52. What We Learned
1. The omnichannel journey begins with the first step
2. Customers are human! (just like you)
3. It’s about relevancy
4. Be prepared - continuously testing and optimizing all programs –
it never stops
5. What we are doing is working – Sony ranked #4 in Adweek’s 100
most loved companies
