Customer Co-Creation of Value
The new competitive advantage in today's economy is customer performance. When work transitions from employee to customer, several benefits emerge—if customers can perform. Organizations can reduce their costs of providing services and supporting goods. Customers can complete transactions faster with greater control and experience greater value. The net result is a value chain that increases usage, satisfaction, trust, loyalty, and ultimately lifetime customer value.
In the past, customers expected organizations to do a lot of the work for them. Now, organizations are expecting customers to do more of the work themselves—and when the experience is designed effectively customers respond enthusiastically. To ensure customers perform, organizations must design experiences with that goal in mind. The principles of vision, access, incentive, and expertise form the foundation for what we call coproduction experiences. In their book, Creating Do-It-Yourself Customers, Peter Honebein and Roy Cammarano have presented a whole new dimension in customer service. As we move forward to become our best, and provide our best, this book is not to be missed. It is stimulating, exciting and enormously valuable! - Ken Blanchard, Author of Raving Fans |
