Today on the podcast I speak with Jenny Courtney a professional working in digital customer experience. Listen as we discuss what led Jenny to this specific career track, as well as what the digital customer experience may look like in 2023. Customer Experience, also known as CX, can be defined as ‘How your customers perceive your brand, based on their interactions with it.’ This makes CX data critical to brand and service management to companies both big and small. Companies capture this data using systems like voice analysis, follow-up emails (think after purchase), text surveys, etc. On the podcast, Jenny discusses both good and bad examples of CX we may all run into daily, as well as opportunities in this career track, and her personal experience working during the pandemic as both corporate professional and Mom, to two sweet little ones.
