The Customer Centricity Manifesto: Leverage Customer Lifetime Value to Create a Winning Strategy
By Peter Fader, Sarah E. Toms
"Companies are struggling to turn today's wealth of information into actionable insights that drive value for their organization—and for customers—because frankly, most business approaches to sales, marketing, data analytics, and finance remain stuck in a bygone era."
The original idea behind ChangeThis came from Seth Godin, and was built in the summer of 2004 by Amit Gupta, Catherine Hickey, Noah Weiss, Phoebe Espiritu, and Michelle Sriwongtong. In the summer of 2005, ChangeThis was turned over to 800-CEO-READ. In addition to selling and writing about books, they kept ChangeThis up and running as a standalone website for 14 years. In 2019, 800-CEO-READ became Porchlight, and we pulled ChangeThis together with the rest of our editorial content under the website you see now. We remain committed to the high-design quality and independent spirit of the original team that brought ChangeThis into the world.
