Innovative offering helps retailers provide a more engaging shopping experience by delivering the most relevant campaigns (promotions, local deals, loyalty bonus offers) to target customer segments
San Francisco, CA – April 4, 2012 –– RichRelevance®, the leading provider of dynamic personalization for the world’s largest retailers and brands, today launched RichPromo to provide state-of-the-art dynamic content targeting for retailers. The newest addition to the company’s integrated personalization suite, RichPromo, combines real-time consumer behavior analysis with a retailer’s existing customer segments to deliver the most relevant, appealing campaign content to online shoppers. Now, retailers can optimize their valuable web real- estate for overall engagement, revenue and conversions, while delivering a highly personalized and engaging shopping experience that respects consumers’ real-time behavior and past history with the brand.
“We have architected our personalization platform to enable retailers to efficiently maximize every pixel in concert with delivering a high touch customer experience in the online environment,” said David Selinger, CEO of RichRelevance. “With a single integration, retailers can now harness the power of our proven personalization suite and this campaign management targeting tool to dynamically reach consumers in a way that respects their brand and their shoppers’ experience.”
