Michael Leander speaking about social media as a method to build customer relations

“Social media and social networks play a big role in customer engagement”, says Michael Leander. In Cracow, he will speak about how organizations can utilize social media to increase the customer experience and improve customer service.  He adds “with only 40 minutes in the plenary session, there is a limit to how much knowledge I can pass on. But my intention is to touch on three important concepts that are important for loyalty marketers.

The second is how to measure the customer experience and the conversation in social media. And the third pillar will be how to utilize direct marketing to increase and sustain loyalty. I am looking very much forward to attending the conference as a speaker and attendee. This is definitely a conference where anyone can learn a lot - regardless of level of experience. ”
