Our mission is to make the world a more customer-friendly place.
Having run some of the largest and smallest customer experience programmes on the planet, we have learned what works and what doesn't in the land of customer-centricity.
So we captured this knowledge in an approach which breaks with the traditional consultancy model where new clients pay full rate for the same templates that other companies have used before.
Instead, we provide the tools, training and - when required - coaching that allows you to:
While unorthodox, the Customerfit System comes with a number of tangible benefits. The TOP 3 our clients mention includes:
Finally, Customerfit requires ca. 40-60% less investment than achieving the same results through a team of mid-priced customer experience consultants.
During our seed stage, we've deliberately kept our team small, so we could test and solidify every aspect of our approach. As we go-to-market in Q4-2019, we will start recruiting high quality coaches from around Europe and beyond. Stay tuned!

According to some, customer focus should come natural. But sometimes your people need an inspirational push. A few pointers on where to go next.
Our keynote speeches and master classes can provide this for your business. All presentations are built on proven components tailored to the needs of your company.
Aimed at groups of 15 to 1500, our keynotes take the 'fluffiness' out of customer experience management.
Delivered by our founder and Chief Coach, Alain Thys, they talk about the practical components that need to be in place. How experience management drives profit. Which leadership skills your teams need to develop.
Using the Customerfit System, Alain can even publicly assess your company's customer capabilities and identify the actions that will make the biggest difference.
Getting this 'up close and personal' makes our keynotes a great launchpad for any customer initiatives that you may want to launch or continue.
Some possible topics of conversation include:
For groups of 5 to 50 people, master classes deep-dive into one or more aspects of customer experience management.
They introduce participants to all key aspects of the chosen topic, who apply them through practical cases.
After the session, everyone receives online access to the workshop content, tools and templates. This allows reviewing the lessons learned, and ensuring their application.
Combined with one or more follow-up coaching sessions, this puts your people on solid ground when they move to action.
Current master class topics include:
As we are continuously developing new content, we're always happy to discuss any needs not covered in this list.
"Alain provide a perfect key note opening to our Design Forward event. The audience really appreciated it and his talk was referenced at multiple points during the event (and after!). Ahead of the talk, Alain took the time to understand the brief, our business challenges and was really happy tailor WIP thoughts based on our feedback."
James Carter, Global Brand Manager, Experian
"One of the most effective and brilliant courses on customer-centricity I ever attended".

Yasmine Couderc, Group Head of Talent Management, Easyfairs

Customer experience management isn't rocket science. In fact, most solutions are based on common sense and simple processes. But to succeed, you do need a little bit of guidance.
The Customerfit Academy contains a series of do-it-yourself sprint packs that provide you with the knowledge, tools and templates to address your most important customer experience challenges. And when you get stuck, or need a little bit of tailoring, our coaches are on call.
So instead of reinventing the customer experience wheel, you can just get on with improving your company's CX capabilities. One customer fitness sprint at a time.
Look below for the areas where we can assist.
Only one in five companies are able to clearly articulate the customer experience they want to offer.
So formulate 'what great looks like' for your company, and implement this.
Two out of three companies fail to systematically listen to and especially ACT on customer feedback.
Create the processes, culture and systems to be the one that gets it right.
A customer initiative can only succeed when it is supported by the people who need to deliver it.
Ensure that your colleagues are willing, skilled and able to do the job.
Success in innovation is about value propositions that resonate with your customers and your organisation.
Make sure that your new propositions tick all the boxes for success.
Customer experience management doensn't just 'happen'. Especially in larger organisations (> 200 people).
Develop a team and governance to make your efforts go smoothly.
We are currently working on sprint packs for customer insights, CX monetisation, customer journey mapping and more...
If you cannot see what you need, get in touch. We may be working on it.
