Wil Lynch, VP, Solution Strategy and Value Consulting at Thunderhead will take to the stage on Day One at 2.50pm to ask “What’s a customer-led journey – and why should I care?”. In addition, on Day Two at 10.00am, Thunderhead will lead a lively debate around “As an industry obsessed with personalisation, are we all missing the point?”.

New research
In conjunction with Marketing Week, Thunderhead has conducted new research investigating the evolving role of customer-led journeys and the transformation of customer experience. The report reveals that the vast majority of marketers (87%) see the benefits of their business implementing customer-led journeys with 39% of marketers agreeing that their customer experience budgets are due to rise more than 10% to support the new approach. However, just 7% of marketers think their organisation’s KPIs are set up to be more customer-led.

“Even leading brands are failing to put responsive customer experiences ahead of internal business priorities, and most marketers think other brands are better at it than their own. This suggests there are blockers to success, but also a big opportunity to get there before competitors.”

“Brands also need to understand technology’s potential to use customer data to perform autonomous decision-making at scale. If they can harness this, they will have a key opportunity to create a new model for customer-led journeys and experiences.” Letting the Customer Lead, Why brands should act now to transform customer journeys – Thunderhead and Marketing Week report.
