The transition from Company focus to Customer-
focus
Company focus CUSTOMER FOCUS
• The larger the blast, the
better
• Multiple areas competing for
audience
• Rigid Contact policy to
protect customer
• Only basic segmentation
capabilities…declining OR &
CTR
• Focus on $$$ only
• Only email
• Only contact with relevant
messages
• Right message at Right Time
• Contact policy based on
Customer´s request or behaviour
• Advances segmentation + trigger
emails Improved OR, CTR &
Conversion
• Focus on Customer Engagement
& long-term value
• The channel the Customer wants
18
On the road to a multi-channel
strategy…..
• How can we develop a 360° view of all communications to the customer
(operational, promotional + relational)?
• How do we exclude all “contingency cases” from short-term promotional
activities?
• How can we identify who our SM fans are when they have a problem and
ensure Social Media Service cases are linked to database for future
identification?
• Use email database to fuel Custom Audience iniciatives in facebook
• Use email database to positively or negatively target display/video marketing
• Increasing preference Center info. To collect Mobile + social sign-ins
• Use SEARCH to obtain new emails

Wrap-up
1) Smart Rendering: optimise for platform &
opening time
2) Personalization….which goes beyond first name
merge.
3) Triggered Sophistication: - most relevant &
effective mails
4) Unique Voice: Abandon the
promotional/corporate voice for something more
helpful, conversational and YOU
