Senior Vice President Ed Shepherdson Will Help Attendees Learn How to Engage Customers by Engaging Knowledge Across Social Media, Cloud-Based and Enterprise Systems


QUEBEC--(Marketwire - May 14, 2012) - Coveo today announced that Ed Shepherdson, senior vice president, Enterprise Solutions, will lead and participate in two sessions during the 10th annual SCORE Conference, an Omega Management Group conference in Boston May 16 and 17, 2012. His first session, "The Insight Advantage" workshop, will focus on how companies can become more customer centric to be more competitive, increase customer satisfaction and loyalty and increase revenue. The second session, "Managing the Customer Experience: One Experience at a Time," is a panel discussion about the importance and benefits of managing the customer experience consistently across all touch points.

The "The Insight Advantage" workshop, Wednesday, May 16, from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. EDT, will cover the following:

  • The challenges facing customer service organizations as the proliferation of social media and cloud-based systems accelerate information fragmentation and growth
  • A new and non-disruptive method of consolidating, enriching and instantly presenting customer data across multiple information silos, from social media to SaaS systems to information systems behind corporate firewalls
  • How to use this information to knock down legacy barriers and beat the competition in customer engagement, satisfaction and loyalty
  • The differences between this new approach to information integration, that leaves data where it resides and leverages existing systems, and complex integration strategies such as Master Data Management (MDM)

The "Managing the Customer Experience: One Experience at a Time" panel, Thursday, May 17, from 10:30 to 11:15 a.m. EDT, will discuss:

  • Best practices in how to gain competitive advantage through customer intelligence
  • The tools used to get ahead of the competition while strengthening customer relationships
  • How companies are using customer data to design an end-to-end customer experience that meets its customers' changing needs, and how to deliver consistently upon that design across all customer touch points
