Despite all the effort and money poured into CX tools by
companies, customer satisfaction continues to decline. In the
United States, it is now at its lowest level in nearly two decades,
per data from the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI).
Consumer sentiment is also at its lowest in more than two
decades. This negative dynamic in the customer-centric
ecosystem in which we now live creates the challenge of figuring
out what is going wrong and what companies can do to fix it.
As proven using time series data over the last 30 years, customer
satisfaction is shown to be a positive predictor of stock market
performance that reliably outperforms the S&P 500. Satisfaction
affects numerous accounting and financial performance factors
that are attractive to companies, such as productivity, market
share, revenue, sales growth, cash flows, profitability, return on
investment (ROI), cost of capital, stock price, shareholder value,
stock market risk, and more.
