Shoppers today expect the same level of curation from retail brands that they’re getting from other digital experiences. Driving long-term ecommerce growth in this new digital environment requires retailers to shift their mindset of customer acquisition as a strategy, to simply the first step in a longer customer journey. This means taking a lifecycle marketing approach to communicating with shoppers by creating compelling moments as they discover, evaluate and buy across channels.
Bluecore’s AI-driven technology connects first-party shopper data with real-time product catalog data, to predict and execute on the exact experience an individual shopper should receive across owned and paid digital channels. The resulting personalized shopper communications turn one-and-done buyers into loyal customers that convert over and over again. According to the study, retailers working with Bluecore have increased the rate of one-time buyers to multi-time buyers by 22.5%, increased average order value (AOV) by 21%, and increased the number active of customers – those who’ve engaged with digital communication in the past 90 days – from 5 million to 7.3 million. And the study highlights that with Bluecore they’re doing so with less time and budget, moving 90% faster with marketing campaigns and seeing a 50% increase in digital budget efficiency.
