Today, the average shopper has become immune to the bombardment of mass-produced coupons and offers. As a result, 59% of promotions globally don’t break even (Nielsen, 2016) – with retailers wasting billions on the wrong consumers, substitute offers, and exaggerated discounts.
Today’s consumers prefer streamlined, “me-focused” lifestyles over cluttered and spam-filled inboxes. The time has come for retailers to evolve the methods by which they truly connect with each individual customer again. Because 67% of customers have already switched vendors for a more consumer-like experience (SalesForce, 2018).
