Transcript

In this video, we’ll give you an overview of Adobe Experience Platform, explaining what it is, and the business challenges it solves. Today’s digital landscape is changing at a rapid pace, with rising customer expectations when it comes to personalized experiences, and continued shifts in industry policies and regulations, like the deprecation of third-party cookies. As a result, there is an increasing need for brands to reimagine their digital marketing strategy and accelerate their transformation efforts, specifically around personalization. But how do you deliver a personalized experience at scale for millions of customers? Well, to start, you need to collect data from every interaction a customer makes with your brand. But with third-party cookies becoming more restrictive and browsers blocking cookies by default, this is easier said than done. Additionally, the list of must-haves to create personal experiences continues to grow. Over the years, Adobe has worked with brand partners to identify some of the critical requirements to overcome these customer experience challenges. This includes the ability to deliver consistent personalization across journeys at scale. Now you’re probably thinking this is a ton of requirements just to manage customer experiences. And you’re not wrong. However, the benefits brands gain by implementing personalized insights and engagement at scale speak for themselves. According to a Forrester study, brands who implement personalization at scale can expect to see compelling increases in email open rates, customer lifetime value, employee satisfaction, customer retention and satisfaction rates, and repeat visitors.
