Today, I had the great pleasure to discuss with Olivier Mourrieras how customer journeys reveal no only moments-that-matter but also channels-that-matter. I have been a guest at a ‘CX Huddle’, a format run by TribeCX for their CX Learning Community. To spark the discussion I started to provide insights into the pharma business model and how a mapping of personas (and their journeys) to disease area specific ‘channel performance maps’ helped us at Roche with selecting a smart channel mix for a product launch. Also, how Voice-of-the-customer will help us at Roche to iteratively refine and adjust the digital channel strategy. I really enjoyed the discussion the more the cross-industries audience started to add their own perspectives and what they had specifically learned based on different business models. Honestly, I really enjoy speaking. But I even more enjoy a lively and sometimes even controversial discussion. Can be quite mind opening and inspiring. Unfortunately – due to the closed community – I am not free to publicly disclose details of.…

I will be at the CX 3.0 Conference, held virtually next week Thursday, September 8th, at 9 a.m. CET.

In 2022 I had the great pleasure being a member of a cross-functional “digital squad” which was defining and executing on a digital launch strategy for a new pharmaceutical treatment launched by Roche in the EU. We saw an exceptional opportunity using the product launch as a sweet spot for early introducing CX methodology to the go-to-market approach. My role had been to add CX expertise and perspective to the table, where I have to say that my other functional colleagues (digital strategy, market insights, content management) had been remarkably open to consider new methodologies for a more customer-expectations-driven approach. Not claiming that this first attempt had been perfect, but a couple of aspects were successfully introduced to the digital launch strategy for the product. And I personally was confirmed on two of my personal mantras I am following, the “from talking to walking” and the “focus on sweet spots”.
