SalesTech Quote-of-the-Week!
There are two primary ways digital identity can help sales teams drive customer engagement initiatives. First, solutions like ours can help ensure that sales and marketing are connecting with the right people on the right channel. Our solutions can, for instance, help identify when a number changes owners, or if a phone number is a landline, VoIP, or mobile number. This intelligence can signal that you need to refresh a customer’s contact information, or if they can receive a text message to that number. Second, digital identity can lower friction in the signup and account creation process without sacrificing security. This is important since customers will abandon signups that have too many steps or hurdles.
