Marketing Myth: Customers only care about price

It sounds great to say a business decision was “data-driven”, but when is data not good enough – and when should you be listening to common sense instead? Brands are becoming increasingly reliant on data as a good indicator of what to do next and what to avoid, but it’s possible to go too far. 

Are you making the most of the data you have, or is the real path to success getting muddled somewhere along the line?

- How to effectively use data to get inside your customers’ heads

Discover what happens when personalisation goes right – and very badly wrong.

- The evolution of modern personalisation trends
