360 customer data view: The digital cloud

Single Customer View

Joined up data every step of the way

Customer 360

Joining up data from every step of the customer journey

Traditional multi-channel approaches may help you to meet increasingly steep AOV and purchase KPI’s, but it’s a short-term solution to a longer-term issue. To create a lasting relationship with your customers, you need to focus on building an understanding of their behaviours, needs and motivations – and that is enabled with data.

 

This rich data view of the customer isn’t just focussed on acquisition, it influences and drives every part of the customer journey online and in store, across all customer interactions and maximises the potential of each touchpoint.

360 view of customer: customer touchpoints

DATA DRIVEN MARKETING

A top-down view of all your customers’ needs

Data underpins every point in an omnichannel process and can give you the insight you need to create a personal relationship with your customer. A 360 view shows you all the possibilities for you to interact with your customer and how you can build a connected solution to allow them flexibility throughout their buying journey.

 

Your customer may start browsing for a product on an app at home, then engage with retargeted advert, or they might add things to a wish list and sign up for email marketing. All of this can happen without them making any decision to purchase. They may want to go in store to see the product, and then may make the purchase from the comfort of their couch! And post purchase, they may need to contact customer services, maybe join your loyalty scheme.

A study by Gartner predicts that by 2023, organisations that have invested in a single customer view will outperform those that haven't by 25% in customer satisfaction metrics

Omni-channel customer touchpoints

Taking a holistic view of the customer journey, and the multiple touchpoints within it, both online and physical, will allow you to deliver a first-class customer experience and complete flexibility.  This starts even before the buying journey begins, with marketing and advertising, and doesn’t end after the purchase is made. With this data you can develop solutions that allow you to connect with your customer base in an intelligent way, anytime, and through any channel.
