Experts in the Room

Welcome to Experts in the Room, the podcast where we dive deep into the world of customer engagement and uncover the strategies, tactics, and methodologies employed by experts in the field.

What to Expect

Customer engagement is a vital aspect of any business, but it often poses unique challenges. That’s why we’re here—to explore the diverse landscape of customer engagement and help you unlock the secrets to connecting with your customers on a deeper level.
