A “best” to “next” practice training event delivered by one of the world’s leading experts in Customer Experience Management and Customer Loyalty
Gartner research 91% of senior marketers expect Customer Experience Management (CEM) to be the primary basis for competitive advantage within 2 years. The impact is simply massive! Forrester and the University of Michigan both found that top CXi companies outperformed stock indices by a factor of 3 to 4. A 1% increase in the share price of a S&P500 company is worth hundreds of millions of USD. The size of the CEM market is also accelerating fast and expected to almost triple to 8 ½ billion USD in the next 4 years.
The market leaders:
Do you know how to deliver against all of the above? Our surveys show 97% of respondents cannot do it.

We run customer experience conferences focussed on improving every aspect of customer retention using customer experience strategy with leading experts in customer experience from around the world.
With year on year attendance growth at our customer experience conferences, we have an impressive track record in attracting major brands and industry experts in delivering and supporting our landmark events.
I have had the privilege of working with Maggie and the Focus Group over the past 7 years as a speaker, delegate and industry specialist. The CEW conference (now presented on three continents) is an accolade to Maggie’s incredible connections, pulse on the rapidly evolving customer space and a dedicated passion to link, share and inform. Few conferences are organised as professionally, with as much attention to detail and personalisation as those directed by Maggie and her team.

Fantastic workshop. Inspiring speaker with great insight as to how customer experience management should be delivered within a corporate. We have worked with Charles on multiple occasions as part of our programme to create the leading customer focussed organisation in our market. Charles’s work was a fundamental part in helping us to think differently and to deliver a fundamental part of our vision.
