We’re pleased to announce that the latest update to the BlueVenn Customer Data Platform and marketing automation tools will be live from June 30, 2017, and contains a number of interesting new features.

There are some very exciting developments so I thought I'd take the time to write down some of these new features and enhancements:

Bristol, UK & Boston, MA – June 29, 2017 :: Leading Martech providers BlueVenn and Adestra have announced today that they have formed an alliance to combine the Single Customer View, analytics and segmentation capabilities of the BlueVenn Customer analytics and real-time customer journey automation platform with Adestra’s email marketing solution.

Part of constructing effective marketing communications is being able to adapt, and marketers have to be ready to change their approach when old strategies start to look obsolete. With the introduction of new technologies, cultural shifts, and the evolution of customer expectations, the digital age never pauses.

The most obvious and monumental change is the shift away from the Age of the Seller towards the Age of the Customer.

Is there any difference between Single Customer View and the Golden Customer Record? If you spend some time reading up on the pair, you might not think so. In recent years, the two terms have been used somewhat interchangeably, yet I’d argue that today there is a definite distinction.

The Golden Record is just what it sounds like: a holy grail, a gold standard. It’s what all data-driven marketers should aspire to: a clean, organized, comprehensive record of their customers, purged of inconsistencies and inaccuracies. Easier said than done.

Personalization is everywhere. It’s in our Facebook feeds, on our Netflix queues, and increasingly, in our shopping experiences. Ever since retail giants such as Amazon proved the value of personalization online, smaller retailers have been searching for ways to adopt the practice into their own businesses on a smaller scale. Unfortunately, while most retailers have good intentions when it comes to personalization, few have been able to incorporate the trend in a way that maximizes its full potential.

In our recent Customer Journey Optimization webinar, we introduced the fact that the role of the marketer has evolved so much through social media that they can now be considered as a participant or spectator – rather than the guardian of their brand. 

Unlike marketing conducted via a company blog or campaign, social media marketing does not exist solely on the vendor’s turf. It can be publicly responded to and repurposed, with whatever content has been created now subject to the whims of all of those who may encounter it. By the time you read this, #covfefe will be a distant memory, but it was a meme that burned insanely bright across social media for all of, what, 12 hours?
