Top of your list of things to do in 2008: refine your customer data quality and make sure you have appropriate access to it. That's what Forrester Research is telling B2B marketers that they need to be thinking about.

“Marketers we interviewed agreed that more comprehensive customer data help them address prospects directly, understand specifically how they buy and more accurately measure marketing’s impact on business,” said Laura Ramos, VP-principal analyst at Forrester Research.
Now, how many of them will actually put their good intentions into practice?
