Communicating with your customers is a good thing, right? Well, what about when some of your outbound communications end up repelling customers rather than attracting them?
Today we’re going to discuss advanced customer interaction strategies with John Kim, Co-Founder & CEO of Sendbird. We’ll dive into the effectiveness of in-app messaging, the rise of mobile engagement, and the evolving machine-to-machine economy.
