<p>According to Alterian&#8217;s 7th Annual Industry Survey, marketers must move from a focus on siloed campaigns to an emphasis on listening and communicating with consumers across channels.  More than one-half of marketers worldwide reported directing at least &#8220;a fair amount&#8221; of effort toward integrating their communication strategies to emphasize multichannel consumer engagement.</p>
<p>&#8220;The only communication tolerated by consumers are those that are appropriate, timely and relevant &#8211; regardless of channel.  Engaging with customers is becoming paramount and the yardstick by which we measure those brands that survive and those that don&#8217;t.  Marketers now need to appeal to the individual and engage with customers on a one-to-one basis,&#8221; said David Eldridge, Alterian CEO.</p>
