Improving the multi-channel customer experience

I recently read that that 40% of organisations cite 'complexity' as the greatest barrier to improving multi-channel customer experience (hint: it was here).This may at first seem a large proportion of companies who are struggling to either specify, deliver or improve on their multi-channel efforts... But perhaps its not entirely unexpected for several reasons:

1. Understanding the multi-channel customer IS complex

2. The technology to implement it can also be complex to a marketer or other senior exec who has not grown up with it.

3. There is no senior stakeholder commitment to push forward change. Perhaps why only 28% of companies say there is ownership of the customer experience at board or ‘c- level’ (same source)
