    This presentation will talk about consumer facing
companies having a lot of information and how they fail to maximize the intelligence. Telecom companies in India for example have every single consumer interaction with the brand mapped, but seldom use it well.
It is observed that companies end up broadcasting messages on narrowcast channels

customer loyalty in a business.
