Examining the journeys customers take when purchasing products or services, the decisions they take and why. This talk gives an insight into customer behaviours and how, with understanding, this can be utilised to improve the customer experience and lifetime​ value of the customer.

The report examined how the pathway for consumer journeys is steadily becoming more digitised, with the number of digital touchpoints increasing by 20% every year. What hoops do organisations need to jump through in order to meet the changing demands of a younger, digitally oriented consumer?
