Most people have connected devices such as tablets and smartphones. Digital has become part of their day-to-day life, thanks in part to the work of tech giants such as Google, Apple and Facebook. Customer experience is an important criteria when choosing between rival brands: and consumers now favour a digitally enhanced simple and user-friendly experiences at every stage of the customer journey.
