Businesses know more about their customers than ever before.
But in order to build a 360-degree view of these customers and transcend data “silos,” marketers need to build a holistic approach that’s focused on the customer, not the data — or the business units that control it.
The science of data-driven marketing starts with the art of identifying the right metric, those that will give you a complete view of customer engagement, retention, and lifetime value.
One case study that proves the point: The partnership between personalized marketing technology provider Sailthru and ecommerce portfolio company Acumen Brands.
After Acumen started using Sailthru to help deliver personalized emails, purchase conversion has also increased by 20 percent. And active users and engagement experienced a lift across the board — thanks to Acumen’s omni-channel personalization strategy.
Today, we’re thrilled to announce execs from both of these companies will be speaking at GrowthBeat, VentureBeat’s upcoming marketing-technology event.
Session Speakers:
Cassie Lancellotti-Young, VP of Optimization and Analytics, Sailthru
Ben Roberts, VP of Marketing Operations, Acumen Brands
