Businesses that prioritise CX recover faster from pandemic

More than half of businesses consider improving CX a top priority.

A new survey showed that businesses that prioritised customer experience (CX) investment recovered faster from the pandemic.

According to a joint research by Zendesk, Inc. and Ecosystm, 88% of businesses that increased CX spending during the pandemic experienced early recovery and even improved their business during the challenging time.

“The research shows signs of a two-speed economy emerging in Singapore, in that businesses investing in CX are projecting early recovery, whilst companies that drop CX spend are seeing slower recovery timelines,” Zendesk said.

Additionally, 56% of businesses considered improving their CX as a top priority.

“This suggests businesses that have placed a strong focus on CX are expecting to accelerate their growth and pandemic recovery,” Zendesk said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
