Buyers now complete much of their decision on customer journey automation before speaking to anyone. Attribution in this strand of marketing and commercial practice is imperfect; that is not a reason to stop measuring it. The programme is built to be used, and every section of the marketing and commercial practice discipline it covers ends in something applicable. Practitioner evidence points the same way: customer journey automation improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. Progress on this part of marketing and commercial practice is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about the marketing and commercial practice discipline in their own setting. Participants who influence customer journey automation without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to this aspect of marketing and commercial practice in an order their organisation can absorb. Participants leave with a plan for the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
