  1. 1:1 Interaction :: Personalized URL Strategy Guide
  2. 1:1 Interactions: Personalized URL Strategy Guide
    You’ve already heard the story
    Personalized URLs Work.
    • Some analysts cite research that “relevant campaigns generate, on average, 300% better response than those that are simply personalized”.
    • Personalized URL providers claim they consistently get above 30% increase in ROI for their clients’ one to one marketing campaigns.
    • It‘s becoming a trend. According to the DMA’s integrated marketing media mix report, marketers are complementing digital media with email (79.1%) and direct mail (75.4%).
    But…
    There are lies, damn lies,
    and statistics.
  3. 1:1 Interactions: Personalized URL Strategy Guide
    The other side of the story
    It’s not made-to-order magic.
    Personalized URLs are not a made-to-order magic trick you can buy from the store and immediately get results for your business.
    Like all marketing tools you use personalized URLs require you to:
    • think about a strategy for reaching your different customer segments
    • plan on integrating your ‘magic’ personalized URLs with current media
    • make a conscious effort to follow through on each message you send
    The epitome of 1:1 marketing success are the two-way conversations you have with your customers.
  4. 1:1 Interactions: Personalized URL Strategy Guide
    Why Personalized URLs?
    Personalized URLs integrate marketing campaigns.
    Personalized URLs serve as the central ‘hub’ for your marketing messages. They support and reinforce your messages across these other channels:
    • Email to Personalized URL
    • Direct mail to Personalized URL
    • Pay-per-click to Personalized URL
    • Corporate website to Personalized URL
    • Radio/TV ad to Personalized URL
    • Print ad to Personalized URL
    • Social media to Personalized URL
    Personalized URLs serve as
    the ‘core’ of your
    marketing messages.
  5. 1:1 Interactions: Personalized URL Strategy Guide
    Benefits of using Personalized URLs
    #1 Tracking for follow-up
    Take this common scenario:
    You have a list of 150,000 customers/ potential customers. You plan to market to them via a personalized email.
    How can Personalized URLs help?
    Track who responded (who opened, visited their URL, submitted a response, clicked a link, downloaded a document…)
    Focus subsequent messages and marketing spend only on those that are most responsive (Lead scoring)
    Use forms and surveys to get a better understanding of each person.
    Tracking responses down
    to the individual

    Benefits of using Personalized URLs
    #2 Personalized URLs are interactive
    • Personalized URLs allow you to make your campaigns interactive.
    • An email message (by itself) allow you to broadcast your message.
    • Emails + Personalized URLs enhances customer value.
    Tip: Use surveys, build applications, customized PDF documents, provide videos, podcasts and personalization to initiate two-way communication with your customers.
    "Providing value that improves the customer experience is key to sales growth"
    Research and Market's '2009 Trends to Watch: Retail Technology' report.
    Tip for surveys:
    Very rarely do you need a long survey while prospecting. Instead keep the questions to a minimum but include leading questions that you can use for subsequent follow-up marketing messages.

    #4 Personalized and Targeted
    Tip: Use personalized marketing to cater to the recipient’s ego.
    “My name is on the URL, it must be customized specifically for me”
    This novelty will help you improve click-through rates, targeted content will then help you improve conversion rates.
    Relevance is key! Use the right images, remember previous responses and write content that says, ‘I care about what you do’.

    #5 Personalized URLs can be viral
    Sometimes the best way to get a referral is to ask for one.
    Create value or an interesting customer experience and use refer-a-friend type applications for your marketing.
    Some best practices:
    Include the referrer’s name in the email. ‘Katie Jones referred you…’
    Generate a separate Personalized URL for the new prospect.
    Let the referrer know when his friends respond.
