Marketing and sales site 1 to 1 Media pointed out that the seamless experience, wherein customers effortlessly interact with a company through many different communication channels, is both a trend and a good business practice. The omnichannel concept is an expansion of the original term multichannel, with the difference being an emphasis on seamless interaction and transition between different avenues of communication, whether it's through phone calls, email, social media or in-person conversation. The same concept applies for sales. With the NetSuite ERP solution, businesses can effectively manage omnichannel experiences.
