Customer Engagement (v): The actions a company undertakes to create a specific feeling in a customer or prospect or to encourage their audience to participate in a conversation.
Customer Engagement (n): The level in which a customer is emotionally involved with a particular brand, product or service.
Customer engagement is critical to the lasting success of every firm and can serve as the sole differentiator that tips a prospect into becoming a customer. Every customer wants to feel two emotions when they make a purchase. First, they want to feel like they’ve made the right decision and second, that they matter to the companies whom they’ve given their trust and business.
