Why most personalization efforts fail

If you’ve been in the marketing space for a while, you’ve heard the buzz of personalization everywhere.
“Drive one-to-one customer experiences.”
“Target the right customer with the right message at the right time.”
“Mass marketing is over. It’s all about targeting individuals with specific and tailored message.”
Great. All of these things sound awesome in theory, but in reality, the people spouting these things on stages and in blog posts are rarely the ones tasked with executing personalization at scale, and neither are they responsible for reporting the results.
Personalization – whether you’re just starting with some basic rule-based logic or you’re running mass-scale predictive targeting – isn’t an easy thing to do. But when done right, it’s the highest ROI optimization activity you can perform.
