Optimizing Multi-Channel Marketing
        Programs can be a Major Challenge
        Teams on islands with isolated data often achieve sub-optimal
        results

Teams Need a Holistic View of How their
        Customers Engage with Media
        Campaigns
        We need to understand all of the campaign touch points in the
        customer lifecycle and how much they contribute to helping us
        reach our goals

Siloed Teams and Data Forces Use of

 across multiple channels, over extended periods of time

Without a Holistic View of Where

        Optimizing media without understanding what’s really driving

Evaluating Every Touch Point Helps
        Teams Have a More Holistic View of the
