No matter how many departments your organization has, to your customers, it’s all the same business. They expect a cohesive experience across all touch-points with your company, regardless of whether it’s related to advertising, customer service, social presence, or the actual product or service you provide. The satisfaction of your customers, and thereby the success of your organization, depends in no small part on your ability to create a cohesive and consistently high-quality cross-channel experience. In this presentation, you will gain a better understanding of the different ways your customers might interact with your business. We will show how you can map out these touchpoints and help drive the creation of a cohesive experience across the various channels. We will show you how to navigate the political waters within your business to implement a true cross-channel design, which will build great experiences for your customers, regardless of how they are engaging with your business.

Business
Not everyone’s boss is Michael Scott
…They are more like David Wallace.
We must break down the silos.
We must cross-pollenate
We must work more like a hive
…with a unified vision of what we’re trying to do.
Some Examples
Add a DVD to my queue on the website
Told me when to expect the DVD
DVDs arrives in the mail
…and I can tell them when something went wrong
Confirmed when they received the DVD
I can also stream movies on my Laptop
I can resume the movie on the web
…or through the app
…on Xbox, tablet, smartphone, laptop, or TV.
Asked me how my experience was afterwards
Compensated me when something went wrong
…and I can tell them when something went wrong

So I wanted to watch Game of Thrones…
There is no way to add HBO on the web
