Many organisations understand that CX improvements should focus on the ‘moments that matter’ to customers, the experiences that are valued most highly by customers. But there is often little structure and robustness in identifying what these important experiences are and how to improve them in ways that will create real value to customers. Until now.

Our customer experience (CX) transformation process is designed to reshape how businesses understand and engage with their customers. It focuses on understanding what drives customer choices using the Jobs To Be Done methodology, combining these insights with business objectives to create a CX Architecture that aligns with both customer needs and organisational goals. This approach provides a comprehensive roadmap for optimising current experiences and identifying new opportunities for value creation, ultimately leading to sustainable business growth.

The leadership team

“Working with the Purple Shirt team was an incredibly rewarding experience. We gained deep insights into not just what our clients want to achieve, but also what works for them, what doesn’t and the role they want Milford to play in helping them achieve their goals. Our thinking was challenged throughout the process, and as a result, we now have a robust client experience framework, cemented in client research, to not just guide all future client experience enhancements, but also to help us prioritise which enhancements to go after first.”

This was Loadrite's first experience working with external user experience designers and it was a big call for the organisation to make. However, our engagement with Jonathan and Steve from Purple Shirt has been fantastic. Right from the start of the project, they collaborated with us to gain a deep understanding of our users' needs and together we have crafted a truly world-class product that our customers are thrilled to use.
