"Customer experience is defined as the sum total of conscious events, as as a coordinated series of interactions between a customer and a brand to accomplish anything. Above all words - a customer experience is defined by the customer, for the customer, at each touch-point, each time. -- Esteban KolskyContinua.
...
Kolsky believes that the customer experiences must be chosen and validated by the customer. He does not believe that the customer experience is offered by the company. The company does however need to build an infrastructure ... to allow the customer to do whatever they want, whenever they want, and however they want. Customer experience is not a onetime event, and every single interaction is going to be different.
...
The customer owns the customer experience. Some will argue that depending on the industry, business regulations, compliance and governance will not allow companies to broadly deliver this level of customer defined experiential ubiquity. The main point however is that controlling the customer experience is perhaps an illusion. Customers are more educated, more empowered and have more options available to them unlike ever before. Customers want choices, but to engage, they must trust the brand. Companies have a choice and the smart ones choose to better understand their customer's needs and then rigorously focus on iterating and improving their products and services to consistently deliver on their brand promise."
