The patterns behind the person: Why leaders need to know their best (and worst) customers

In our 2nd episode, we talk to Dr. Peter Fader, one of the world’s foremost authorities on consumer behavior and customer-centered business. He is a professor at the Wharton School of Business and was named to Advertising Age’s first-ever list of 25 Marketing Technology Trailblazers in 2017. He’s most recently published The Customer Base Audit, a guide to getting to really understand customer buying behavior. That’s especially important in the current economic climate, as companies and their leaders look to get more value from their activities and their customers.

As a professor, author, and business owner, Peter uncovers patterns of consumer behavior across a wide range of industries. His pioneering work in behavior data analysis has shaped the way we forecast purchasing trends and continues to help companies build better customer relationship strategies and position new products effectively.
