Use case: Deliver Personalized Customer Experiences
Customers are placing increasing pressure on manufacturers, B2B product companies, and wholesalers to provide B2C-level digital experiences. They’ve become used to quick and efficient processes that leverage all their data for a smooth customer journey. In their daily lives, they have learned to love interacting with companies through portals, apps, chat, mobile and other channels. Interactions happen in the context of their own data – from logging a return request against a recent order to reordering the purchase of two months ago with a single click.. On the flipside, old-fashioned non-digital experiences diminish customer loyalty. As your competitors start to provide personalised experiences, customers are gradually taking their business elsewhere.
You may recognize any of these situations in your current way of working:
- Asking your customer for their information during interactions, which puts you one-down in making them feel valued and decreases the efficiency of your team.
- Providing generic pricing in a stand-alone webshop because you are unable to use the customer-specific pricing you agreed on, resulting in order errors and calls to customer service.
- Relying on expensive sales reps to sell to smaller customers due to an inability to segment your customers accurately. The lack of data and technology to differentiate how you service your customer segments is holding you back and inhibiting scalability.
- Missing out on marketing, cross- & upsell opportunities because these tasks are mostly handled manually by Sales reps, resulting in inconsistent and impersonal interactions with your customers.
Time to elevate your customer and team experience
To combat these issues, manufacturers, B2B product companies and wholesalers adopt customer platforms that bring customer data together and provide automation and personalization at any point in the customer journey. This goes far beyond putting a first- and last name in an email and calling it personalization. This approach works across acquisition, cross- & upsell and retention scenarios. You’ll be able to recognize your customer through any channel (on & offline), tailor and automate customer interactions and survey your customers leveraging the data you have available.
Specific examples include:
- Omnichannel customer identification
- Consistent and automated customer onboarding
- Automated customer webshop activation
- Ongoing and consistent lead nurturing
- Online retargeting
The Result
- Your Customer gets a consistent and personal digital experience tailored to their needs;
- Your team is empowered to focus on the high value customer interactions and less on administrative tasks;
- You start to build up valuable data that provides great insights and the input to continuously improve;
