In the age of the customer, the expectation for retailers to deliver consistent online and offline experiences is extremely high. Customers don’t care if building these experiences requires a complex, multifunction approach from across your business. They want immediate value and will go elsewhere if you can’t provide it. The battle for consumer attention makes it an imperative for retail marketers to deliver superior customer experiences and business results. According to Forrester, 89 percent of digital businesses are investing in personalization to align with customer expectations.
Retailers of all shapes and sizes need to streamline their operations and engage a customer base that increasingly leverages multiple touchpoints. This is especially true because reaching customers through their preferred channels is more profitable. Budget, resources, and reliance on IT for all martech activity often become major hurdles to success. Despite these constraints, retail marketers are still held accountable to increase revenue while lowering costs of interaction. So how do retail marketers do more with less?
The answer lies in a set of breakthrough capabilities that empower marketers to deliver contextually relevant offers and messages to consumers. These capabilities include access to all relevant customer data to drive personalization, often called a “single customer view,” and a single point of control to power omnichannel customer experiences. It’s for these reasons that I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Redpoint SaaS Delivery Option.
