The Challenge
Legends Global needed to overcome several challenges that were preventing teams from making fast, data-driven commercial decisions. The main challenges included:
- Data was spread across multiple systems, preventing a single, joined-up view of customer and commercial performance.
- Insight was often delayed or overly aggregated, making it difficult to understand performance at an individual rights holder level in real time.
- Teams and client stakeholders lacked access to a consistent set of trusted reports and dashboards, leading to fragmented decision-making.
- Valuable insights existed but were difficult to action quickly, limiting the speed and effectiveness of data-driven marketing activity.
The Solution
Legends Global partnered with XCM to implement a bespoke Horizon CDP solution that unified data, simplified reporting and enabled better commercial insight across the organisation. The solution delivered:
- An integrated data platform bringing together retail, product and digital interaction data into a single customer view.
- Consolidation of sales data from multiple systems into one trusted source of truth, removing duplication and ensuring consistent reporting.
- Dedicated Horizon CDP environments for each rights holder, providing tailored reporting, insight and activation.
- Intuitive self-service dashboards that reduced manual reporting while enabling faster, data-led decision making.
The Results
Following implementation, Legends Global transformed the way teams accessed and acted upon business intelligence. The Horizon CDP platform now provides:
- A real-time single customer view (SCV).
- An integrated and scalable data platform.
- Dedicated client-level Horizon CDP instances.
- Self-service reporting and business intelligence across the organisation.
Project Perspectives

The platform has been embraced across the business and now underpins how we understand and optimise performance.”Paul Gunn - VP International Ecommerce & Digital Marketing, Legends Global
“Legends Global had a clear vision to put data at the centre of decision-making throughout its retail and merchandising operations, extending that capability across their client portfolio. By combining that ambition with Horizon CDP’s flexibility and scalability, we’ve built a solution that empowers teams with real-time insight, drives commercial performance and creates a platform for long-term growth.”Luke Ibbetson - Chief Executive Officer, XCM
