Customer Service and Shopping Experience J.C. Penney places greater emphasis on enhancing the overall customer experience, both in-store and online. J.C. Penney's efforts, such as remodeling store layouts with new concepts, improving visual merchandising, and introducing experiential elements, demonstrate that they are looking for methods to enhance the shopping experience (Slaton et al., 2018). However, if done well, this could result in a more enjoyable and memorable experience than Kohl's stores. While J.C. Penney prioritizes experience improvements, Kohl's delivers a superior overall
When considering the actions of customers, the consideration must be made to the comprehensive experience of the customer during their experience as a customer. From entering the store, to perusing the aisles, contemplating service purchases, employee service and solicitation, to ease of purchase and exit. Each step the customer takes from outside the store, to in, and back out again all influence the overall experience and impression of the service provided by the vendor. (Zeithaml, Bitner, & Gremler, 2013) In the case of the home improvement store, Lowes, the customer experience is geared toward the homeowner rather than the commercial builder.
Customer service is when an employee and a customer have a connection, the employee owes it to the client to help and inform them. The majority of business owners think that this one-on-one interaction is crucial to assuring client satisfaction and encouraging returning customers. To succeed, retail businesses must deliver top-notch customer service. In fact, 93% of customers are more likely to patronise companies that offer excellent customer service again. Nonetheless, almost 80% of customers indicate they would rather work with a brand's competitor after more than one bad experience.
01.03 Evaluate the influence of customer perception and expectations on service levels Customers have immense influence on service levels in the retail sector. Customer perceptions and expectations dictate where they shop and it is up to the retailer to react and anticipate these influences to remain relevant in the fluctuating retail market.

Businesses have to consider the controllable aspects of customer perceptions and expectations through the products and services that the organisation offers, the prices of these products and the customer experience. Retailers have to perform market research to recognise the products and services of
Simon Sinek describes customer experience through the eyes of the employee in his video titled “Why the Customer is Not Always Right”. Ultimately Sinek states that the customer is not always right in every situation. This notion stems from the belief that customer loyalty should rely solely on customer satisfaction, however, one must question where exactly that arises from. Surely customer satisfaction does not rely on whether the customer is right or not, simply because customers not only do not understand store policy, but customer satisfaction relies on those who are serving them, as well as the management at the establishment. We must look at the bigger picture rather than just looking at the customer themselves and how they are or are not right.

A well-run customer-experience diagnostic can yield a wide range of benefits and should answer a series of essential questions. For example, the research can help the company to define what really matters to the customers, and what are the factors that drive satisfaction and behaviors. How do customer experiences correlate with the expectations and competitors’ offers. And, finally, where is
1.1 Explain the concept of the “customer experience” The concept of the customer experience is based on the idea of meeting the needs and expectations of the customer. It is also based on what the customer had got from purchasing the products and services, how good that service was/is and would they come back.

In recent years, the automotive industry has seen a dichotomy of innovations – particularly in relation to electric vehicles. For example, Tesla and GEM have each introduced new and distinct electric vehicles aimed at different “jobs to be done.” Tesla Motors (“Tesla”) is an American electric-automobile manufacturer. It was founded in 2003 by American entrepreneurs Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning and was named after Serbian American inventor Nikola Tesla.
Experience Design is a relatively new field of design that still has yet to be explored in depth. It is hard to narrow down what exactly Experience Design is. This seems to be a common theme amongst Experience Designers in their attempt to explain what exactly it is that they do. I read through numerous case studies, books, articles, journals, etc. and never came across a clear definition that fit my understanding of Experience Design, much like most others that have written on this topic.
