Metaverse – The Future of Digital CX Transformation

Metaverse is taking over the world! It was a sudden sensation when Facebook changed its name from 'Meta' to reflect their deep belief in Metaverse and how seriously they take it. Many big players jumped into the fray to launch their products and services in this market. The definition "Metaverse" is still fluid and up for debate. It is not clear which direction it will take or how it will unfold. Consumers and enterprises see this as an opportunity to create and construct a new parallel world, where the rules and restrictions of real life may not apply. This will allow for the creation of new business models, and new services. This will also lead to a digital CX transformation

The goal is for Metaverse to become the "Internet of Real Life" where people can access and interact with digital content in the real world. In this article, let see how the Metaverse will change the future of Digital CX Transformation.

What Is the Metaverse and What Does it Mean for CX?

Metaverse is a shared, social virtual environment that allows users to be represented by avatars that can visit, interact, and create virtual objects and experiences. As blended reality, VR, AR, and AI technologies and experiences advance, this virtual environment will only get more social and immersive. Additionally, Metaverses began to develop their own distinct economies and currencies, enabling users to trade in a variety of industries, including real estate, education, products, and avatar accessories.

The metaverse technology provides a unique opportunity to engage customers in a digital space that isn't just online. It moves beyond traditional channels, allowing companies to reach their customers in a new way. Companies may use the metaverse solutions to create a more immersive and engaging experience for their customers, one that is tailored to their needs. In terms of customer experience (CX), the metaverse services could radically change how businesses interact with customers. It could provide customers with an interactive, immersive digital experience that allows them to engage with businesses more directly.

Implications of the Metaverse on the Future of CX

The metaverse development has the potential to revolutionize customer experiences, bridging global barriers, blurring the line between self-service and contact centers, and turning experiences into products.

The Metaverse may affect the customer's experiences in many ways, such as: 

1. Breaking Down Global Barriers

The metaverse services could break down global economic barriers, allowing customers to access any brand they want and revolutionizing purchasing journeys.

2. Turning Experiences Into Products

Businesses have the opportunity to produce experiences and drive long-term customer outcomes through Metaverse. This will change the value of customer experience and increase customer loyalty.

3. Blurring the Line Between Self-Service and Contact Centers

Technologies like conversational AI are allowing self-service to become more similar to human agents and in-person support. In the future, AI-powered digital humans will be able to provide face-to-face and in-person customer support in the metaverse.

4. Increasing Competition from Disruptors

In the Metaverse, all brands have an equal chance to deliver engaging experiences, creating a highly competitive environment where networks and influential contacts are no longer necessary for success.

5. Furthering the Remote Revolution

The pandemic has triggered a remote revolution, leading to the increased value of any metaverse company or platforms such as Decentraland. This has changed how we interact with each other, leading to the development of CX in the Metaverse which allows remote customer experiences that match in-person interaction levels.

Challenges of CX in the Metaverse

Every new technology has learning curve difficulties, and the metaverse technology is no exception.

1. First, the technology is still in its early stages, and therefore there is no assurance that business efforts in a VR-first CX will pay off.

2. Second, consumer adoption of VR is still quite low, well behind the average levels of internet and telephony use.

3. As a result, businesses will be able to interact with a relatively small audience even with appropriate spending, at least initially.

The benefit is that, despite a smaller audience, engagement levels will be far higher due to the interactive and immersive aspect of VR.

And last, it takes a lot of money and technical know-how to launch a CX that is friendly to the Metaverse. It is no accident that well-known corporations like Disney, Warner Bros., Nike , Hyundai, Gucci, Sotheby's, and Louis Vuitton are among those making forays in this route. Despite the egalitarian nature of the platform, there are entry requirements for technical expertise and risk tolerance.

Benefits of CX in Metaverse

CX in Metaverse offers many benefits for businesses, organizations and individuals. CX stands for customer experience and refers to the overall experience a customer has when engaging with a company, brand or product. In the Metaverse, CX refers to the experience users have when engaging with virtual, digital or augmented reality experiences.

The benefits of metaverse user experience include:

- Increased customer engagement and loyalty 

- Improved customer satisfaction

- Increased ROI

- Better personalization and customization

- Effective marketing campaigns

CX in Metaverse also encourages users to stay longer and interact more frequently with experiences and products. This can lead to greater customer insights, which can be used to shape better marketing, engagement and product strategies.
