Customer experience management (CEM) aims to strategically manage a customer's entire experience with a company. While customer relationship management (CRM) focuses on reducing costs through processes and technology, CEM prioritizes customer needs, expectations, and perceived sentiment to improve loyalty. CEM collects customer data from various sources, analyzes it to gain insights, and provides reporting capabilities. It takes a customer-centric view to integrate customer indicators across the organization and prevent issues from falling through cracks. Proper CEM requires aligning employee behavior with brand values, addressing attitudes that shape service, and equipping employees to deliver the promised customer experience.
3. What is CEM?
• CRM methods, processes and technology reduced service and operation
costs. OK for companies, not necessarily for customers
Customers expect increasingly more from the companies they do business
with
Loyalty is driven primarily by company’s interactions with its customers

•
Client Experience Management
“The process of strategically managing a customer’s entire experience
with a product or company”
4. Client Experience Management
At the end, the goal of Customer
Experience Management is to move
customers from satisfied to loyal.
6. • "Customer relationship management (CRM) is a
model for managing a company’s interactions with
current and future customers. It involves using
technology to organize, automate, and
synchronize sales, marketing, customer service,
and technical support."
Whereas
• “Client experience management (CEM) is the
collection of processes a company uses to track,
oversee and organize every interaction between a
customer and the organization throughout the
customer life cycle.”
7. CEM vs CRM
While CRM strategies and solutions are
designed to focus on product, price and
enterprise process, with minimal focus
on customer need and desire, CEM takes
into account also customer expectations
and the value of customer’s perceived
sentiment.
CEM is a strategy that focuses the
operations and processes of a business
around the needs of the individual
customer, involving strategy, integration of
technology, orchestrating business models
and brand management.
“CRM comes after the experience and CEM works hard on anticipating it.”

12. Customer Experience: It Takes More than Good
Customer Service
If you take all the different aspects of a commoditised world then
everything is pretty similar:
similar products,
similar people,
similar technology &
similar pricing.
The differences are in the brand, the perception and the feel of a
company, all of which are delivered through the customer
experience.
It’s the customer experience that differentiates a company
