You’ve heard it before – “the customer is king”.
Some customers even think they are different from the rest and deserve special treatment or personalized experiences with your brand.
Instead of your CS team getting frustrated, maybe it’s worth considering that these customers might be right?
This is especially true when you consider research from McKinsey that says: “Personalization drives performance and better customer outcomes. Companies that grow faster drive 40% more of their revenue from personalization than their slower-growing counterparts”.
So, it’s clear that personalized experiences are an essential part of expansion revenue growth, but what exactly are they?
What are personalized experiences anyway?
These days, in order to put your company ahead of the competition, you need to think more about how you can tailor your product and service to specific customer needs.
Customers are no longer satisfied with generic ‘one size fits all’ solutions and interactions.
Instead, your customers demand personalized experiences that are based on their unique needs and preferences.
Failure to embrace personalization can lead to unsatisfactory experiences for your customers and the potential for them to churn as a result.
Creating personalized experiences for your customers doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right tools in place (such as CSP technology) to support you with your personalization initiatives, you can expect to see several time-saving benefits, including;
✅Increased adoption and engagement
✅ Reduced time to value (TTV)
✅ Build loyalty and trust
✅ Improved retention rates
The alternative option which sees you persist with a highly impersonal and ineffective ‘generic’ experience for all your customers will see you encounter multiple issues, such as;
❌ ‘one size fits all’ customer journeys
❌ Your CSMs reinventing the wheel each time
❌ Deeply impersonal interactions with customers
❌ Limited understanding of their true progress and sentiment
To combat these issues and enjoy the benefits that personalized customer experiences can offer, you should take the time to consider how a customer success platform (CSP) – such as Custify – can help you make changes that dramatically improve your entire customer journey.

Why you should download our eBook
These days, CSMs aren’t just ‘churn busters’ – they’re responsible for everything from product adoption to customer retention and even revenue expansion.
However, there are only so many hours in a day, and the risk is that without proper systems and processes in place, CSMs won’t be able to meet all their objectives.
This will result in burned-out and underperforming CSMs, higher-than-forecast levels of churn, and significant reductions in growth through expansion revenue.
It doesn’t have to be this way, though.
Our Eguide to creating personalized customer experiences – the latest in a 6-part series that covers the entire customer journey – gives you everything you need to radically improve the situation both for your CSMs and your customers.
The mini-guide goes step by step into how you can use a CSP like Custify – one of Europe’s leading customer success platforms – to overhaul CX, improve customer satisfaction, boost revenue, and reduce customer churn.
