This can crate in your customers mind a not-so-good perception of you.
Adobe, SAP, Salesforce possess the technologies to deliver an all-round customer experience. They offer businesses a complete solution to create an excellent customer experience in the market. Adobe along with Magento addressed all the core issues in the customer journey.
One of the biggest arguments the acquisition provides is the difference in their overall ecosystem of work, the technology used by both and the scope of their marketplace. However, Magento being a 10 plus years an old company has establishes name for its company around the world by providing services to companies all around the globe. Its clients are some of the biggest enterprise.
. To paint a very specific picture for you, when someone is on your website, do you know who they are and every interaction they’ve had with you? Do you know how to target them with the right message at the right time based on all of their interactions? Can you carry that through an individual customer’s relationship from inception through retention? These are all possible to do today, and some customers already do so to varying degrees. However, it’s difficult, really difficult and very expensive.
Now what does it mean for the customers? It means that both the companies Adobe and Magento are making sure to pure a consistent and seamless experience for their customers through constant hard work than you or anybody else can do today. In simple terms it means, they know their target market, their wants and need, they know the strategies to interact and engage their customers.  Can you do all of this? Some customers are already doing some of these in one way or another. Although it’s not an easy task, it’s highly costly and demand time and experience.
Your success depends upon your efficiency and how effectively you deliver the customers expectation. For example, take a proactive approach towards the customers need and address them instead of asking again and again, be quick in delivering to the customer what they want, know your customers want instead of asking over and over again. Adobe’s goals is to provide a platform for its customers which let them create experiences that are customer-centered and personalized according to the need of the customer across various channels.
Clark got the tree he wanted but faces several challenges on his way of finding the perfect tree and Christmas bliss but manages to find it through various funny events. Adobe also got an e-commerce platform it wanted. But it will face many challenged like Clark too. The way Adobe delivers the best customer experience will determine the future of the company.
Even with the same tree, the outcome may vary greatly. No one can predict how it turns but it does have chances of turning into a great story of the time.
