Customer Intelligence Management
What Is It
Not long ago, the marketing department could create a cool direct mail piece, blast it to the masses and hope the orders roll in. Strategy? Measurable results? Nice, but not necessary.
One-size-fits-all marketing is over. Management expects more accountability and return on their marketing investment. Consumers are weary of telemarketing and how-did-you-get-my-name junk mail. But developing strategic, focused and measurable marketing programs may be easier than you think.
Think of the different ways your organization connects with consumers: Trade shows. Your web site. Conversations with your sales team. Direct mail offers. Previous purchases. Service calls. Your organization may have a rich source of customer data – but it’s trapped in fragmented, disparate internal systems and sources.
What if these data sources connected to form a real-time, Internet-enabled system? Think of the untapped knowledge you’d discover – and the integrated, ROI-based selling process you could create.
