Case Study
How we made a difference
Problem Statement
A large automotive company with an international footprint was required to align their local CX strategy with that of their organisation’s international standards.
Project Objective
Establish a Customer Experience (CX) Strategy for a large automotive sales company and their dealer network, aligned to the requirements of their Global CX programme.
Approach
Redflank conducted a comprehensive Customer Experience Assessment which included interviews with senior management, staff, customers, suppliers, and dealerships, as well as the review of existing customer experience measurement tools, related processes, and systems. The Assessment was conducted against the requirements of the company’s Global Customer Experience programme and highlighted priorities for local implementation of systems, training, and processes.
Following the Assessment, recommendations were made to senior management regarding the development and implementation of their local Customer Experience strategy at Head Office and throughout the dealer network. Once the strategy was agreed upon with management, Redflank continued to work with the client to communicate the strategy to all stakeholders and drive the activities required for successful implementation.
