In today’s increasingly digital world, relevance is key. We’re not talking about emails or messages simply personalized with a customer’s name. No, consumers today seek out brands and companies that create experiences that match their needs and preferences. And this holds true across categories: banking, food and dining, travel and retail. According to Salesforce, 84% of consumers say that they choose brands that treat them like an individual person, and not a number. And 63% expect personalization as a standard part of the services that they choose.
Enterprises that can meet these customer expectations win better share-of-wallets, customer loyalty and increased spends. Market leaders today are investing in personalization to meet these customer expectations. Those who do, gain traffic and loyalty in addition to higher share-of-wallets and spends. Those who struggle with personalization lose out to competitors.
