In the dynamic business world, one question reigns supreme: Are customers truly satisfied? It’s a puzzle every brand wants to solve. But as the landscape shifts from product-focused to service-driven, traditional metrics might not tell the whole story.
Kamya Elawadhi, Chief Client Officer at Doceree shares our perspective. With a background in advertising and marketing, she believes that the world is witnessing a significant surge in positive client outcomes, which in turn, is redefining strategic paradigms.
“There is also an increased emphasis on building trust through personalised and responsive engagement strategies. This shift meets and surpasses client expectations, helping brands create a new era of client-centric excellence.”
Considering the critical change, can brands continue to use standard satisfaction measurement metrics? While useful for gauging customer expectations, it’s undeniable that traditional metrics provide only a partial view. They often concentrate on individual touchpoints, neglecting the cumulative impact of the entire customer journey. Additionally, emotional aspects of customer experiences may be overlooked by these metrics.
Why do we need new customer satisfaction tools?
As innovation pivots from a product-centric approach to excellent service and strategic innovation, a look at new customer satisfaction measurement tools becomes paramount.
It underscores the crucial role of personalised engagement strategies and the establishment of trust in fostering long-term customer loyalty and advocacy.
“Taking customer satisfaction measurement to the next level is highly important—further than traditional metrics. Real-time feedback loops and data analytic capabilities that capture the holistic sense of customers’ experience and expectations at the most nuanced level can ensure an even more holistic and adaptive approach to satisfaction,” adds Kamya.

Future leaders will play a pivotal role in ensuring customer satisfaction and experience remain central to organisational strategies, driving sustained excellence in delivering value to customers.
“Academic institutions must seek to ensure diversification in curriculum content and teaching approaches ideal for varied learning styles and backgrounds. This should be done within an environment that supports ideas and collaborative problem-solving,” adds Kamya.
With time, the marketing and business industry will have next-gen professionals, who’d be more flexible, empathetic, and innovative in a globally connected world.
