OpenText, designing communications spanning the Customer’s Lifetime

The customer evolves with time. At 24 he or she might dream of owning an expensive gadget or going on a solo trip to the Falkland islands, but as they age, their desires will change - child's education, mortgage, pension plans will take prominence over owning an expensive gadget or going on a dream vacation. Change after all is the only constant, and the customer is no different. Also, in time their expectations from organizations or businesses serving them - banks, insurers, retailers, realtors, etc., will also change. And brand loyalty will be severely tested, if these organizations do not capitalize on their customer's hopes and aspirations by sending them relevant/personalized and timely messages - such as a special discount or offer on their birthday or anniversary. A part of the Customer Communication Management strategy for organizations, personalized messages such as these are extremely important in the digital age for providing a delightful customer experience. No longer considered a low hanging fruit, these are an essential ingredient of customer communication and engagement.

In order to enable personalized communication, the CCM solution should be such that it ensures the following:

  • Enables non-technical personnel to create and update content without the help of IT professionals
  • Has readymade features that can direct when and how the content is to be disseminated
  • Has the ability to respond to the changing customer expectations in real time
