At this week\u2019s KANA Customer Summit 2013 for North America <\/a>our team listened to dynamic speakers discuss the state of customer expectations for an \u201cenchanting\u201d brand experience, as Guy Kawasaki<\/a> \u00a0likes to say. Several speakers touched on the importance of omni-channel communications, and the demand for complete, consistent, and contextual communication in the next generation of customer care. I would encourage your team to go further and extend the 3-C philosophy to the entire customer experience.<\/p>\n

The crux of the matter is how to capture a 360-degree view of the customer, deliver value consistently and put the message in context for the moment a customer interacts with the brand. Success requires that organizations use both the behavioral data of a customer\u2019s past action, and predictive analytics for the future decisions a customer may take in certain buying scenarios.<\/p>\n

Scott Hays, Sr. Director, Product Marketing at KANA Software drove home this challenge for businesses when he said,<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are wired to process information in context. That\u2019s because without context, information is meaningless.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Unifying data to find context<\/b><\/p>\n

Businesses today are collecting more data on their customers than ever before, yet many marketers and data scientists find themselves in the predicament of having mountains of data without conclusive findings. A tweet from @KANAsoftware<\/a> during the Customer Summit targeted to customer care agents can also be applied to marketers and the software programs they implement.<\/p>\n

\u201dOften companies are expected to use scattered apps for simple tasks. [It’s] obvious why a unified desktop provides more efficiency\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is one reason why Brick Street Software engineers focus heavily on ensuring that the CONNECT platform is flexible enough to integrate with various software, both up and downstream of the CONNECT application.<\/p>\n
