The Psychology of Customer Experience

The Psychology of Customer Experience attendees learn how neuroscience is tapping into the needs of buyers, and learn how to switch to 2.0 thinking to adapt to the digital future.

What research is used by name brands such as Coca Cola, Apple, Starbucks, Amazon and Lexus to increase buying behavior and loyalty? Does neuromarketing really work? Can you tap into the unconscious needs of your buyers to create lasting loyalty? Drawing on current research, this breakthrough program sheds light on how brands are really built and marketing programs created. It offers strategies you can use to immediately differentiate your products and services. The front line will learn what specific actions they need to take on a daily basis to create experiences that capture the hearts of their customers, and leaders will be able to apply the skills and tools to create loyalty among their teams.

Takeaway How-To's:

  • Help shape buying behavior with your clients.
  • Why surveys and focus groups might not be helpful.
  • Use the top four psychological needs to encourage your customers to return for life.
  • The secret weapons of brands such as Southwest, Westin and Disney.
  • Apply Cialdini's top influence strategies.
  • Use Six Trait Signals to understand the psychological buying style of your customers.

"She captured the hearts and minds of our group and left them with the belief that the changes they are experiencing can be positive, no matter what. She did that by her credibility, and then with just side-splitting humor and compelling stories that took them from laughter to tears. They learned exactly what skills they needed, and practiced them right in the session, and actually started developing the mindset. In the end, she led them to rekindling their passion and remembering why they entered their jobs in the first place. She also addressed our group from Quebec in French-much appreciated."
