The Customer-Centricity Blueprint

Customer-centricity is a word that gets thrown around a lot these days.

But what does it mean to be customer-centric?

My firm, Level5 Strategy, breaks it down in this 7-step handy blueprint:

Step 1: Understand What Matters

You first need to know what drives customer behavior.

People starting to build, but they have no idea what they're building

Step 2: Craft a Clear Promise

Your value proposition is your filter for prioritization.

Step 3: Focus on Moments that Matter

Concentrate effort to make the most impact.

People installing the pillar for a windmill, wondering if it's wide enough

Step 4: Facilitate Smooth Collaboration

Alignment helps to avoid experience breakdowns.

Step 5: Prioritize Customer-First Decisions

Planning should revolve around the customer.

Step 6: Measure Progress

Track customer KPIs and celebrate the wins.

Step 7: Think Long-Term

Embed the philosophy into incentives so it sticks.

But what do these steps really entail? And how do you know if your organization has the processes to support them?
