Someone once said Marketing creates the brand promise and CX delivers it. But too often there’s a gap between the two that’s eroding customer loyalty and business performance. Nick Zeisler is a Lean Six Sigma expert and Professor of Practice in Michigan State University’s Customer Experience Management Masters of Science program. In this episode Nick shares some valuable insights including: – the significant concept of ‘Brand Alignment’ was introduced, highlighting the imperative of aligning a company’s customer experience delivery with its brand promise. – the importance of continuous improvement in process engineering was emphasized, advocating for a customer-centric approach to Lean Six Sigma prioritizing projects based on customer impact rather than traditional resource-focused methods – loyalty as a process beyond the initial purchase was underscored, with the suggestion that it’s influenced by the consistency of the customer experience and alignment with the brand promise
