This pandemic has revealed a unique opportunity for customer service organizations. On one hand, it has elevated the importance of customer service to nurture customers to retain their loyalty — and spend. Case in point? Growing revenue and improving customer experiences are top post-pandemic business priorities.
On the other hand, the pandemic has accelerated modernization strategies that were already underway, such as digitization and cloud adoption — the value of which will extend far beyond the current circumstances.
To emerge stronger and leaner from the pandemic, you will have to reimagine your current strategy and long-term investments in digitization, AI, and automation. You will also have to focus on operational agility and resilience to quickly adapt to the unexpected. This webinar highlights the three megatrends that customer service leaders must stay abreast of to weather the storm in 2021.

Seismic shifts in buying group behavior and business dynamics are wreaking havoc on the frontline B2B marketing teams accountable for revenue, such as demand marketing, account-based marketing (ABM), and customer marketing. All marketing teams share some responsibility for addressing changing buyer behaviors and influencing revenue, but frontline marketing teams that are directly accountable for pipeline and revenue are most susceptible to changing buying behaviors. For them, failure to meet pipeline or revenue objectives could mean termination.In this webinar, Forrester Research Directors Steve Casey and Lisa Nakano lead a panel discussion with B2B marketing analysts John Arnold, Lisa Gately, and Malachi Threadgill to unpack a major mindset shift happening in the most progressive B2B marketing organizations. Forrester calls this mindset shift lifecycle revenue marketing (LRM).
