In my mind, that is my contribution to customer experience. What I create may be the first interaction a potential client has with Sogolytics, seeing an ad about a platform with exceptional CX management features. Or it could be one of the case studies that share greater insights and inspirational examples.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>Customer Experience (CX) is, simply, the relationship between customers and a business, and any relationship is based on trust, connections, and communication. I enjoy being a facilitator of that relationship, starting it off, and cultivating it continuously on both sides for the benefits of both parties. The better the relationship, the more satisfied both sides are, and the stronger the bond. It really is a win-win situation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>As a marketing writer, what I want to do, at all times, is bridge the gap between authentic experiences, the company, and what they stand for. You see, my primary aim is to share Sogolytics\u2019s story, present their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/customer-experience-platform\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">amazing platform<\/a>, and help customers learn the many ways we can solve the problems they face. We want to help build more agile, emotionally intelligent, consistent brands, not just companies. That message must reach our customers, combined with our support and client success-focused team, to provide remarkable experiences.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-spacer\"><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-53279\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/eye-for-ebony-vYpbBtkDhNE-unsplash-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"marketing writer customer experience\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/eye-for-ebony-vYpbBtkDhNE-unsplash-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/eye-for-ebony-vYpbBtkDhNE-unsplash-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/eye-for-ebony-vYpbBtkDhNE-unsplash-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/eye-for-ebony-vYpbBtkDhNE-unsplash-50x38.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/eye-for-ebony-vYpbBtkDhNE-unsplash.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"div-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2>Marketing tells the stories of customer experience<\/h2>\n<p>As a marketing writer, I enjoy seeing happy customers who become loyal promoters, not because they feel forced or enticed to, but because they love what they are receiving. This means my storytelling isn\u2019t about making up far-reaching promises that have not hopes to be fulfilled or creating bundles of sales-driven material that turn customers into numbers. No. That isn\u2019t my job at all, and I wouldn\u2019t be here if it was!<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>Before I joined the team at Sogolytics, I was focused on a different kind of stories. As an international bestselling author who has worked with other authors on their branding, from design to storytelling, the story is kind of a big deal for me. The world of words, voice, and taking my readers into a different realm they enjoy and want to stay in &#8212; all this has led me to my current position.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>As a marketing writer, I still love to tell a good story. But the basis of any really good story is its grounding in the truth.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>There must be something real, relatable, and consistent within the pages in order to keep the reader engaged and coming back for more. This isn\u2019t much different from working with marketing materials, writing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/how-hiring-practices-are-failing-bipoc-workers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">blog posts<\/a>, or drafting emails to clients and potential customers, just to name a few things.

I\u2019m not just focused on the success for sales or the bottom-line number.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>And I really like that Sogolytics doesn\u2019t expect me to focus on that either.
