What Is Personalisation?
What Is Personalisation?
The concept of personalisation is complex. In marketing and e-commerce, personalisation is first and foremost a communication strategy.
The goal of this strategy is to improve your customers' user experience so that they choose your company over all the other options.
To achieve this, users receive personalised content that is tailored to their needs and preferences. Layouts, prices, products, texts and images vary depending on user behaviour – people may even be addressed by their first name.
Personalisation Strategies
A suitable personalisation strategy is required to ensure that existing and potential users do not have to go through a cookie-cutter experience.
If this strategy is perfectly aligned with your business goals, you can effectively address your target audience throughout the entire customer life cycle. This allows you to provide your customers with a more personalised experience that sets you apart from the competition.
Basis for Personalisation
You need high-quality data if you want your personalisation measures to be successful.
Various tracking systems and user research can help you collect user data. You can then use analytics tools to cluster and segment the gathered information. This provides you with the ideal basis for creating personalised content and distributing it across a wide range of channels.
Personalisation in Practice
Personalisation focuses on multiple touchpoints and can even be used when it comes to complex customer journeys.
The best practice is to offer your target audience the same personalised experience at every touchpoint. Channels for personalised content include websites, e-mails, mobile devices and print products – and the range of options continues to grow.
