You have your email marketing determined, content evergreen and constantly updating, SEO done right, social media for customer loyalty, and visitors browsing and purchasing in your online store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there is always that little voice in your head wondering if you can do more. How else can you improve your customer experience?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How about setting up a <\/span><b>hyper personalized campaign<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">? <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"definition\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h2>\n            I. Personalization Service Definition    <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some time has passed since I dived into the theme and now I feel I\u2019ve got experience enough to share it with you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, for myself, I define our success by how successful our clients are and how our software and services help you achieve your business goals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See, I am sending you a personal message here. (That doesn\u2019t diminish the fact that I do care, I really do!)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the question is: is this strategy what they now call hyper personalisation? Let us sort it out, come join me here.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll peek a little bit into hyper personalization theory, look at what techniques can be used for creating personalized offers, and see some personalization examples. But first things first, let us start with hyper personalization definition. <\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"what-is\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h2>\n            II. What is Hyper Personalization?    <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Business2Community defines <a href=\"https:\/\/www.business2community.com\/marketing\/whats-hype-around-hyper-personalization-01045882\">hyper-personalization<\/a> as the use of data to provide more personalized and targeted products, services, and content.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That, to my mind, is too common a definition, because it doesn\u2019t explain what differs it from traditional personalization. But for the sake of explanation, it\u2019s just perfect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long story short, we use all the data that we possess for creating personalized content for each visitor individually. Ideally, hyper personalized marketing means you accompany your customer\u2019s journey all the way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this statement poses even more questions. Like, what data do we gather and how? Which data can be considered relevant? How do we deliver personalized content?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s address them one by one, shall we? <\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"relevant\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            1. What data is relevant for hyper personalization?    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, if you have ever made <a href=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/blog\/creating-your-buyer-personas.html\">research on your buyer personas,<\/a> you\u2019re halfway there already.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You know their demographics, location, interests, gender, age, career, if they are married or single, etc. All these points may not bring much value on their own, but given the smart attitude, can bring overwhelming results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here you should add their online behavior, on your website and outside it. Where do your clients come from?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don\u2019t mean where they live, although this info may also be used. I mean, how did they end up on your website?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From Google? By a direct link? From an email campaign? <\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"how-gather\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            2. How do I gather the customer data for hyper personalization?     <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Virtually at any source you can lay your hands on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Purchase history? Good. Google Analytics? Good! Enrichment data services? Goood!<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"gb-video__container\" role=\"presentation\">\n        <video  class=\"gb-video\" width=\"270\" height=\"225\" autoplay muted playsinline loop src=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/jam-good.mp4\" title=\"Friends\" aria-label=\"Friends\">\n            <source src=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/jam-good.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\" \/>\n            <p>It looks like your browser doesn&#8217;t support HTML5 video \ud83d\ude41 <br \/>Just in case, here is a link to the video: https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/jam-good.mp4<\/p>\n        <\/video>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The best part is, it doesn\u2019t even have to be a paid service. You can make use of virtually any piece of data that you have. The more the better. <\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"what-you-have\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            3. What data do you already have?    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For starters, you have your online store. What do you know about your customers from there?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How long it takes for them to convert. How much money they are ready to spend with you. How likely they are to come back as return clients. What products they prefer. What is the best season\/day of week\/time of day for your sales.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, if you have a search tool intelligent enough, you can analyse your clients\u2019 search statistics and from that, you\u2019ll know what else they might need.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, you can always ask your clients. Be it an onboarding personal call or a product\/services survey, they will potentially get you plenty of customer information to work with. <\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"enrichment-tools\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            4. What data enrichment tools can you use for hyper personalization?    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All that you can get a hold of is good and useful. That is, provided that they are already your clients or at least contacted you at some point.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what if you only have their email or name or company info? How much can you make from this piece of information?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the sake of example, let\u2019s say you have me browsing your website and at some point, I enter my email address, <a href=\"mailto:anastasiya.zhavoronkova@x-cart.com\">anastasiya.zhavoronkova@x-cart.com<\/a>. What can you learn from that? At least my full name and the company I\u2019m associated with, X-Cart.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, there are companies that provide data enrichment service. Basically, you enter a lead\u2019s email address and they provide you with the additional data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You enter my name and email in, say, Clearbit and get a whole lot of information, including what position I\u2019m at and if I\u2019m a decision maker for this company (which I\u2019m not, by the way \ud83d\ude42 ).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, some services can help track my behavior on your website and a bit of past actions in the web (the page I came from, for example), like Google Analytics or Mixpanel. They do more than just track my behavior, to be fair, but let\u2019s focus on tracking first.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us say, I landed on your homepage from the Google search page, then proceeded to the About Us page, and finally on to pricing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What can that tell you? Can I be qualified as a lead? Okay, maybe I\u2019m just doing research but you can predict with a certain share of confidence that I may be interested in buying from you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also good if you can integrate this service with your existing digital marketing strategy. This way, you don\u2019t have to manually look up every lead and think of how you may interest them. Ideally, the enriched data is forwarded in the right direction based on the set of parameters. <\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"relevant\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            5. Is all data equally useful for hyper personalized experience?    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No way!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fifteen, even ten years ago, hyper personalization was unheard of. But within the last few years, machine learning has become so natural that it\u2019s now used widely.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The majority of services use neural networks to gather data across the internet. They typically provide you with plenty of data of all kinds. Such kind of data gathering is called big data and is very popular these days.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deep learning, as opposed to big data, is intended to get you the valuable data. Provided that the majority of your visitors don\u2019t spend much time on your website, you have to have behavioral and real time analysing arranged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This way, big data processing takes much more time, so we can say it with a good share of certainty. Deep learning and hyper personalization should go hand in hand if your marketing team aims at the high level of personalization. <\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"examples\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h2>\n            III. Examples of Successful Hyper Personalized Campaigns    <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I can go on and on about the importance of gathering data and using it for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/blog\/user-experience-design.html\">good customer experience<\/a>. Or even bore you with the endless theory. I won\u2019t.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do believe that the best way to explain exactly how to use a marketing strategy is through an example.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I surfed through some popular online stores and gathered 3 examples of their personalization lines. <br><\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"airbnb\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airbnb.com\" target=\"_blank\">Airbnb<\/a>    <\/h3>\n\n\n    <div class=\"gb-img__figure-container\">\n        <figure class=\"gb-img__figure\">\n                                                                <div class=\"gb-img__figure-btn\" data-featherlight=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-raw.jpg\">\n                                            <picture><source  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-p500.jpg 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-p760.jpg 2x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-p1140.jpg 3x\" type=\"image\/jpg\" media=\"(max-width: 420px)\" \/><source  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-p950.webp 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb.webp 2x\" type=\"image\/webp\" media=\"(min-width: 421px)\" \/><source  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-p950.jpg 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb.jpg 2x\" type=\"image\/jpg\" media=\"(min-width: 421px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1431\" height=\"655\" src=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-p950.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb-p950.jpg 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23320\/airbnb.jpg 2x\" alt=\"Airbnb\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/picture>                                                <\/div>\n                                                <\/figure>\n    <\/div>\n                            <link  rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/miniflat\/build\/css\/lib\/featherlight-1.7.13.css?var=1640604438\" \/>        <link  rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/miniflat\/build\/css\/elements\/post\/gallery.css?var=1643273158\" \/>    \n\n\n<p>I never had to use Airbnb before, so my experience on the website corresponds to that of a newbie. So what was the first thing I noticed on Airbnb? It knew my location at once!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I got the website transformed right there for me: it switched to my language, my currency, it even knew my city!&nbsp;<br>(I did agree to the cookie policy first thing when I landed on the website, so all is good there with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/blog\/gdpr.html\">GDPR policy<\/a>.) <\/p>\n\n\n<h4>\n            Host a Home    <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Proceeding to Host a Home experience, I got a form pre-filled for me. That was not necessary at all, considering the form consists of dropdowns that are easy to fill.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This way, it saved me what, 30 seconds? But this is undoubtedly a pleasant personal touch that I am sure to remember whenever I come back. Not to speak of other similar services lacking such personalization experiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The site also provides a FAQ and offers to read a few blog posts on how to start hosting people in your house. I am sure this is because I am an unregistered newcomer. For \u2018ole but gold\u2019 hosts, there are other handy materials available right there, I am positive about it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h4>\n            Host an Experience    <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In case you have a hobby and you would like to share it with people, or you are ready to plan and organize a tour around your hometown, you can offer it on Airbnb, too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To proceed, you only have to answer a few simple questions (in the form of tapping a radio button).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What impressed me is that they gave a few simple examples of what they consider an experience worth offering and what is not \u2014 before proceeding with the application form.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, that personal attitude, showing they care enough not to waste your time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine what you\u2019d feel if you fill in all the necessary forms just to learn that your offer does not qualify as an Airbnb experience. <\/p>\n\n\n<h4>\n            Book a Place    <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This is actually what the majority of their visitors come for. So the \u2018find a place\u2019 form is the first thing you see when you land. Clever, huh?<\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"aliexpress\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            2. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aliexpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">AliExpress<\/a>    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I realize <a href=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/blog\/author\/anastasia\">too many of my posts<\/a> mention AliExpress but look how smart they are about their marketing campaigns!&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are probably one of the pioneers in hyper personalization. <br><\/p>\n\n\n<h4>\n            Personal recommendations    <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you remember a time when you were not shown recommendations based on your past orders or search history?

I guess this is no news and we all know that for sure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But AliExpress marketers actually use this knowledge to interact with their customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Browsing for a specific product, you can ask a question and people who have ordered it can share their experience. Anytime a question is posted, the users who already have it, receive an email notification prompting them to share their experience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How do AliExpress people benefit from it, you may ask. First of all, they gain loyal customers and involve them in social shopping.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, this is the most surefire way to show that people are interested in the product, hence, increase the chance it\u2019s sold.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"reebok\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h3>\n            3. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reebok.com\/us\" target=\"_blank\">Reebok<\/a>    <\/h3>\n\n\n    <div class=\"gb-img__figure-container\">\n        <figure class=\"gb-img__figure\">\n                                                                <div class=\"gb-img__figure-btn\" data-featherlight=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-raw.jpg\">\n                                            <picture><source  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p500.webp 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p760.webp 2x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok.webp 3x\" type=\"image\/webp\" media=\"(max-width: 420px)\" \/><source  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p500.jpg 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p760.jpg 2x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p1140.jpg 3x\" type=\"image\/jpg\" media=\"(max-width: 420px)\" \/><source  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p950.jpg 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok.jpg 2x\" type=\"image\/jpg\" media=\"(min-width: 421px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1428\" height=\"642\" src=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p950.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok-p950.jpg 1x, https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/img\/23322\/reebok.jpg 2x\" alt=\"Reebok hyper personalization\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/picture>                                                <\/div>\n                                                <\/figure>\n    <\/div>\n                            <link  rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/miniflat\/build\/css\/lib\/featherlight-1.7.13.css?var=1640604438\" \/>        <link  rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/miniflat\/build\/css\/elements\/post\/gallery.css?var=1643273158\" \/>    \n\n\n<p>As I wrote previously, Reebok already rock at <a href=\"https:\/\/appinstitute.com\/omnichannel-marketing-examples\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">omni-channel marketing<\/a>, which makes them a star.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now to their personalization level.<\/p>\n\n\n<h4>\n            Email personalization examples    <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A few weeks back, I was looking for a pair of sneakers.

In case you need some inspiration, here are my insights:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"ol-numbers wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Try and learn your target audience<\/strong> as well as you can. This doesn\u2019t just mean collecting their emails or other useful data, but their personal interests, too. The better you know your audience, the better you can show them your personal attitude. As a side effect, you\u2019ll adjust your marketing funnel and create a thorough customer journey map. <\/li><li><strong>Lead enrichment allows for precise targeting<\/strong>, and deep learning allows for precise enrichment.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Never neglect lead scoring<\/strong> \u2014 this will save your customer care team time and effort and point them in the right direction. <\/li><li><strong>It\u2019s good if you can set up automatic lead routing<\/strong>. This way, the hottest leads get straight to the salesman working with them. <\/li><li><strong>A smart happy customer detection system allows to determine your brand advocates<\/strong> and invite them to take part in loyalty or affiliate programs.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>People love chatbots<\/strong>, which rather came as a surprise to me. The technologies today allow for very human-like chatbots that can be used instead of forms.&nbsp;<br>All in all, people still need to fill in the info, only with a chatbot the interactive component makes it seem easier and more personal. Plus, you can set up various survey logic depending on the answers a person chooses. <\/li><li><strong>Contextual journeys can increase your conversion rates <\/strong>dramatically though they are quite complex in setting up. <br>You can dynamically change the content on the website based on the actions a visitor takes. This way, a visitor sees the relevant content right away. Get this \u2014 you build a personal funnel for each and every one of your visitors.<\/li><li><strong>Consider using messengers to interact with your customers<\/strong>. They are a really powerful tool for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.x-cart.com\/blog\/customer-retention-strategies.html\">customer retention<\/a>. They are mobile, direct, plus you can set up in-app push notifications. Companies who use messengers instead of sending out emails actually saw a 10x increase in opens! <\/li><li>Automations are good and personal, but a human-to-human conversations can work magic. <strong>Onboard your customers after they\u2019ve placed an order<\/strong>. I don\u2019t just mean ask them if they liked your product. Consider offering them your advice as an expert in the field, too. <\/li><li>Gathering product reviews <strong>consider asking your clients to help out other people<\/strong> instead of giving you a 5-star rating on reviewer websites. Re-engage them by asking for their opinion, for their story of how they use your products. <\/li><li><strong>Never reject negative reviews<\/strong>, value them even more than the excellent ones. They give you a clue of what your customers wait for, this is how you know where to develop.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"bottomline\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h2>\n            V.

And it does.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But then, is it worth the effort? It surely is, if customer satisfaction is what you go for in your digital marketing strategy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, there are <a href=\"https:\/\/market.x-cart.com\/addons\/criteo.html\">general automation software companies<\/a>, like Criteo,&nbsp; that specialize in bringing all your tools altogether in one admin panel, cross-integrate all your business process, which makes building the hyper personalization logic so much easier.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Which hyper-personalization tools do you use? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You are here probably because you are in search of new ways of improving your marketing strategy.
