tThe challenge of multichannel customer data

Understanding who your customers are is the very foundation of a successful directto-consumer ( DTC ) brand . But as customer journeys become more fragmented with data scattered across multiple channels and platforms , it ’ s tough to get a holistic view of all the touchpoints .
The team at Mancave wanted to know more about its customers ’ buying habits , the marketing channels they engaged with and the role played by both physical stores and third party retailers in their journey .
It was about to undertake a strategic shift that aligned with its goal to grow its DTC Shopify store revenue profitably and sustainably , so the timing was crucial . Ultimately , the team needed to understand what keeps customers coming back .
