Overview
Details

Fanshawe College students in this program understand customer experience design through Customer Experience (CX) research, maximizing journey mapping, measuring the CX journey, and how to deploy direct and interactive omni-channel (multiple) marketing campaigns using customer intelligence and social media analytics.

This project will involve groups of 4-5 students in teams to develop a new customer experience for a product or service. The objectives are to apply the course material and develop an appreciation for the process that a Customer Experience Specialist or Marketing Manager goes through in developing a new customer experience plan.

Each team will play the part of a customer experience company which encompasses all the CX tools and will be pitching a new customer experience to your organization. Additional details regarding the live client work will be discussed in class.
