WHAT: Forrester Research Automotive Summit: Using Technology To
Unlock Customer Value
Despite the record-breaking sales levels of the late 1990s,
most automakers aren't achieving acceptable margins -- a
shortcoming that the current economic downturn painfully
exposes. As customer acquisition costs continue to climb
and retention levels deteriorate, Forrester believes that
leading OEMs will effectively deploy technology solutions
to unlock customer value. So which technologies will help?
This one-day Event will cut through the hype and zero in
on how CRM and telematics will transform the marketing,
sales, and after-sales functions in the auto industry.
Key takeaways:
-- Which CRM strategies will deliver real benefits for OEMs
and dealers?
-- How will telematics drive economic value?
-- How will next-generation online efforts reduce customer
acquisition costs?
