Integration Drives Customer Experience Management for Omnichannel Retailers
Consumers generate data every time they interact with a brand. Clicking a digital ad, browsing a website, cashing out at a brick-and-mortar store, or using a retailer’s mobile app…each interaction creates a veritable gold mine of information that retailers and consumer goods companies can use to drive sales.
If properly harnessed, that data provides the foundation for customer experience management (CEM) — the ability to understand consumer behavior and preferences, create a unified 360-degree customer view, and generate insights for consistent, personalized engagement across any channel.

4 Ways That Top-Performing Sales Teams Make the Most of Data Integration, API Management and Workflow Automation
We’re living in the Age of the Customer. It’s an age without sales pitches.
That’s a conclusion from Salesforce’s second annual “State of Sales” report, which was released last fall.
“No sales pitches” doesn’t mean that salespeople are sitting anxiously in their cubicles, waiting for the phone to ring. It means consultative selling is more important than ever.
Thanks to the Internet, customers are far more informed about your products and your competitors long before your salespeople talk to them.

For companies interested in being “cloud-first,” most of the discussions out in the Googlesphere focus on managing the challenges of incrementally — to one degree or another — moving your organization to this ideal future state.

From Integration to Synchronization: Using a Hub-Based Approach to Ensure Data Integrity Across Your Business
You’ve connected your most critical business applications to one another. Data — the lifeblood of any organization — is now moving easily from one system to another throughout your organization.
And now you need a way of ensuring the integrity of that data.
When the finance department updates a billing record, does that change make its way to the customer relationship management (CRM) application? When a warehouse receives a new shipment of products, is that information updated in a timely way across departments?
