Elevating Customer Experience Through Digital Transformation

A vital transport hub serving the Hunter region, Newcastle Airport has been on an impressive growth trajectory with ambitious plans to expand both their passenger services and the innovative Astra Aerolab precinct. With a vision to enhance customer experience and streamline operations, they partnered with Comet CX to transform their digital capabilities.

The team at Comet CX were professionals from the first engagement regarding our Salesforce Marketing Cloud & CRM implementation. As a business owned by two Local Councils on land leased from the Department of Defence there are several legislative, and regulatory requirements that we needed to meet as part of this. The Comet CX team worked closely with us to ensure each of that we were compliant.
Apart from the regulatory requirements, the Comet CX team was able to support our broader team in ideation which was a tall ask with so many on our side unfamilair with Salesforce and CRM in general. By the end of this project over half of our office are using Salesforce, with many this is a first time experience.
