It’s no secret that when it comes to support, customer expectations are higher than ever before – but how are support leaders and teams adapting to these increased demands? Our recent report showed that while 73% of support leaders say customer expectations are increasing, only 42% of them believe that they’re actually meeting those expectations. That’s a significant gap between expectations and reality – and one that it’s all too easy for your support team to fall into.

Brands used to look for a commerce platform that could do everything. But over time, one vendor was no longer enough to meet a brand’s needs, so they added, and added, and added— and now it's essential that these vendors work well together. That’s composable, and it’s important to get it right. Customers and your board expect you to be in new channels and to adapt quickly to market change.

I’m a strong proponent of including a short description of the customer persona on each journey map. (Otherwise, how do you know whose journey is being represented?) That practice often brings up a question during client conversations: To what degree should our personas represent different races, genders, religions, sexual orientations, etc.? It’s Black History Month here in the United States, and that seems the perfect time to answer this question in a public forum.
