Nano Customer Journey – Visualisation Dashboard

The Nano dashboard relies on data visualisation technology to “interact” with Nano Investments customer data and analyse the customer journey through changes in data in real time. At the same time, it adjusts to changing conditions based on channel, product and customer considerations. This high-speed tool that people can use to invest on their own, backed by the effective management of the customer journey, has already begun enhancing customer experience. It has also helped provide regular account holders with high-quality financial services.

Through customer journey analysis, the following benefits were achieved:

1. Enhanced customer experience

  • No breakpoints in the customer experience. Through the monitoring systems, abnormal values are detected immediately and specific points in the customer experience are addressed, leading to improvements in processes and ongoing gains in capacity and effectiveness.
  • Better communication with customers. System continues to communicate with customers based on their customer journeys, with different marketing approaches used at different contact points on the journey.

2. Triggered management teams to be more efficient

  • Unlike a lengthy communication process happening in the past, the real-time dashboard used by Nano Investments that compiles information on customer segments, products and channels and relies on data to manage these different areas, gives each department a clear picture of up-to-the-minute performance. Managers can quickly make key decisions without the need for extensive meetings, resulting in better customer experience and more efficient management.

3. Created competitive advantages

  • Nano Investments’ customer journey dashboard monitors customer profiles, product results and channel management to gauge performance. When indicators in any of those three areas trend lower, the responsible unit can react immediately and take corrective action. This rapid response time and attention to all contact points gives the system a real competitive advantage.
