What is CX Day?
We celebrate with learning, professional development opportunities, awards, and celebrations of all kinds.
CX Day is a day all about learning, sharing, and celebrating with the Customer Experience community. Free events include webinars, panel discussions, and all kinds of global learning opportunities throughout the day.
Why do we do this?
The first wave of customer experience professionals has had to create our own paths. There was no textbook or standard curriculum when it came to customer experience. It could feel lonely to be the one saying “what about the customers?” when the company line was “what about the shareholders?”
We celebrate where we are and how far we’ve come. We want to include more professionals who might not have customer experience in their titles but want to change things for the better for the customers they have. We want everyone to know this is a community, a discipline and a professional path worthy of celebration!
But I hear you wondering… “Is it for me?”
Who is CX Day For?
If you’ve never really gotten past the “thinking about” customer experience phase, I encourage you to mark October 1st on your calendar as a day to really dedicate to moving beyond thinking about it.
There’s something for you if you’ve ever…
- Lamented that customer experience is always on your To-Do list and never on your Done list
- Recognized that customer experience isn’t embedded as a part of your organization’s decision making
- Wanted to improve your brand culture.
Alright, so… when is it?

One of my favorite parts about CX Day is how it shows the rest of the organization, the leadership team, your colleagues and friends how far-reaching and important this community is. You are part of something great and becoming greater, and that’s pretty cool.
