The Business Impact of the Power of 1
1:1 personalized experiences will become the primary way you communicate with your prospects and customers. Why?
- In the Pre-Internet era, business-to-customer interaction wasn’t particularly efficient but relationships were generally strong.
- The Internet brought efficiencies desired by both parties, lowering costs for the business and increasing speed for the customer, but it did so at a high cost to the relationship.
The next era is upon us. Now, because of the combination of in-depth data and real-time cross-channel 1:1 personalization that Evergage provides, businesses and their prospects/customers can have deep relationships that are still efficient. That changes everything. That’s The Power of 1.
Karl will explore the implications of The Power of 1 for our clients, from how to design digital experiences to how to re-think today’s business model. James Rhee, private equity e-commerce industry investor and CEO of Ashley Stewart, will join Karl in a conversation about the real-world business impact of The Power of One.
Karl Wirth, Co-Founder & CEO
