C-Level Leaders Offer Predictions For 2019
Carl explains how he anticipates AI-powered marketing attribution tools gaining traction in 2019. Businesses are still piecing together data points from different platforms. Many are still struggling to understand the full path to purchase. Which marketing channels are driving revenue? What kinds of content help retain customers and at which stage of the customer journey? Where are customers falling out of the funnel?
