Go Beyond CX Quick Fixes and Drive Sustainable Business Growth

Is your CX strategy stuck in a cycle of short-term fixes with little long-term impact? Many companies focus on improving isolated customer touchpoints, be it better service scripts, faster digital response times or streamlined complaint handling. Yet, they struggle with customer churn and stagnant growth.

Why Fragmented CX Efforts Fail

Many businesses make the mistake of treating CX as a series of isolated improvements, rather than a cohesive business strategy. While each individual fix might provide a short-term boost, customers experience brands as a whole, not in disconnected parts. Only a fully aligned strategy can deliver consistent, recommendation-worthy experiences.

A Holistic Approach

At Engaged Strategy, we have experienced firsthand that CX is an exercise in organisational transformation and requires a holistic, deeply integrated approach. That’s why we empower our clients with the Total Engagement Model® designed by brand interventionist Christopher Roberts. The model helps organisations align their brand, culture, value propositions and customer experience seamlessly to create real, lasting impact on their target market.

I want you to think about a friend, acquaintance or work colleague. Imagine that they dress impeccably and are articulate communicators with the ability to sell snow to Eskimos. However, they never follow through on the promises they make are generally tardy in their work. There is an inconsistency in what they ‘say’ what they ‘do’ and who they ‘are’.

In comparison think about another individual who communicates well, dresses professionally and is reliable.

The exact same thing applies to a brand.  What a brand ‘says’ is its advertising & communications and its brand promises. What a brand ‘does’ is deliver value propositions and customer experiences. Finally who they ‘are’ is their organisational culture that encompasses their values, vision, purpose and mission.

Imagine the dysfunction if a brand promises a  great experience but has a poor culture where staff are unhappy. Do you think there is even a remote chance that they can deliver great experiences to their customers?  Its impossible.

The Four Pillars of the Total Engagement Model®

1. Brand Alignment: Ensuring that brand messaging, values and positioning are consistent with the customer experience delivered.
2. Culture Transformation: Engaging employees at all levels to create a customer-centric mindset and service-oriented culture.
3. Value Proposition Development: Refining product and service offerings to provide compelling, differentiated value.
4. Customer Experience Optimisation: Enhancing interactions across all touchpoints to create seamless, memorable experiences.

From Worst to Best – How A Utility Company Was Rejuvenated

After a series of devastating storms and eight months of relentless negative media coverage, a leading Queensland energy utility faced severe brand damage and plummeting employee morale. Brand interventionist Christopher Roberts made a data-driven intervention to turn around the brand.

Roberts and the team identified four key brand attributes that would have the greatest impact on rebuilding trust. Through targeted communication, strategic CX alignment and employee-led initiatives, the brand not only recovered, but surpassed all major energy utilities in Australia, becoming one of Queensland’s strongest brands.
