Growth Hacks in Action: Mastering the Digital Customer Journey

🗓️ Thursday, 4 DECEMBER 2025 
🕖 11:30 – 2:30 PM 
📍 Bopp & Tone, Sydney

Your customer journey is leaking revenue. In this unfiltered conversation, digital leaders move beyond buzzwords to dissect the precise points of failure – costly website downtime, margin-eroding pricing errors, and the revenue leakage from poor conversion funnels. This session is a deep dive into the data-driven strategies and cross-channel personalisation frameworks used to transform these vulnerabilities into a high-performance growth engine. Learn how to architect a customer experience that not only converts but builds lasting customer equity.
