Marketer Tips for Success

Messages
Personalize based on consumer propensity to buy. In-Market segments need immediate call-to-action; Out-of-Market segments require awareness and education before committing to a purchase.

Moments
Deliver messages catering to in-the-moment needs & passions based on context & behavior signals (on what consumers read, listen, watch and share).

Milestones
Measure success through key milestones along the journey by polling, share-of-consumer attention, visits (website or in-store), sales, and basket size (average-order-value).
