Presentation given in New York City on 5/19 for Idio.
Trends like scalability, artificial intelligence, distribution and mobility are changing the way we buy, sell and communicate. We must be poised to take advantage of these changes and equipped to handle a customer’s journey that is changing constantly. In a world of instant communication, the most successful be those that embrace experiences over marketing.
Join us as we talk about why we are not the CEO or VP of sales, the head of marketing or the customer support manager, we are experience makers and managers. The only thing that makes us relevant are the experiences we provide. Everything else is just noise.
