Do you run a non-digital business?
Do you know how ”online” your customers are?
I always come back to my interview with Howard Tiersky from 2021. His team discovered my podcast on customer experience and reached out, so I got to interview the CEO of a Digital Transformation agency in New York City. 🤷🏼♂️
Howard works with very large organizations to develop programs to assist them during the transformation. As you know, I work with really small, local businesses but do a very similar task.
In his book, "Winning Digital Customers," Howard delivers a compelling message for companies that want to stay relevant in the digital age: Your customers are online, even if you're not. 😮
According to Howard, in today's world, the majority of customers use digital channels to research and make purchasing decisions, even for products and services that are primarily offered offline. This means that businesses that ignore or neglect the digital needs of their customers risk becoming irrelevant or losing out to competitors who are more digitally savvy. 😬
Practical Solutions
But fear not! Howard offers practical solutions for businesses looking to adapt to the changing digital landscape. From investing in new technologies and systems to improving website design and usability, Howard advocates a customer-centric approach to digital transformation that puts the needs and preferences of customers first. 🙌
Howard’s message is clear: digital transformation is not an option but a necessity for businesses that want to stay relevant and succeed in today's world. Businesses that ignore the digital needs of their customers risk becoming irrelevant or losing out to competitors who are more digitally savvy.

One of the most compelling aspects of "Winning Digital Customers" is Howard's focus on the importance of the human element in digital transformation.
