Customer Experience Marketing: Aligning Marketing & Customer Experience
The same title can mean very different things in terms of responsibilities, and one of the most fluid is Chief Customer Officer (CCO). As B2B companies define what they need to deliver great experiences and impact, not to mention retain and expand customer relationships, the role of the CCO can be a game changer-- or an afterthought. Where do you stand? And how do marketing and the CCO align and collaborate?
Join Megan Heuer and me on Friday, April 12th at 11 am ET/8 am PT as we welcome Lisa Nakano, noted expert on all things customer. Lisa has served as a customer engagement executive and advisor to CCOs with SiriusDecisions and Forrester speaking with hundreds of companies about how they deploy the role and what impact it can have. She'll talk with us about the options for CCOs, and when to choose each version of the role. She'll also set us straight on how the CCO can work with the marketing team to deliver customer experiences that stand out, not break down.
