of this
Channel:
Multi-channel marketing is important
for the simple reason that companies
need be where the customers are
Multi-channel customers spend
three to four times more than
single-channel customers do
Customers today have more
control over the buying
process than marketers do
Customers have more choices when it comes
to how they want to get information
because of the amount of available channels
As the number of channels continues
to rise marketers will need to
embrace multi-channel marketing
