Most marketers would agree that technology has made their life easier (or has it!). With the birth of the digital era, the role of a CMO and the responsibilities of digital marketers have changed drastically.

The oodles of digital marketing techniques used in an organization lay the red carpet for efficiency, cost savings and streamlined business processes. However, there seems to be an uninvited guest that surreptitiously enters the corporate premises through the marketing landscape– the digital clutter!

The real challenge for a marketer today is to be able to swim through the multiple digital channels, combat redundancies, dig up information silos, garner value and ultimately create the perfect 360-degree view of a customer…phew! Now that sounds like a task.

Creating Experiences And Influencing The Loyalty Loop

A successful marketer creates optimized customer experiences at every point in the customer lifecycle which is again powered by a comprehensive view of the customer. The research giant McKinsey points out the importance of influencing customers beyond the purchase phase for it is the post-purchase experience that strongly influences customer loyalty. The fact that 65% of a company’s revenue comes from existing customers (against the 35% that comes from capturing new customers) further pushes the significance of nurturing the loyalty loop.

Every customer undergoes these phases while they associate themselves with any particular brand.

In today’s digital era, the consideration phase as well as post purchase phase (that has the highest impact on the loyalty of customers) is made easier through a number of tools like social media, email marketing, mobile apps, blogs and other content sources, discovery platforms, affinity groups and so on. The key enabler that brings life into these channels by integrating them onto one single platform is the Sitecore solution
