You can use this validation to determine which aspects of your website and marketing campaigns your visitors interact with the most.

This is especially important for content decisions, such as deciding what content will work best for your audience.

At this year’s conference, speakers for the digital marketing track include: 

Stephen Stewart from Lowe’s, Markus Dmytrzak from Sam’s Club, Scott Reid, CEO Dormeo North America, and many more.
