Once again, the world has changed. Growth is on everyone's mind again. After years of cost cutting, firms have gained all they can through tight budgets. Organizations are now turning their attention to creating value through a truly customer-centric environment which enables them to acquire, retain, and cross sell customers effectively. The result? They are able to benefit faster than their competitors from renewed economic growth. Businesses, large and small, realize it is critical to create a single view of the customer and establish the discipline, skills and processes to effectively and profitably manage the customer experience through every interaction. New approaches embracing analytics, Customer Interaction Hubs, and Marketing Resource Management are creating new opportunities for the IT department and the lines of business themselves to drive additional insights and make substantial and sustainable financial contributions.
In its 13th edition, this Summit is the most comprehensive conference on topics of customer strategies and technologies ever held. It will help IT and business executives who want to get the latest actionable insights and best practices in all areas of CRM, from business strategy to software implementation, from change management to metrics.
