Maximizing Holiday Opportunities with Position-less Marketing

To do so, marketing organizations must implement Position-less Marketing. Position-less Marketing empowers all marketing team members with these capabilities:
- Data Power to instantly identify customer segments for precise targeting and hyper-personalization — without depending on a data expert
- Creative Power to generate messaging assets on the spot for any channel — without waiting for the design or copy team
- Optimization Power that power campaigns optimize themselves through AI-mapped journeys and automated “A/B/n testing” — without waiting for an analyst
Position-less Marketers are empowered to ensure each customer interaction is both timely and relevant.
“Black Friday and Cyber Monday continue to be invaluable opportunities for brands to engage new and existing customers at scale,” said Pini Yakuel, CEO at Optimove. “This Optimove Insight’s analysis shows that with data-driven segmentation and personalized offers, brands can drive significant gains in customer acquisition, loyalty and optimize lifetime value.”
