Having an online customer feedback tool in place is one thing. But putting it to good use and actually listening to your customers? That’s another. Unfortunately there are many instances in which online customer feedback “falls on deaf ears”. Just a mere 46% of consumers feel that their feedback is being used in a constructive way. And what’s interesting is almost 83% of consumers say they would be more loyal to a brand if they knew that brand would act on their feedback and make improvements.

Data Analytics is fundamental to enhancing the customer experience. Market research reveals, “90% of business managers think analytics is capable of boosting sales by more than 20%.”

Being a CMO used to be straightforward, with a laser focus on branding, advertising and lead generation.

B2B mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are unlikely to slow down in 2018.
Deloitte estimates that M&A activity will accelerate in 2018, in part driven by new M&A technology and tools.
Low economic growth also pushes B2B leaders to rely on M&A as a central part of their growth strategies.
But it remains to be seen whether these deals will be as successful as leaders hope.
Many factors can improve M&A performance, but one critical factor is often overlooked: customers.
