This need is driven by a customer-centric approach\u2014the goal of creating the best product for the customer in the classic price\/quality paradigm. The company that can most effectively understand its customers and swiftly modify its product will ultimately win. This is a winning strategy.

We can see graphs, numbers, and letters. But don\u2019t relax just yet, because we\u2019ve only completed the first and simplest part of data collection. To use this data to form and test hypotheses, we need to understand what exactly it\u2019s telling us. In other words, we need to model user behavior, at least in our minds. We need to answer questions like: What did this specific person do? Why did the person do it that way? And was the person satisfied? Customer 360 is an analytical tool that, when used correctly, can help us answer some of these questions."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_block","text_content":"The 360 customer view is a comprehensive set of measures and tools that allow for the consolidation of accumulated data from various information systems (such as ERP, CRM, etc.) and analytical systems (such as GA) to enhance the understanding of customer behavior.

As any professional manager would, we invest in marketing and its offspring, advertising.

Our ERP system shows that for the 7 PM show-times of \u201cGone with the Wind\u201d last Monday, we sold 200 out of 300 available tickets. Moreover, online sales accounted for 50% of total sales, while the remaining 50% were offline purchases.

Additionally, 2% of those who bought tickets through the mobile app also watched trailers on the website (following a link in our email newsletter).\r\n\r\nSo, this example demonstrates, that our previous conclusion about the cost of customer acquisition through different channels without the 360-degree customer view was inaccurate."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image_block","image":1276,"image_caption":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_block","text_content":"<h2><strong>Example 2: Complex Sales Funnel<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nImagine a business with a complex sales process where lead generation and sales are handled by separate teams.
