Repeat Customer

Why do we have nothing but love for some brands—and, hate others with a passion? Repeat Customer is all about examining truly great customer experiences: How companies create them, and why superfans love them so much. CEOs, chief customer officers, and industry experts reveal the inside stories of how iconic companies rose to prominence by solving pain points, reimagining touch points, disrupting traditional business models, and staking their entire success on inventive, customer-focused approaches. And die-hard superfans share stories of their (sometimes) zany expressions of brand love. Hosted by Mio Adilman, produced by Zendesk. New episodes every other Monday.

    How Disney Reimagined the Cruise Experience

    When Disney decided to enter the cruise industry in the mid-90s, other cruise lines were skeptical that Disney could succeed, because how do you take the expansive experience of a theme park and plop it on the limited confines of a boat? What they failed to consider was Disney's previous experience disrupting the theme park industry and Disney designers' legendary attention to detail, which came together to create a brand-new cruising category: the family cruise that has something for everyone. Colleen McDaniel of Cruise Critic and Joe Kleiman of InPark Magazine recount Disney's impact on family vacations with the launch of Disney Cruises while marketing consultant and Disney Institute graduate Arnold Tijerina describes the central role customer experience played.
