    Why is this approach relevant for companies?

    As a digital agency, Merkle can take a holistic approach, as all touchpoints, such as websites, social media, service centres, webshops, etc. can be offered and realised. Thus, everything from technical implementation to content creation is taken care of by us. In this way, we see ourselves as a full-service provider for all aspects of customer experience.

    Merkle pursues an approach that goes far beyond this classic CRM way of thinking - this considers the complete customer journey across all touchpoints and is optimally supported by the Salesforce platform.

    In doing so, we focus primarily on the following three success factors: 

    • Proper use of customer data 
    • Appropriate metrics 
    • Emotional customer retention

    Three success factors for your digital marketing:

    Data privacy awareness

    Consumers expect a personal relationship with brands. This is based on trust and shared values. It is therefore particularly important that companies understand the needs of their customers.

    However, this also includes the increasing awareness of personal data and its use. Future-oriented marketing realizes this - and accomplishes the balancing act between privacy and target group analysis. Companies should therefore collect relevant information with focused core questions instead of gathering data indiscriminately.

    How to measure the right way

    It is similar to collecting customer data when it comes to measuring key performance indicators. Not all KPIs have an impact on your company's success. Therefore, define long-term achievable business goals and derive meaningful interim steps. In this way, you will find metrics that actually influence your success

    Emotion as an attraction

    For a long time, bonus points and reward programs were the gold standard in customer loyalty - even in digital form. But today's consumerswant more than just the convenience.

    They want an authentic insight into the company and its values. This should be creative, exciting and entertaining - and thus appeal to the emotions of the users. 

     

    With these three success factors and Salesforce, you can create a compelling customer experience.
