Insights on brand development

Hello! I’m new to the XM Community and have worked in CX for over a decade now. I’m intrigued by the ever evolving nature of this field!According to Qualtrics 2025 Global Trends Report, trend 1 reveals a decline in loyalty among customers even as brands spend more. As an independent consultant for small businesses communicating the value in investing in brand development is difficult especially as it may not bear fruit until later in the future. Any thoughts on how you frame the value of investing in brand development? I would especially love to hear from other independent consultants or small business owners! Much thanks!!

are XLAs the next step for XM?

Qualtrics defines XM (Experience Management) as "a holistic approach to listening to the voice of customers, employees, and other stakeholders and using the knowledge, understanding and insights to design and improve the experiences you deliver. It’s used by organizations to launch new experiences based on powerful market research to uncover unmet customer and employee needs, and then to continually optimize those experiences as their market and their stakeholders’ needs change".*  Although Lord Kelvin and Peter Drucker’s quotes may be a bit tongue in cheek, they do make one wonder how XM is actually managed. And when done well, how does one show a holistic promise being delivered on? Translating a qualitative experience into a quantitative measure is of course a challenge. Or is it? *What is Experience Management (XM)? | Qualtrics
