He works with firms from a wide range of industries, such as telecommunications,financial services, gaming/entertainment, retailing, and pharmaceuticals. Managerial applications focus on topics such as customer relationship management, lifetime value of the customer, and sales forecasting for new products.

These insights are reflected in his book, “Customer Centricity: Focus on the Right Customers for Strategic Advantage.” Professor Fader believes that marketing should not be viewed as a “soft” discipline, and he frequently works with different companies and industry associations to improve managerial perspectives in this regard.
