The Agile Brand Guide

Customer Journey Orchestration (CJO) enables marketers to create more engaging customer experiences that span online and offline channels, and generate greater customer loyalty and purchases over time. Consumers' demands for more consistency in the way that brands communicate with them, combined with the increase in channel switching between devices and methods by customers means that brands need to provide a personalized, omnichannel experience to stay competitive.
In this second edition of this best-selling installment in the series, Customer Journey Orchestration Platforms are explored and demystified, with over 50 additional pages of new content and insights, plus a guide to some of the leading platforms in the space. The Agile Brand Guide to Customer Journey Orchestration Platforms: Evaluating, Buying, and Implementing a CJO for Marketers by Greg Kihlström is now available in print as an ebook. The book explores marketers' need for a customer journey orchestration, as well as the roles a CJO platform should play, the different types on the market, as well as how to evaluate and implement a platform once you have selected it.
