Customer Experience (CX) Solutions Provider McorpCX, Inc.

Appoints New Director to its Board

 

 

San Francisco, CA, (February 1st, 2017) -- Customer experience solutions and software company McorpCX, Inc. (TSXV: MCX, OTCQB: MCCX) (“McorpCX” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Graham Clark to its board of directors (the “Board”) in its push to establish McorpCX as an emerging player in Customer Experience (CX) Software.

 

Mr. Clark has held executive management positions with global IT companies including NIIT Technologies and Mphasis. He is a recognized digital customer experience thought leader in how digital technologies influence and drive ‘Digital Operating Models’ and ‘digital first but not digital only multichannel experiences’. The Board believes his background will provide valuable insights that will assist it in overseeing the Company’s business strategy which includes identifying technology and Customer Experience (CX) software driven opportunities.

 

Regarding his board appointment Clark said “I am excited to be joining the McorpCX board, and will be focusing my efforts on continuing to grow the company’s footprint with Fortune 100 and 1000 customers, as we deliver best in class Customer Experience (CX) Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and cloud based solutions to the market. Not dissimilar to companies like Medallia, I think there is big opportunity for McorpCX to leverage the success it’s already had with global brands like lululemon and Microsoft, and it’s consulting platform.”

 

McorpCX CEO Michael Hinshaw commented “We believe adding experienced directors like Graham to our Board will help guide the Company’s management as we work towards carving out our own niche within the large Global Customer Experience Management (CEM) market, which according to marketsandmarkets is estimated to grow from USD 5.06 Billion in 2016 to USD 13.18 Billion by 2021.”
