What If You Could Achieve Zero Distance To Your Customers?
We help leaders redesign their organisations around the lives, needs and experiences of customers, creating deeper customer proximity and opening up new opportunities for value creation.
“Too few of our people ever interact meaningfully with customers.”
Bring customer reality closer to the people making decisions.
“We lack actionable customer insight.”
Turn customer understanding into decisions, actions and new sources of value.
“Customers are at the end, not the beginning, of our value chain.”
Redesign value creation from the customer backwards.
“We research our customers, but don’t co-create with them.”
Move from studying customers to creating value with them.
“Our customers don’t have a seat at the table.”
Bring the customer directly into strategic and operational decisions.
THE INSURGENCE CUSTOMER PROXIMITY SYSTEM
Customer Proximity
Customer proximity is the continuous pursuit of achieving near-zero distance between the firm and its customers or consumers, towards a symbiotic and essential relationship.
Nine attributes describe a customer-proximate firm.
CASE STUDY
An Aged Care Organisation Breaks All the Rules.
SITUATION
A new CEO seeking to change the culture of a large institutional network of aged care facilities to place the customer at the centre of everything it does.
SOLUTION
A complete and total reframing of the culture around the residents and clients through customer proximity (the culture) and co-creation (the method).
RESULTS
NPS and client satisfaction almost doubled in the first year. Carer and staff satisfaction increased by double digits. Vacancies declined significantly.
“We fully embraced customer proximity as our primary organising principle. This gave our organisation a higher purpose and an almost total obsession with working with, not just for, our clients.”
