M7 Group Selects Ensighten's Omni-Channel Data Platform to Drive More Personalized Interactions Using a Single View of the Customer

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Jan 12, 2016) - Ensighten, the global leader in omni-channel data and tag management, today announced that M7 Group, one of Europe's fastest growing cross-regional pay-TV operators, has selected the company's omni-channel data platform to fundamentally change how it engages with its customers across Europe, as well as enhance opportunities for advertisers to provide more relevant messages.

The M7 Group, which operates satellite and IPTV platforms across Europe, will leverage Ensighten Manage, the leading enterprise tag management system (TMS), and Ensighten Activate, an omni-channel data collection and customer profile management solution that delivers a single view of the customer. M7 chose Ensighten for its true enterprise-class TMS capabilities, including enhanced data privacy and security capabilities, enterprise workflow management, and trusted reputation among major global brands.

Ensighten will help M7 move away from a third-party model to an in-house e-commerce model that is reliant on delivering more timely and relevant advertising and personalized content to customers across Europe. Ensighten gives M7 the mission-critical infrastructure for e-commerce it needs to seamlessly deploy any third-party technology, as well as unify disparate customer data sources, including marketing channels, CRM systems, mobile devices, boxes, and more. By creating a single unified view of the customer, M7 will be able to achieve its goal of driving highly personalized advertising in each country. The company will use additional attribution and analytics capabilities from Ensighten to help advertisers quantify and optimize campaign investments.

 "My vision is to make the delivery of television to our visitors and subscribers as relevant as possible," said Harold Groeneveld, Director of Online Sales at M7 Group. "This will become increasingly possible as more TV goes online - but only if we work with companies like Ensighten to harness the power of customer data in a way that is EU cookie and privacy compliant. The Ensighten platform offers us a way to better understand and support our subscribers today and in the future as we offer new services, taking into account all of the M7 Group properties and opportunities for growth."

M7 Group will be able to use the global Ensighten implementation to break open information silos and make it easier for marketing teams across Europe to work together based on common, centralized information. Using Ensighten, M7 expects to drive a 200 percent increase in marketing ROI within the next year, and to help pave the way for even more targeted advertising and content.

"We are excited to be serving as a catalyst for helping M7 transform its business model, and to help accelerate customer insight and growth across all Europe," said Ian Woolley, General Manager for EMEA at Ensighten. "Organizations like M7 are seeing the value of using a vendor like Ensighten as a single, go-to source of customer data to help drive smarter and more consistent customer interactions across all touch points. We are looking forward to partnering with M7 to help the company achieve its omni-channel goals and drive more business."
