What if your brand’s voice is drifting off-key in the ears of your customers, and you’re the last one to know?
Agility requires more than just rapid execution; it demands a real-time, nuanced understanding of customer sentiment and the ability to translate that intelligence directly into action.
We are here at Sitecore Symposium in Orlando, Florida, and today we’re going to talk about closing the gap between brand promise and customer perception. In an era of endless customer reviews, social media posts, and feedback channels, how can a large organization truly listen at scale and ensure its voice remains consistent and effective?
To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Mark Wagner, Senior Director of Strategy at Horizontal Digital.
