Companies face rising costs across energy, transportation, insurance, inventory, and technology. CSCOs must work closely with CFOs to manage budget impacts and strengthen supply chain resilience through supplier network assessment and risk mitigation planning.

A Gartner survey reveals that personalized marketing, while driving some positive outcomes, leads to negative experiences for 53% of customers. The study of 1,464 B2B buyers and consumers found that personalization makes customers 3.2x more likely to regret purchases and 44% less likely to repurchase, despite being 1.8x more likely to pay premium prices. The research highlights a paradox where customers feel overwhelmed and pressured during purchase journeys. However, Gartner introduces 'active personalization' as a solution, showing 2.3x higher confidence in purchase decisions compared to traditional methods. This approach focuses on customer engagement through interactive experiences, empowering individuals to make better decisions while generating valuable zero-party data for businesses.
