2. Get interactive and real (-time) You own an online relationship, so take advantage of it!

When a transaction is complete, that is the best time to find out

what your customer is really thinking

pulse, not an event

Immediate capture of customer reactions provides competitive

advantage• Rapid reporting

• Solving problems

• Recognizing trends

• Positioning as a leader

• Proprietary capture of emerging requirements
