Today, delivering great, relevant experiences is crucial for success. In order to do so, new skills and approaches are needed to get it right. Recent PwC research states that the number of companies investing in omnichannel experiences has jumped from 20% to more than 80%.

Customer journey analytics is one such approach being used to build informed customer experiences. And, for one biopharmaceutical organization, the use of analytics has enabled stronger relationships with healthcare professionals, resulting in a $4.8 million increase in revenue per sub brand, and a measured lift in deploying tactical triggers across the customer journey.

eMarketer was pleased to moderate a Tech-Talk Webinar featuring Merkle’s Shirli Zelcer, head of analytics and data, Scott Nuernberger, senior vice president, analytics, Amanda Gessert, analytics solution lead, and Alice Harmon, senior director, customer analytics, health. They shared how analytics ensures a systematic means of evaluating outcomes, and improving the overall process.

Watch this webinar and learn how to:

  • Nurture audience engagement and move the needle with customer journey analytics
  • Inform promotions, messaging sequencing, and measurement over time
  • Quickly put customer journey analytics into practice with actionable tips
