Only 25% of companies use real time personalization
Marketers are moving away from traditional ways of campaigning – as much as 88% of marketers are increasingly using omnichannel strategies. In addition, most marketers are increasingly focusing on tracking the customer’s journey, through websites, social media channels or e-mail.
According to Merkle’s research, only 25% of respondents focus on real-time personalization tactics – the remaining 75% still rely on pre-defined personalization or “half measures”. Researchers note that for companies providing personalization tools, this is a field for further development.
