2021 Customer Experience ROI Study
This is a nice study by Watermark Consulting examining the impact of good customer experience on the company value indicator the majority of CEOs care about the most: share price.
The approach is simple in theory (there is quite a lot of work to do of course):
- Identify companies with good and bad CX using a variety of industry studies: Forrester, Temkin Group, etc.
- Track their share price.
- Compare the two.
The results could not be more clear:
- CX Leaders achieve higher total returns than the average company (S&P 500)
- CX Laggards total returns actually shrink over time.
