10 Ways Personalization Boosts Marketing Success



Marketing personalization is a strategy that uses data from customers to increase engagement. Such data could be the customer's interests, preferences, demographic information… etc. The more data they collect the more ideas they would have to keep their target audience interested. Businesses make customized marketing experiences for each individual through special offers, product recommendations, a customized feed on their pages… etc.

 

For example, a cosmetic retailer might use personalization to recommend products based on a customer’s purchase history, browsing history… etc. A customer who frequently buys beauty products would have recommendations for different options for skincare and make-up.


The purpose of personalization is to captivate the customers, making them feel valued, understood and related. It will build a stronger relationship between the business and the customer, thereby improving the overall results of success in the business.


Here are 10 ways Personalization can help boost your marketing success.


1. Improved Customer Satisfaction and Loyalty

Customers are satisfied when they receive personalized experiences. Personalization is a way the business communicates with its customers, showing them that they are heard, valued and understood. It establishes a relationship that is strengthened over time, the customers will give their loyalty to the brand and remain in business with them.


When a customer is loyal, they are likely to recommend the business to families, and friends and even share their experience on social media. Proper satisfaction from personalized experience will have them itching to share that wonderful experience with someone else.


Personalization increases customer loyalty and satisfaction and in return, customers remain loyal and even bring in more customers.


2.  Focus on the Target audience

Personalization narrows down who you should be targeting to patronise your business. They give relevant experiences to customers who may need your product.


This is done through the use of data like demographic information and personal interest about the customers, thereby customizing the experience for each customer whose interests may differ.


For example, a customer who has shown previous interest in gaming consoles will get email notifications, with prices on the latest gaming consoles, and another who has an interest in cosmetics will get email notifications on makeup and skincare.


With the focus being on the target audience, there will be an increase in customer experience with the business and will eventually improve engagement.


3.  Uniqueness from Competition

Personalization can help keep your business unique, differentiating it from other businesses and giving your business an advantage over the competition. By rendering an experience designed for each customer, the business is more enjoyable and each customer would have their own unique opinions on your business based on that personalization, in that case, your business will likely be preferred over others that do not have that advantage.


Overall, personalization will help your business to have leverage over other competition. It will keep the business updated with the needs and demands of customers as the days go by. This sets your business apart from others in the market.


4.  Increased rate of Engagement

Personalized marketing campaigns are equally beneficial. When customers receive content that is customized for them, they are likely to engage with the business. Especially on social media, it makes them more comfortable to engage by commenting, sharing and making inquiries, therefore increasing engagement.


5.  Customer’s Perspective

Personalization in digital marketing can provide businesses with an insight into the perspective of their customers, allowing them to view the market from their point of view. They do this by tracking their behaviours and preferences, gaining an understanding of their customers from the information they have gathered and using this information to create better campaigns and content for each customer. This will also lead to the improvement of the Return on Investment (ROI)


6.  Increase ROI on Advertising

Customers are not interested in generic ads that are impersonal to them. Research shows that shoppers only give attention and positive reactions to marketing when they show ads that display what resonates with them.


In other words, to captivate the attention of your customers, personalization is the best strategy to achieve that. When customers see campaigns and advertisements on things they want, they will want to spend more, this will increase sales and increase the ROI rate of your business.


7.  Interaction With Customers

Personalization allows customers to voice out their ideas and reviews on the product. Because they feel heard and understood they take their time to give feedback and reviews on the product.


Businesses may take those reviews and feedback into consideration, using them to generate ideas to upgrade the customer's experience and even the products. This will further help the business to expand its growth potential.


8.  Boosts Conversion Rate

Personalization helps to boost conversion rates by showing the customers what they are more likely to buy. For example, if a customer recently bought a laptop, you could recommend a laptop case a microphone or a mouse to go with the laptop they have bought. In this case, it might subconsciously come to the mind of the customer to produce those products along with it, therefore increasing sales.


9.  Save Cost

Personalization is much more cost-effective rather than using impersonalized traditional market strategies. Personalization allows businesses to specifically target their audience who are interested and willing to make purchases. This makes the investment worth it.


10. Tracking sales

With personalization, you can track the sales of customers as well as the frequency of their purchases. An increase in repeated purchases from customers will let you know you are on the right track with your personalization. It is encouraging to see when your Personalization efforts resonate with your customers' needs, it will further strengthen the relationship between customers and the business and push the business to work harder in maintaining that relationship.


For any business to grow, you will need to secure the relationship you have with your customers and the best way to go about this is through personalization. Personalization opens many doors for success in increased sales and customer experience. It is a technique worth investing in as it benefits both the market and its customers.
