The document discusses four case studies of companies that implemented end-to-end analytics solutions to better understand customer behavior and improve marketing ROI. The first case study found that 40% of offline purchases were preceded by online research. The second case evaluated how online channels contributed to 10% of offline revenue. The third case used cross-device data to improve keyword selection and increase PPC ROI by 17%. The fourth case built customer segments and increased SMS revenue by 19% through triggered messages. Overall, the case studies demonstrate how combining online and offline customer data can provide insights to optimize marketing.
