Elevated expectations remain, and organizations need to adjust their operations on a strategic level and have cross-departmental alignment to be able to provide for personalized offers and experiences to their customers. Purpose-built and intelligent marketing create appealing, real-time interactions which boost profitability and strengthen brand loyalty. Analytics and AI have been helping companies to champion customer experience by allowing the personalized approach to add more to their customer conversations and experience. This report from MIT Sloan Management Review Connections is an example of this very fact and sets a benchmark for companies lagging behind to follow suit\u201d says&nbsp;<strong>Celal Kavuklu, Customer Advisory Director for Middle East and Africa at SAS<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI emerges as the power tool of CX<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CX Champions lead the pack in terms of sophisticated use of analytics and AI. More than 80% of CX Champions make significant use of analytics throughout the customer journey, from research to adoption to ongoing engagement. In fact, Champions are more than three times more likely to rely on AI than the ones the study called \u201cLaggards,\u201d where it\u2019s less than 40%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Champions are also ahead of the game when it comes to adoption of CX tools. In fact, some tools will be nearly ubiquitous for CX Champions within the next two years:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>86% will have adopted personalization technology.<\/li><li>84% will have adopted real-time data collection.<\/li><li>81% will have adopted AI-powered chatbots.<\/li><li>72% will have adopted connected omnichannel experiences.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The research also found that Champions are significantly more likely to employ \u201csmart\u201d approaches to improve CX, including smart assistants embedded in goods and services. They also expect to outpace the competition in their use of edge computing, using its ability to boost real-time analytics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps most eye-opening is that organizations with the poorest-quality CX are more likely to be using cutting-edge VR technology than are businesses with top-rated CX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Digital strategy and collaboration key<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strong CX performance isn\u2019t predicated on having a single executive in charge of the activity. Instead, research shows that tying CX strategy to a company\u2019s digital strategy makes the biggest performance difference. Doing so ensures the creation of enterprise-wide CX goals and key performance indicators (KPIs) that cascade through the organization. Almost 75% of Champions \u201cstrongly agree\u201d that their CX strategy and technologies are an integral part of their organizations\u2019 digital transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By elevating CX strategy to the level of corporate and digital strategy, CX Champions can build highly empowered cross-functional or decentralized teams. To keep everyone on the same page, 70% of CX Champions also have documented workflows of their CX processes. The majority of CX Champions coordinate CX activity through collaborative software and platforms that allow everyone in the process to work from a single point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More than 60% of Champions are currently focused on giving such teams more authority, versus only 43% of Laggards. In two years\u2019 time, 93% of Champions will be relying on these teams, according to the survey findings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CX Leaders: Financial services, retail and IT\/telecom<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The lion\u2019s share of CX Champions are IT\/telecom companies and this sector is the most aggressive user of many CX technology tools. Despite aggressive plans for CX technology investments, financial services entities have yet to move ahead of industries at large. Retail and consumer goods companies, on the other hand, are significantly ahead of industries overall in use of smart assistants embedded in phones and tablets, and slightly ahead in use of live chat, personalization technology, use of AI chatbots, and providing immersive experiences. But they are still behind other industries in developing interconnected omnichannel experiences &#8211; a must-have in the minds of most consumers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nearly 50% of businesses in the financial services, retail\/consumer goods, and IT\/telecom sectors plan to up their CX technology investments by more than 25% over the next two years. About 10% of businesses in these industries plan to increase their investments by more than 75%. Some even plan on doubling their CX technology investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information, visit SAS&nbsp;<a
