The mantra for virtually every commercial organization is to better understand their customers and their behavior. Online engagements make that easy, as tracking how many people visited a website, the pages they visited, and in what order, and how long they stayed on each page and on the site are common. Organizations are now looking for ways to get that same information for those who physically visit brick and mortar stores, retail bank branches, and even trade show exhibition space. This month Inpixon will share with us how they are solving this problem.
