Marketeers are still struggling with customer centricity
“87% say that their companies currently engage in co-ordinated, cross-channel activity and within this, the level of specific targeting (38%) is strong.”
“Only 3% of senior marketers say that their cross-channel marketing activity is customer-centric to a point where it is individualised and set against right-time, right-place priorities.”State of Customer Engagement Report, Econsultancy, 2013
All this is set to change…
The symptoms…
“That campaign only had a budget for 6 months.”
“We need to generate 2000 new leads month on month”.
“I want valuable information and help when I need it.”
“Why haven’t you replied to my Facebook comment?”
“You screwed up - big time!”
“Can someone call customer support? (Who are those guys?)”
