Roundtable: Sales Through Service
Customer service and sales teams have historically been managed as separate departments, however many organisations now recognise there are myriad opportunities being presented to them via customer service-related interactions. Unless these are approached at the right time and in the right manner, this opportunity can easily be lost.

During this open discussion we will share how our brands are driving sales through service. What’s required to ensure opportunities are taken when they arise? What does the North Star look like?
