In the latest edition of CRMC and TheCustomer, Devon Wylie, CEO of CRMC, sat down with Tom and I to talk about the challenges they have faced, the strategies they employed, what its like to pivot at moments’ notice, and how their customers have been responding to their efforts.

Tom comes from a long history in retail CRM and loyalty and has a deep understanding of the mechanics of customer engagement and he’s pretty transparent when talking about it.  Devon and I had a great time talking with Tom, we think you will to.
