Delivering Superior Customer Experience in China
The Essential Ingredient to Building Customer Loyalty
Chinese customers are becoming increasingly demanding with respect to customer experience; however, consumer and retail companies are failing to keep pace with rising expectations. How can companies attract and keep the increasingly sophisticated Chinese consumer?
Relationships between Chinese customers and consumer and retail companies are constantly evolving. Technology advancement and penetration, as evidenced by increased internet adoption and social media participation, have transformed the way companies interact with customers.
