Beware of the Personalization of Everything - Gartner

Beware of the Personalization of Everything - Gartner | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it
Some personalization efforts have a meaningful effect on the overall customer experience by making customers lives easier. Other tactics, particularly those that focus solely on messaging, may have a limited impact, leading to only minor improvements in marketing metrics—a slight bump in the email open rate or minuscule increase in click through rate—and no real change in business outcomes. Every bit counts, but personalization takes significant upfront investment and should be prioritized based on what matters most to customers. Don’t just personalize marketing, deliver a personalized experience.

Personalizing even a single aspect of the customer experience, such as marketing, takes sustained investments in customer data and analytics—including spending on data management and analytic tools, hiring the right analytical talent, and developing or revamping marketing processes. It also requires technology and techniques that allow marketers to apply insight to execution, such as prioritizing marketing channels and platforms that enable audience segmentation and targeting over those that only support generic customer engagement.

Big Data and Your Website: Personalizing the Customer Experience | Right On Interactive | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it

"Data is the new natural resource. What steam and oil did during the industrial revolution data is doing for us now. Today, we are competing on a whole different scale and the company that is able to collect the most relevant data will win. IBM CEO, Ginny Rometty, was recently quoted as saying that “Data will be the death of the average."


Key excerpt...


The solution is to adjust your website experience by integrating personalized and dynamic content. Essentially, this is a strategy in which the website content is dynamic enough to recognize the visitor and present them with content they are most interested in obtaining. Take for instance a website of an accounting business. This accounting business offers many different types of professional accounting services to companies. But when a website visitor searches for “small business tax accountants” and arrives at their company website then the website will dynamically show content front and center that promotes their small business tax services. Another visitor may search on “company evaluations” and again arrive at this company site. But now, the content changes to a call-to-action to a downloadable whitepaper on the topic of company evaluations.

Here's what the B2B marketer needs: dynamic CMS integrated with marketing automation and CRM, with a predictive engine built in. With that, your web site is continually unique. We also want a fleet of Porsches.
