Keeping the customer at the center of your business concerns is the key to success in just about any business, panelists at ad:tech New York said at a session titled “Web Site Analytics: It’s All About the Customer.”

Software provider Omniture is currently helping JetBlue to better customer experience.

“Our business optimization platform captures data like visits, unique visitors, click paths, attrition and campaign performance,” said Matt Belkin, vice president of best practices group at Omniture, Orem, UT.

JetBlue measures search keyword behavior and ties it to revenues, he said. Then it optimizes its search, providing a better overall customer experience.

“Measuring satisfaction is all about accurately capturing the voice of the customer, said Jerry Tarasofsky, president and CEO of iPerceptions, New York.

“ Traditional behavioral research solutions explain what is happening,” he said. “Our attitudinal analytic solutions continuously capture the multichannel voices of your customers, both online and offline to provide critical insights into why it is happening.”

iPerceptions strategy involves listening to actual customer in the context of real situations. Segmenting allows our clients to better understand their customer, and separate their most important customers from the many voices of the crowd.
