Capitalizing on customer insights

Capitalizing on customer insights

To stimulate growth in today's marketing environment, companies must identify and prioritize opportunities at the points where proliferating segments, channels, and product categories intersect.
But because most companies still regard customer insights as an isolated research capability, they can't obtain or integrate the information they need.
A customer insights network helps marketers look at the world through a number of lenses and to develop proprietary information about customers.
It's also vital to embed customer insights in the organization’s key decisions by restructuring brand and sales planning, new product development, marketing investments, and other business planning processes.
