As digital and marketing landscapes become increasingly regulated, first-party data will be critical in creating valuable customer experiences. Join Credera data and technology leaders Vincent Yates, Jason Goth, and Kevin Erickson on the latest episode of our Technology Tangents podcast, where the three discuss how to create value that drives data sharing and tips for building a lucrative first-party data strategy: https://lnkd.in/gQcSUUp3 #Data #DataPrivacy #Technology

Love the examples used here of why this topic is so important. Bringing it back to relatable scenarios is so helpful to remind organisations: anything less than a seamless experience will stop your customer coming back to you. Enriching your data is necessary and is the new standard in customer expectations. I'm already starting to experience this in the B2B world, where I expect companies I work or partner with to know me. If they don't, they come across as unprofessional - or at the very least, behind the times.

In the latest #MillenniumLive podcast, Arnjah Dillard, CAPM, Retail Practice Lead at Stibo Systems, dives into the most pressing trends shaping retail today. #betterdata #betterbusiness #betterworld
