Leading the charts with the fastest time to value (TTV)

Time to value can be simply defined as the time it takes to see results for a specific action/set of actions. When considering the “gap” between purchasing a marketing product and when it starts delivering returns — you want the gap to be ideally as short as possible.

There are a lot of factors that influence the duration of time to value, from the integration, data-mapping, customization, and personalization implementation. A marketing product that can efficiently enable all of these and deliver returns at the earliest is the most desirable.
