Building Trust From Search To Query

Thursday, May 20, 12:30 to 1:30 “Search” and “Query” are not synonyms.

Consumers struggle with too much information to process. They need a way to quickly explore what they are looking for and then, equally as easily, exploit that information to take action. Brands need to rethink their persona-based marketing in a world where every question asked is their most valuable asset in designing a multi-dimensional customer experience.
