Year over year, businesses have professed their commitment to customer centricity, while investing in technology designed to augment interactions in all channels.
Year over year, this desire to transform the customer experience has fallen short. Citing ongoing pain points like long wait times and repetitive questions and new challenges related to AI, the typical consumer complained that experiences were regressing.
Is the tide finally turning? CMP's new Consumer Preferences Survey reveals reason for optimism, with consumers expressing citing improvement to key aspects of the CX.
Unfortunately, it still reveals a lot of challenges, particularly as it relates to confidence in AI- and digital-based experiences. If the promise of an "agentic" frontline is to become a reality in 2030, much work is still to be done.
