  • Defining roles and allocating new responsibilities for customer data stewardship
  • Building a center of excellence to develop and promote standards and operating procedures
  • Aligning partners such as agencies, key suppliers, and media platforms
  • Developing comprehensive use cases that improve (not mimic) current-state capabilities
  • This requires a commitment to organizational change and clear and explicit direction from leadership about that commitment.

    Final Thoughts

    Real and meaningful business applications for customer data come to fruition through the combination of well-implemented technology and organizational design (and all the required effort.) Enterprises that follow this guidance realize outsize returns on their technology investments, while those who pursue a tech-only solution are destined to underperform on their ambitions.
