Announcing the last word information to omnichannel

Today’s customers regularly switch between channels and devices when interacting with a brand. They can click an email on their phone, switch to their laptop to do more research, and shop at the store – and expect it to go smoothly. The catch is that most organizations struggle to consolidate data from these various interactions, which can result in a fragmented (and often non-personalized) customer experience.

While the customer experience is a major differentiator for brands today, a bad experience can undermine customer loyalty. To the 45% of consumers today, all it takes is an impersonal experience to discredit a brand. For this reason, companies are currently facing a difficult dilemma: How can they provide real-time personalization while adding additional channels to the customer journey?

The solution? An omnichannel strategy.

Dip your toes in omnichannel

Many companies are unsure how to get started with an omnichannel communication strategy and shy away from it. Fortunately, it’s not as complicated at first as it seems – especially if you have the right technology in place.

Instead of going from 0 to 100 with omnichannel, we recommend starting small and scaling to meet your business needs and use cases. For growing businesses, we recommend starting with a channel such as E-mail. Aside from being one of the most reliable ways to reach your customers, email is a great way to identify key customer behavior, segment your audience to provide more targeted content and send it promptly personalized offers.

Once you collect a wealth of customer information and your Email strategy, you can consider adding more channels to improve your customer experience. Fortunately, Twilio makes it easy to add incrementally SMS, Video, Chat, and voice to create the ultimate integrated omnichannel experience.
