Delivering personalized content is consistently front-of-mind for email marketers, yet our research has once again demonstrated that this must-have performance indicator is proving elusive in reality. As marketers across multiple industries work to regrow and maintain a clean, loyal database post-GDPR, the need for a strong personalization strategy has never been greater.

The steps you should consider …
• Audit your acquisition touchpoints
Do you have mechanisms in place for all of your touchpoints? Are they as
efficient and effective as they should be ?
• Set Targets
Make sure that you have realistic expectations and make sure that you are
aware of how much an email address is worth to your business.
Consider the value exchange
Think about what the customer is receiving for giving up their personal data.
• Trigger a welcome email
Receiving a welcome email is now a customer expectation.

Key Takeaways
• Personalization is a key pillar of First- Person marketing as if done correctly it
can deliver great results.
• Data is still one of the main impediments, but there are steps you can take. Start
by looking at the current state of your database and your main touchpoints.
• The martech landscape is growing and all of your systems must constantly be
communicating. Use all of the information you gather from across all planforms.
• Ensure your communication is cohesive across all channels as that is how you
get results.
