Your database is one of the most important assets of your organization and your brand.
Enriching the information of your leads, users and audience in general, allows you to generate a complete picture in decision making than what a raw excel database can offer you.
There are many benefits after all this, starting from the creation of your Customer Data Platform to the advanced optimization of your precision marketing campaigns through Dynamic Creative Optimization (DCO) solutions.
Data Enrichment is the process of combining and adding 1st party data or 3rd party data to a base that is already being built. This can be anything from a simple CRM that is already operating to your own excel database.
Why is Data Enrichment so important?
- Data enrichment improves your database accuracy
Having an unstructured database with little information about each user is not effective enough to create a digital marketing strategy with impactful results. Data enrichment plays a crucial role in converting that raw data into a “live” platform that is the starting point for Smart Data Management. This applies to smaller companies, up to and including those that handle large volumes of data.
With this first step, companies collect data that is valuable for decision making and campaign creation. This brings security and credibility to the data visualization by being more accurate.
2. You evolve customer segmentation and profiling
Once you have this accurate, complete and updated data, brands can customize the content by user profile in each of their marketing campaigns, making them more effective and optimizing their budget. That is, you can directly impact a potential consumer who was interacting in your ecommerce with certain products, to a user who has just had a first approach with your brand in the digital environment.
With Data Enrichment you can segment your database to channel certain ads and communication more relevant to specific users who have specific interests and/or are at a different point in the journey.
This is the first step, a Future proof company. Building your audiences becomes the area’s most valuable asset. Generating an increase in conversions for digital campaigns, which impacts the ROI of all your sales efforts.
3. Improve your customers’ experience
Data Enrichment also allows your brand to be relevant to your different audiences. By personalizing a communication and content at each stage of the conversion funnel that is tailored to their searches and profiles. When this experience is personalized for each user profile, it strengthens the brand’s relationship with your customers as they feel that you truly understand their needs and adapt down to the tone and channel where they are contacted.
