Unified Customer View
View of customer information includes feedback, purchase history, and preferences gathered from the web, phone, retail stores, and factory outlets.
The Brooks Brothers fashion brand is over 200 years old. The iconic company is zealous about staying relevant and exciting in a rapidly changing industry. One way the company does that is by using technology to get closer to its customers than ever before.
The Brooks Brothers’ vision was a 360-degree view of the customer, enabling the brand to respond to customers quickly and with a highly personalized approach.
“If you’re our best customer in Tokyo and you come to our store on Madison Avenue,” says Sahal Laher, former CIO of Brooks Brothers, “We need to know who you are.”
