Better channel targeting
You can use your retail data to optimise your marketing strategies, by identifying the most effective channels to reach and engage your customers. As mentioned, you’ll first need to collect data from all potential customer touch points, including website analytics and social media channels. From there, you can analyse the performance of each channel to identify which is the most effective at engaging different types of customers. You may evaluate the traffic and engagement of a particular channel, or return on investment (ROI) - the revenue generated when compared to the marketing costs of each channel.
Collecting and analysing your retail data across different touchpoints allows you to identify the most effective channel to target different customer segments. You can then personalise and optimise your marketing efforts to appeal to these different customer segments, wherever they are in their customer journey, and whatever channel they favour.

This not only ensures you prioritise the right channels for your customers but enhances the customer experience too.
As we hope you’ve come to realise, retail data analysis offers a variety of benefits that can help strengthen your customer relationships and enhance your marketing strategy.
