Businesses that prioritise CX recover faster from pandemic

More than half of businesses consider improving CX a top priority.

A new survey showed that businesses that prioritised customer experience (CX) investment recovered faster from the pandemic.

According to a joint research by Zendesk, Inc. and Ecosystm, 88% of businesses that increased CX spending during the pandemic experienced early recovery and even improved their business during the challenging time.

“The research shows signs of a two-speed economy emerging in Singapore, in that businesses investing in CX are projecting early recovery, whilst companies that drop CX spend are seeing slower recovery timelines,” Zendesk said.

Additionally, 56% of businesses considered improving their CX as a top priority.

“This suggests businesses that have placed a strong focus on CX are expecting to accelerate their growth and pandemic recovery,” Zendesk said.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
