Pat Perdue's Customer Experience Podcast

Getting customer experience right – like really right so you don’t even know your experience has been entirely pre-thought out, planned, and rehearsed until it’s just right, is really difficult to do (If it was easy, more companies would be doing it).

This show looks at the companies, and individuals within those companies, who are getting customer experience right.  Not only do we celebrate the wins, but we go deep, get tactical, and uncover customer experience insights that you can apply to your company.  So give us a listen.  And if you like what you hear, subscribe. 

"What I love most about this show, and any interview I get to do on any of my shows, is the chance to let my guests feel free enough to brag for themselves. To say, 'Yeah, we actually rock the s*%$t out of that!'. That's when I know I'm delivering value - for them, and for my listeners."

Jean-Guy de Gabriac: Achieving That “WOW” Experience in a World-Class Spa

July 21, 2021 Pat@patperdue.com Podcast 00:50:44

Few would argue that the luxury spa industry requires among the highest standards of guest experience in the world, in which every detail is (or should be) designed not just to please you, or relax you, but to transform you into your better self. 

Our guest today, Jean-Guy de Gabriac, is one of the world’s foremost authorities on luxury spas.

In this episode we discuss:

  1. The role of “flow” in every spa
  2. How designing the “guest experience” can begin at the architecture level
  3. The secret of creating a lasting “wow” experience that keeps guests coming back
  4. Much more (including World Wellness Weekend)
