Rob Scott sits down with Josie Gaeckle, Senior Vice President of Client Insights at SMG, to break down how Unified Experience Management is turning data into revenue, retention, and ROI.
How does improving customer experience actually impact revenue? Josie reveals why many organizations struggle to show ROI: siloed data, lack of analytical maturity, and disjointed ownership of customer, employee, and brand experiences. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
