping. Top Takeaways: · Customer service is traditionally focused on the engagement layer (how customers make requests) but not on customer operations (getting the job done). However, it is the customer operations that impact the customer's experience the most. · A convenient and frictionless experience is what makes customers want to come back. Strive to create ease and convenience externally and internally. · Process mapping (having structured processes and workflows) empowers businesses to identify duplication of effort from customers and employees. · In 2020, only companies that modernized and digitally transformed processes continued to deliver seamless customer experiences. · Customers are more accepting when problems occur if they are given enough information, even before they ask for it. Quote: "Process mapping the customer engagement and customer operations is how businesses can improve their end-to-end customer experience."
