This document describes an integrated customer experience scenario across multiple entities. It begins with a customer, Marissa, noticing an issue with her vehicle. Predictive analytics and her car's app notify her of the needed repair and schedule an appointment. At the dealership, technicians efficiently perform the repair using mobile tools. Marissa enjoys her loaner vehicle's tour feature. Follow-up marketing from the manufacturer increases her interest in upgrading.
3. Let’s envision a scenario
How can businesses today improve the
customer service experience with the help of
predictive analytics, modern sales and
marketing tools, and cloud-enabled line-of-
business applications?

Violet Myers
Marketing manager
for Contoso Motors
Violet Myers conceives a marketing
campaign that implements the customer
segmentation data models that her
colleague Gail Bell published.
As part of her campaign,
Violet puts together an
attractive lease incentive for
existing customers that
includes:
Discount services at
signing, such as
extended warranties
Discounts on product
upgrades and OEM
accessories
Third-party after-
market offers, such as
satellite radio
subscription services
29. Violet concludes that the
campaign is performing
well. Although the target
audience is relatively small,
the focus, personalization,
and contextual resonance
of the messaging are
leading to stronger results
than many of the much
larger, more generalized
campaigns run out of
corporate.
“I think I’ll share these
results with the group. I was
confident a more nuanced
approach could yield big
results …”

31. Hello, Marissa.
Your loaner car is
ready for you
outside.
That’s great! I’ll be
interested to see how
this car performs. I’ve
heard it’s got good gas
mileage.
Against the backdrop of
Violet’s marketing campaign
designed to appeal to
customers like Marissa, she
takes her vehicle to Northwind
Motors for her scheduled
appointment.

Bennie Seale
Service technician at

After saying goodbye to
Marissa, Dan returns to the
service bay where he chats
briefly with Bennie about the
work to be performed.
36. The brake replacement
is a recommended
service, so take a close
look at the relative wear
and tear.
TRANSITION > COMMUNICATION > EVALUATION > CONCLUSION
37. Sure thing. Fixing the
O2 sensor will be
easy. I’ll have that
done by noon.

38. Great, thanks. If it turns out
that all the brakes do in fact
need replacing, let me
know right away, so I can
see about tracking down
the parts locally.
TRANSITION > COMMUNICATION > EVALUATION > CONCLUSION
39. Bennie inspects the
brakes.
The front set of brake
pads are fairly well worn
while the other two show
marginal wear.

40. Since Dan is away from
the garage, Bennie uses
the integrated
communications
features built into the
service tech dashboard
on his tablet to interact
with Dan while he
checks the brakes.
TRANSITION > COMMUNICATION > EVALUATION > CONCLUSION
41. After reviewing the
images captured by
Bennie, Dan confirms,
“Yep, the rear pads also
need replacing—but I see
another problem. Looks
like one of those brake
rotors is beginning to
warp. Can you see if we
have any in stock?”
Bennie does a quick stock
check and finds that they
have some rotors in stock.
“Good,” Dan remarks.
“Swap that rotor out,
too, and make sure to
record it as another
warranty repair.”

attached pictures of the
worn brake pads and
rotors.
TRANSITION > COMMUNICATION > EVALUATION > CONCLUSION
45. What did you think
of the CC4? Did
you like it?
Dan, I think it’s a great car. It’s got
fantastic mileage, and it doesn’t
even feel like it’s a diesel. The
Contoso app guide was also quite
helpful in introducing me to some
of the great features.
Thanks again for all your help!

Good morning Marissa, hope you’re doing well!
