Personalization Strategy
Personalization is a marketing strategy that involves contextualizing content to create the most meaningful experience for specific user segments to drive engagement. It's based on analyzing visitor behavior, user journeys, personas, and purchase history.
These data points are then used to create tailored digital experiences to drive conversions. When it's paired with thoughtful UX design thinking, personalization strategy can support a great product and an ideal user experience.
Creating a Personalization Strategy:
-
Set Clear Objectives: what are you trying to achieve? Define clear business and user goals.
-
Collect Data: understand customer behavior: what are their top concerns? What are the "blockers" to a purchase?
-
Segment Your Audience: who are your most valuable customers, the ones most likely to purchase and repurchase?
-
Develop User Personas: understand the behavior, patterns and themes of your most valuable customers to effectively communicate with them.
-
Map User Journeys: understand the path(s) a user will take on your website and message contextually to support a positive user experience and a purchase.
-
Create Customized Experiences: Create custom content to communicate in a way that resonates with specific customer segments. This includes on-brand messaging, benefit-driven copy, custom emails and CMS components targeted at specific segments for maximum impact.
-
Omnichannel Marketing: Extend targeted marketing to all channels for a unified, seamless customer experience from their first visit to post-purchase. If a user is on your website, mobile app or social media they will receive the right message at the right time based on their activity and customer profile.
-
Monitor Results: what's working? What isn't working? Iterate based on data. Content can always be revised.
