An Explosion of Customer Touchpoints…

@lindroux @siteworx #contentmarketing

“Digital customer experience today is defined primarily by websites, with mobile applications on smartphones not far behind, and the future will include as many as 10 additional customer touchpoints. Deciding which channels to incorporate into your strategy is crucial to defining your organization's future in digital customer experience.”

Source: Forrester, Unify The Digital Experience Across Touchpoints, August 2012

@lindroux @siteworx #contentmarketing

MULTI-CHANNEL DIGITAL STRATEGY The Company should own every touchpoint along the customer journey. Mapping content to channel and market segment specific goals will result in greater immersion in the brand, and ultimately higher conversion rates. Create once, publish everywhere, but in a contextually relevant way.
