Guitar Center has appointed Clinton Wu as the company’s first vice president of CRM and Customer Data Strategy. Wu will report directly to Jeannine D’Addario, senior vice president, chief marketing and communications officer.
Wu joins the Guitar Center company with more than 15 years of experience delivering innovative customer experiences by leading marketing strategies that drive engagement, build loyalty and bring results.
