Editor's Notes

  1. Lew Carbone has been a leader in the experience management revolution for over two decades. He has done more than anyone to decode how great experiences are made. And this is what he has to say … (Invite one of the staff to read) What do you think this means?
  2. Lew Carbone defines three main types of “clues” to a customer experience – and all need to work together. The product or service provide what Carbone calls functional clues. How well a product or service works, is an example. These clues are interpreted at the rational or conscious level. The environment offers mechanic clues. How the space is laid out. What it smells like. People give off humanic clues. Whether someone smiles and greets you, for example. And both mechanic and humanic clues have strong emotional / unconscious impacts. Great experiences need to consider all of them.
