Holiday Hugs & 5 Trends Affecting Customer Experience

There is a retail clothing store I frequent in Fairfield County, called Mitchells. The owner, Jack Mitchell is the Chairman of five highly successful, family-owned clothing stores in Connecticut, New York and California. He has written a book call “Hug your Customer” and Jack’s methodology has been the subject of a Harvard Business School Case Study. Of course the “hug” is a metaphor and, in this third generation-owned store, it means “any large or small deed that genuinely shows you care.” However, that doesn’t stop Jack from also giving his well-known customers a real hug when he sees them.
Jack has a winning formula that transcends the obvious customer support or service and creates a customer experience (CX). He is convinced that any and all types of businesses can profit by using the “hug” method. I have always been a big believer in looking at other industries to find more creative ways to work in financial services and stimulate your creative thinking, so reading Jack’s book did just that. Check out the 5 trends we see effecting Customer Experience in  2016 in the ninth edition.
