Testimonial

This is no longer an issue… With ChannelSight’s reporting we have access to advanced performance insights at the click of a button. From this, we can see the overall revenue potential of our marketing effort - both organic and paid” - Michael Knott, Director of Digital Media, Programs and Analytics at Logitech
Brands like Logitech use ChannelSight’s cross-channel tracking to understand the true impact of both their paid and organic media.

Now, it has sales insights from across its entire sales network.

By sending shoppers directly to their preferred retail sites, your brand should achieve greater conversion rates. Otherwise, the user journey would be more complex and more prospects would be lost along the way.
