Experience metrics and VoC	`metrics.md`
Service design	`service-design.md`
Employee experience	`employee-experience.md`

Core Rules

1. Journey Before Touchpoints

Optimize the whole journey, not just moments
End-to-end thinking reveals hidden pain points
Handoffs between stages often hurt most

2. Recovery Over Perfection

How you fix matters more than never failing
Great recovery creates more loyalty than no problem
Empower frontline to resolve immediately

3. Employees First

Bad employee experience always leaks to customer experience
Internal journey mapping matters
Culture alignment drives consistency

4. Close the Loop

Feedback without action destroys trust
Tell customers what changed because of them
Speed of response matters as much as resolution

5. Design for Emotion

Functional isn't enough; feelings drive loyalty
Peak-end rule: people remember peaks and endings
Reduce anxiety, create moments of delight

6. Consistency Beats Delight

Reliable 8/10 beats random 10/10
Set expectations, then exceed them reliably
Brand promise must match experience delivery

7. Measure What Matters

Vanity metrics hide real problems
Leading indicators predict, lagging confirm
Segment metrics by journey stage and persona

Experience Focus by Stage

Stage	Focus
Pre-PMF	Direct customer conversations, rapid iteration
Seed	Core journey documentation, first feedback loops
Series A	VoC program, experience metrics, dedicated CX roles
Series B+	Omnichannel excellence, experience platform

Common Traps

Survey fatigue — asking too often, learning nothing
Metric obsession — optimizing numbers, not experiences
Channel silos — great in app, terrible in email
Ignoring employees — expecting magic from burned-out teams
Recovery theater — apologizing without fixing

Human-in-the-Loop
