Customer Centricity

The investment business case...
Database is 50,000
If you were to send non targeted emails. Revenue from email =
£1.4m (£28 on average per customer)
However if for 15000 you were able to deliver deeper targeted
messages. Your new revenue would be:-
25000 @ £42 per customer = £1m
25000 @ £28 per customer = £700k
New revenue from email = £1.7m (an extra £300k)
The cost - s/w & services - £50,000
That’s 6 times ROI!

Be Useful...
Apart from product recommendations… there are ways in which
personalisation can deliver useful messages for the consumer
1. Post purchase receipts - easy to access
2. Post purchase content - about the
product you’ve bought
1. Replenishment and renewal

Be Trustworthy...
84% consumers want to be treated as a person … and not a number.

The language of love...

eventually gravitate to the least demanding course of
action...laziness is built deep into our nature”
Daniel Kahneman
