#NoBullshitCX #20yearsFuturelab “Numbers don’t take decisions, leaders do.” One of our clients is very numbers oriented in their CX approach. Whenever we discuss their Voice of the Customer (VoC)results, they want to look at all possible cross-sections: by segment, by brand, by day of the week that their customers birthday falls on, you name it. I am obviously joking, but it represents what we often get at companies: the more numbers, the better.

They ended up driving 50 miles each way across the scorching Texas desert to Abilene for dinner, even though none of them wanted to go. They all thought everyone else wanted to go, so they reluctantly agreed.

Brands used to look for a vendor who could do everything. Over time, one vendor was no longer enough to meet a brand’s needs, and they added, added and added. Now they need all their vendors to work well together. That’s composable, and only some will make the cut. As customers — and your board — expect you to be in new channels and to rapidly adapt to shifts in the market, the need for true composability is more crucial than ever before.

Once upon a time, in the vast realm of online commerce, there lived a humble checkout button overlooked by many.
