Multi-Channel by Design not Accident It’s all about the Customer Journey
“Omni channel is ensuring a consistent, high quality customer experience regardless of how and where a customer chooses to interact with an organization, and no matter the purpose. It ensures that data and context from initial contact carries over to subsequent channels, reducing customer effort, improving the customer interaction, and enabling the business to tailor the customer journey.”
