  HERE’S HOW THEYDID IT MIZUNO USA HERSCHEND FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT Prior to the implementation of a new CMS (Content Management System), Mizuno worked through challenges with an MTS (Marketing Technology Strategy). This included a deep discussion about the current technologies, internal processes, and the benchmarks over the next year. Customers' online check-out experience wasn’t ideal and an in-depth discussion and mapping of the customer journey was completed to gain a better grasp of who their customers were. Herschend wanted to implement the latest version of their CMS (Content Management System) to empower their individual properties to improve their ability to manage content, implement personalization and more effectively align business goals with their websites. The success of the project was, in part achieved by customer journey mapping and aligning technology with strategy through an MTS (Marketing Technology Strategy).
