Level up your marketing game with the digital experience maturity calculator

With a solid understanding of digital experience maturity, companies can assess the right tools to create powerful digital experiences. Without it, everything becomes a bit more complex. But don’t worry, thanks to our brand-new calculator, assessing your level of digital experience maturity just got easier.

Digital experience maturity is more than a marketing buzzword. All too often, we find that a lack of understanding around digital experience maturity means customers don’t see the results they expect. They don’t have the right tools at their disposal or don’t utilize the tools they have fully. This is one of the reasons why we created the Digital Experience Maturity Model and are now pleased to introduce an interactive digital experience maturity calculator.

But before we dive into what it is and how the results are going to impact the way you operate, let’s first quickly explore why we believe understanding your digital experience maturity is so important.

What is digital experience maturity?

You know that your online presence needs to deliver outstanding personalized customer experiences that welcome, delight, and nurture your customers along their journey toward brand loyalty. And you know that in order to provide this you require: 

1. Deep customer insights from across your various touchpoints all in one place to form a 360° customer profile that helps you understand who your customers are and how they are feeling and behaving. You need to understand their needs and frustrations in order to craft a specially-tailored experience of your brand.
2. The technology that will turn those insights into action and then results. You need the tools that enable you to deliver personalized experiences at scale—each tailored to your customers’ interests and desires—across all touchpoints, including web, mobile site, app, email and social.
   
   And this is why so many companies have jumped on the digital transformation movement. Being able to deliver this kind of experience is not a nice-to-have but an imperative. Customers expect it.
3. Skill. You must have the ability to leverage your tools to best effect in order to execute your customer experience strategy quickly and efficiently and be able to iteratively enhance it in an infinite loop of learning and improvement.

This is where digital experience maturity comes in. A company’s digital experience maturity is its level of sophistication in measuring and delivering digital customer experiences across touchpoints. It’s not just about having the analytics and tools, but having the skills, too. It’s not actually about having all the bells and whistles of customer experience but putting the right tools into the hands of those who can leverage them to the max and in the most efficient way.

This requires a level of self-awareness—an honest understanding of where you are digitally as a company, where you want to be, and what steps lie between the two. Just as in life, knowing your limitations is just as important as knowing your potential.
