The top 30 hyper-personalisation software providers
Following ever-growing adoption of artificial intelligence in ecommerce marketing, the distinction between personalisation and hyper-personalisation has become ever more important. Indeed, some might argue that the distinction is essential. Leading market research facilities around the world, including McKinsey , Forrester , Gartner, Bain , Statista , Forbes and many more, have all become advocates for early adoption of this technology due the enormous additional revenue it delivers, unequivocally.
Through this warts and all appraisal, as a provider of this service, reviewing ourselves and our peers on an equitable basis, brings to bear a specialist knowledge of the distinctions. It then becomes a candid overview in a specialist field, to enable CMOs to make a qualified and discerning decision of their preferred solution based on their own needs and preferences.
What is hyper-personalisation software?
First let’s define exactly what hyper-personalisation , sometimes called individualisation is. A customer-centric term, meaning “to be unique and absolute to the individual consumer“. ?Ron Shevlin ?at Forbes, proposes “It is a series of interactions that strengthens a customer’s emotional connection to a product or company,” in his recent article. Emphasis is on “a” customer, (an integer of one) not a segment – a section of people on a database, to which “a” customer belongs. i.e. All people who bought red wine in the last 30 days. If you read anywhere else it is something else, that someone is trying to gaslight you.
There is zero collusion of either the data or how it is used, to bias or sway application of it between individuals, despite some providers suggesting the edges can be a little bit more fuzzy, in order to bend the definition to suit their own purposes. One example being Amazon’s “remarketing” software first launched back in 2012, isn’t personalisation. It is what everyone else who bought that product also liked. Not a ringing endorsement of the uniqueness of the individual to whom it is addressing, unless you enjoy lemming culture.
The absolute opposite, and perhaps nemesis of hyper-personalisation is segmentation, the definition of which is division into separate parts or sections. That stalwart of email marketing for the last 20 years still has a place in certain echelons of FMCG marketing, because it offers opportunity to group together what are hopefully a cross-sections of a database that have similar interests.
