Are you struggling to grab customers’ attention in a crowded marketplace? We’ve outlined the best ways to boost customer engagement in our latest checklist. Here’s a sneak peek at five best practices for creating campaigns that make an impact and deliver the results every brand is looking for – increased conversions and improved engagement. 

1. Adopt first-party data as the foundation for your marketing efforts. First-party data includes data from owned channels such as past purchases, behavioral data from apps or websites, or loyalty program participation.  
2. Leverage the latest analytics capabilities. With advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI), you can understand the full customer lifecycle and detect individual behavioral cues to deliver the right message at the right moment — on the optimal channel. 
3. Select scalable and integrated tools to coordinate all marketing activities. Incorporate automation and integrate AdTech and MarTech systems across all your channels. This way, you are equipped to fully utilize the web, apps, email, social media, and SMS. 
4. Personalize content. With the right behavioral data being captured, there is potential to craft targeted and meaningful messages that are appropriate for each customers’ specific buying stage — and reach customers when they are most receptive.  
5. Invest in a MarTech stack that enables easy adoption of new capabilities. Elevate your engagement strategy with an advanced MarTech framework, like Acoustic Connect, that allows data aggregation from multiple data sources like AI and first-party data. Marketers can more efficiently identify the right data points to connect with each contact, segment audiences, and track and analyze performance across channels to ensure customers have a seamless path forward when they engage with the brand.
