Buyers place more importance on the lifetime experience than the purchase, and they expect to realize value long before they purchase your solution. These days, it’s about the journey, not the ultimate purchase.
So how do you reach these 70% to influence their buying decisions – when they haven’t visited your site yet?

The role of the CIO is highlighted as an important enabler who can leverage information technology to gain insights into customer behavior and needs to better target the most profitable segments.
