  1. How can leaders win and optimize investment in CX? (feat. Jeannie Walters, Mark Raffan and Alain Méric)

    How can leaders win and optimize investment in CX? (feat. Jeannie Walters, Mark Raffan and Alain Méric)

    On this episode, we explore strategies for building a compelling business case for customer experience (CX) investment — and how to optimize the budget you’ve secured. According to Forrester’s Budget Planning Guide 2025: Customer Experience, while 99% of CX decision-makers list CX improvements as a top priority of senior executives, only 40% anticipate they’ll receive significant budget increases. As a CX leader, you must combine evidence-based arguments with emotional appeals to secure the investment needed for success. And then, whether or not you procure the resources you’re looking for, a new set of challenges arise when it comes to optimizing the budget you are granted. CX leaders must excel at making the most of limited resources, demonstrating ROI and leveraging emerging technologies effectively.  Our expert guests share key strategies on how to navigate the process of budget planning, negotiation and optimization to keep pace.  Listen for the actionable insights of Jeannie Walters, CX expert, host of the Experience Action podcast and CEO of Experience Investigators; Mark Raffan, negotiations expert, host of the Negotiations Ninja podcast and CEO of Negotiations Ninja; and Alain Méric, vice president of sales at TELUS Digital. Access Forrester's Budget Planning Guide 2025: Customer Experience for insights on where to increase, decrease or experiment with your CX budgets for 2025.

    Note: Since publishing this episode, we’ve rebranded to TELUS Digital. On this episode, we ask big questions about how customer loyalty is formed — and how AI can be leveraged to build stronger connections with customers. According to TechSee, a visual customer experience solutions provider and technology partner of TELUS Digital, more than one in three consumers in the United States don’t consider themselves to be loyal to brands and would switch if it proved beneficial to them. It is here where brands have an opportunity to capitalize on the growing demand for personalization, speed and convenience. By exploring the emotional aspects that shape consumer behavior, our expert guests provide actionable strategies for the use of AI to foster true customer loyalty.. Listen for the informative insights of customer experience keynote speakers and experts Shep Hyken, author of I’ll Be Back: How to Get Customers to Come Back Again and Again and host of the Amazing Business Radio podcast; and Colin Shaw, author of The Intuitive Customer: 7 Imperatives For Moving Your Customer Experience to the Next Level and co-host of The Intuitive Customer podcast.

    Note: Since publishing this episode, we’ve rebranded to TELUS Digital.

Today, customers demand speed and efficiency. It is up to brands to rise to that challenge. Research from HubSpot indicates that 9 out of 10 customers consider an immediate response from customer service to be “essential” or “very important”, with 6 out of 10 defining “immediate” as a response in under 10 minutes. Through real-world examples and actionable insights, our expert guests share how to identify potential areas of improvement and refine CX processes to exceed expectations, eliminate friction and build lasting loyalty.

    How can brands deliver experiences that create loyal customer advocates? (feat. Jay Baer, Brittany Hodak and Rajiv Dhand)

    Note: Since publishing this episode, we’ve rebranded to TELUS Digital. On this episode, we discuss a longstanding focus for customer experience (CX) leaders — loyalty — and the role of CX delivery in creating customer advocates and word of mouth. According to Nielsen, 88% of consumers trust recommendations from friends and family over all other forms of advertising. Despite the evidence that word of mouth, facilitated through exceptional customer experiences, remains a pivotal factor in shaping business outcomes, many businesses do not have a defined word of mouth strategy. Our expert guests share their perspectives on how to transform satisfied customers into loyal advocates. Along the way, they discuss brand ‘superfans’ and how to introduce unexpected moments along the customer journey — called ‘talk triggers’ — to prompt proactive word of mouth. Listen for the compelling insights of Jay Baer, author of Talk Triggers: The Complete Guide to Creating Customers with Word-of-Mouth; Brittany Hodak, author of Creating Superfans: How To Turn Your Customers Into Lifelong Advocates; and Rajiv Dhand, regional vice president for Asia Pacific and Africa at TELUS Digital.
