4 4 CREATING A SEAMLESS CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE THE EVENTS Your customers expect to move seamlessly between marketing, ecommerce and customer service channels. For businesses to create a single, unified customer experience, no individual function can act in isolation. The CMO, CTO, Ecommerce Director & Customer Service Directors have to collaborate, making the buying and implementation of technologies more complicated than ever before. That is why from 2016, Customer Contact Expo will run alongside ecommerce Expo and Technology for Marketing uniting marketing, ecommerce and customer service professionals working across the entire customer journey from acquisition and conversion through to delivery & fulfillment, customer service and customer retention. Europe s no.1 exhibition and conference for contact centre and customer service professionals EACH EVENT WILL ALSO: Retain its core identity, brand and USPs Maintain its dedicated content and seminar programmes Continue to focus on its core vendor and visitor base Preserve its highly targeted marketing and communications campaign Continue to be supported by a dedicated sales and marketing team The UK s leading event for marketers to source, understand and maximise the use of technology powered marketing BRINGING TOGETHER THE BUYING CHAIN The UK s biggest marketplace for buyers and suppliers of the latest ecommerce technology, products and services On average, between 4 and 6 people now formally sign off a B2B purchase* * These three events will connect you to the right people within the customer technology buying chain from specifier to influencer, researcher to authoriser. More customer technologies on show = more reasons for businesses to send their entire buying chain. I think it s a very good move to bring the events together, as marketing, ecommerce and customer service are different touch-points with the same customer. It will help us move towards technology-enabled marketing. We need to stop thinking about digital as being something separate and go back to thinking about a customerled organisation. Amanda Rendle, Global Head of Marketing, HSBC We re excited to hear that TFM will be co-locating with Customer Contact Expo and ecommerce Expo in 2016 at Olympia. With customer data driving marketing s interactions with their customers, alongside the vast amount of insights gathered by the contact centre, we see this co-location as a natural progression of where both markets are heading. Ann-Marie Stagg, Call Centre Managers Association
