7:30pm - 8:30pm: Sales and Marketing on the Front Lines
Julie Fraser, Principal Analyst at Cambashi, will present Sales and Marketing on the Front Lines: Understanding and Delivering All that the Customer Values. In today’s connected and ultra-competitive environment, you need to understand not just what the customers want to buy, but how and why. Customer 2.0 communicates, collects information, evaluates offerings and disseminates information differently and rapidly – and they are shopping for business outcomes, not always features and specifications.
