To ensure employee safety, here are 7 ways to prepare for building emergencies.

Consumer Experience Research Study: The End Of Aimless Marketing

Poorly-targeted and irrelevant marketing materials are driving consumers away from their favourite brands. In research conducted with more than 2,000 consumers, we’ve found that only 6% of them believe the product and service offers they receive are clearly relevant to them. That’s despite over 60% demanding the offers sent from their favoured brands be tailored to them and their interests.

While the research indicates a failure of brands to deliver on that promise of marketing, which says, “we will send the right information to the right person at the right time,” it also demonstrates the market opportunity for businesses that put personalisation at the heart of their strategy and ensure tailored content is consistently provided to consumers. What’s essential in cultivating strong customer loyalty is building trust and an understanding of what matters to the individual. Technology can help bridge the gap between what marketers are able to do and the level at which they need their customer engagement to be.
