In a highly competitive real estate market where customers have abundant options to choose from, delivering exceptional customer experience (CX) is paramount. The quality of service and engagement influences all aspects of buying behaviour, purchase decisions, and brand loyalty. Therefore, real estate businesses must establish a strong online presence and actively engage with their customers through various communication channels, tailored to their preferences and ensuring their comfort.
To discuss how Embassy Group, a leading development firm in real estate, orchestrated a customer journey that fosters improved communication and collaboration, Chirag Boonlia, Group CTO, Embassy Group engages in a dialogue with Pawan Kumar Durbha, Sr. Manager-Research, Mosaic Digital.
Chirag Boonlia believes that an integral aspect of customer experience in this sector is the expectation for prospective buyers to have a firsthand experience or visual representation of the property, including insights into the surrounding area, community, and amenities — prior to making a decision. Additionally, customers anticipate a smooth and uncomplicated purchase journey, from the initial stages to the finalization of their transaction.
