In a sign of the increasing importance of optimising the value of online and offline customer interactions and understanding multichannel customer analytics, UK venture builder Blenheim Chalcot is snapping up customer journey analytics firm iJento.
iJento integrates web data with CRM, call centre, marketing and sales data, stitching individual visitors’ journeys across all these. It is aimed at the financial services industry, as well as travel entertainment, media and publishing.
Blenheim Chalcot says that it is planning to combine the business with its other engagement and behaviour analytics and intervention technologies to help businesses see how their customers are interacting across these different channels and how they can maximise the value of that interaction in real time.
The move comes as many more businesses are now taking a data-driven approach to their online sales and marketing activities as well as delivering their services online.
