Title: B2B Customer Experience
Author: Paul Hague & Nicholas Hague

Did you know that in B2B, it's five to ten times more expensive to acquire a new customer than to keep an existing one? Sam and Sophie sit with that fact for a minute, because most companies still obsess over the sale while ignoring what happens after.

They walk through Paul Hague and Nicholas Hague's framework for turning customer experience into a competitive advantage. The episode covers mapping the customer lifecycle, identifying 'moments that matter,' using personas for different stakeholders, and the 'voice of the customer' program. They also discuss reframing complaints as gifts, the importance of internal culture, and using a customer health score to predict churn.

If you're in B2B sales, marketing, or leadership, this episode names why retention beats acquisition and gives you practical tools to build loyalty. The takeaway: your best customer is the one you already have.
