How to Supercharge Your Analytics to Improve Your Customer Experience
Traditional analytics tools tell you what's happening on your website, but not necessarily why. If we're serious about improving the user experience and reducing customer struggle, we need to overlay these numbers with real customer behaviour. Watching customers interact with your website in their own environment, be it on desktop or mobile, brings their issues to life - giving you the opportunity to build an action plan to reduce their struggle and achieve your conversion rate goals.
This session has been curated in partnership with SessionCam.
