CX Index evaluates the Chinese brands that deliver the best customer
experience
BEIJING--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 30, 2015--
In the age of the customer – a 20-year business cycle in which the most
successful enterprises will reinvent themselves to systematically
understand and serve increasingly powerful customers – improving
customer experience is a top priority for businesses in China. However,
according to the Customer
Experience Index, China 2015 from Forrester
Research, none of the companies surveyed rated excellent, and 80
percent are delivering merely mediocre customer experience.
Based on a survey of 9,000 Chinese consumers, the CX
Index™ measured and ranked 60 brands in China, across 5 industries,
on the quality of their customer experience and impact on customer
loyalty. Of the five industries, the financial services sector emerged
as leaders, while traditional retail and eCommerce brought up the rear
in the brand rankings.
“With only 15% of the brands evaluated in the 2015 China CX Index rated
as good, brands in China have multiple opportunities to improve the
quality of their customer experience to build and sustain long-term
customer loyalty,” said Ryan Hart, Forrester Research principal analyst
serving customer experience professionals. “Meeting the basic needs of
customers is the first step before embarking on loyalty programs, which
could lead to winning customer emotions by making them feel more valued.
Customer experience leaders made customers feel valued almost twice as
often as CX laggards did.”
