Customer Perceptions of the Community Experience

What do consumers expect when it comes to CX? What is most important when interacting with a brand, and what is the ideal experience they’re looking for?

Customer experience expectations are ever-changing so understanding what they are is crucial to the success of your brand. Expanding on that: how do you manage customer expectations of CX at a sustainable level?

Rather than assume that branded communities meet the expectations of the consumer, we wanted to figure out the ‘want behind the want’. Do customer expectations around CX align with community offerings?

Does community align with customer expectations, and further, does meeting these expectations through community change the bottom line of your business-focused objectives?

Is community a viable option to:

1. Meet customer expectations
2. Offer a sustainable option for businesses
3. Affect the bottom line of your business objectives

We surveyed more than 600 consumers from three major, English-speaking markets, United States, United Kingdom and Australia, to gain an understanding of their perceptions of the community experience.

We uncovered what customers expect from CX, and then turned their attention explicitly to community. Our aim? To reveal how community can impact business-focused objectives.
