(3:33 Video) Redefining CX: From Cost Center to Investment Center Perspective “There needs to be an overall understanding that, over the next five to ten years, customer experience and all the great things it encompasses will be one of the primary drivers of business success. It needs to shift from being seen as a cost center to being viewed as an investment center.” - Peter Mullen
(3:22 Video) Making Every Customer Touchpoint Priceless “For most B2C businesses today, the only remaining human touchpoint is the customer service agent. Every second counts, every engagement counts. What are you doing to make every moment of that count?” - Peter Mullen
(3:38 Video) Driving Revenue Through Retention and Expansion “The mathematical numbers are much greater if you're successful with an existing client than if you're breaking your back trying to get four new ones. If we can convince all businesses to adopt this mindset, we will deliver better customer experiences, a more seamless continuum of care, and ultimately, happier customers. ” - Peter Mullen
(3:29 Video) Transforming C-Suite Alignment Through Customer-Centric Innovation “I believe that in the next decade, many of the Fortune 500 companies are going to report their customer satisfaction numbers as one of the leading indicators of what the forecast for future revenue will look like. When that happens, you connect the C-Suite back to the SVP of Customer Success, and that’s when the flywheel begins to turn the right way.” - Peter Mullen
(2:39 Video) Turning Vision Into Execution Through CX Manifestation Techniques “You need to manifest yourself standing at Googleplex announcing success. This visualization is often more powerful than any internal memo or video chat.” - Peter Mullen
(4:43 Video) Immersive and Empathy-Focused Training Strategies for BPO Success “You want the BPO and the thousands of people working on a contract to buy into your company's mission and vision truly. While that might sound high-level, it’s very pragmatic. It starts with learning and development. It’s about building things in a way that’s both empathetic and practical. Call it empathy, call it embedding practical learning into their brains, so it becomes second nature.” - Peter Mullen
(5:45 Video) How Generative AI Is Revolutionizing BPO Personalization “The macro world we're in is driving personalization faster. If you're a business, you have to move in that direction.” - Peter Mullen

YOUTUBE SHORT: Building Sustainable Revenue Engines Through Culture, Capital, and Tech “You want the BPO and the thousands of people working on a contract to buy into your company's mission and vision truly.
