Marketers from small to global organizations are on the forefront, leveraging generative AI to create campaigns that deliver hyper-personalized experiences for their customers. One example of a successful implementation was featured at the Oct 16, 2024 Sitecore Symposium. &#8220;As part of our long-standing, strategic relationship with Sitecore, we&#8217;ve collaborated closely with Nestl\u00e9 and other enterprise customers to deliver entirely new AI capabilities to marketers,&#8221; said Shelley Bransten, Corporate Vice President, Global Industry Solutions at Microsoft.<sup>1<\/sup> The rewards are clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what if your organization is currently still in pilot mode? The challenge with pilots is that they don\u2019t drive consequential change in the bottom line, and it\u2019s a struggle to democratize learnings.

Marketers are leading the way in leveraging AI as a powerful co-creator at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s evaluate age-old challenges and lengthy processes for marketers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, identify key areas where AI creates significant impact in a 6 to 18 month period:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Increased investment in a multitude of omnichannel marketing solutions and partners <\/strong>has led to fragmented customer profiles and data. Siloed analytics, reports, and data make it difficult to create a unified view of the customers, hindering segmentation efforts to personalize each interaction with customers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Isolated business analysis tools<\/strong> and cross-media performance and recommendation data across partners and platforms make it difficult to develop real-time or predictive media planning strategies. Marketers struggle optimizing spending and maximizing return on ad spend (ROAS).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Convoluted naming conventions, metadata tagging, and static reporting<\/strong> from disconnected create \u201ctech debt.\u201d This debt makes it difficult to spot patterns in data such as best keywords, segments, content, and channels.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"powerful-personalization-at-scale-with-ai\">Powerful personalization at scale with AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-can-ai-create-more-personalized-touchpoints-across-a-shopper-journey\">How can AI create more personalized touchpoints across a shopper journey?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Common \u201cpersonalization\u201d mishaps that decrease loyalty:<\/strong> A customer browses running shoes online but buys a pair in-store, later they receive a generic email offering discounts on the shoes they just purchased and unrelated accessories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The future process of personalization accelerated with AI: <\/strong>The customers\u2019 needs are anticipated before they even ask. A customer now browses for running shoes online, purchases them in-store, and receives a personalized upsell promotion to \u201ccomplete the look\u201d with complimentary products. The brand then sends a promotion the following year to upgrade the shoes to a new pair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"making-ai-powered-personalization-real\">Making AI-powered personalization \u201creal\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Collaboration is the heartbeat of innovation:<\/strong> Personalization at scale should be a joint priority for business and technical stakeholders. Together, executives collaborate over a single \u201csource of truth\u201d for data and ensure a dynamic flywheel of data is in place, updating customer signals and operational data (supply chain, promotions, product, point of sale [POS]) in real time. Consistent updating and scrubbing of the data sources ensure conversational agents used by marketers, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/microsoft-copilot\/personal-ai-assistant\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Copilot<\/a>, are reasoning over accurate, quality data and keeps data secure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Simultaneously, marketers apply \u201c<strong>AI as a co-creator strategy\u201d<\/strong> to the end to end (E2E) process of creating, planning, executing, and analyzing campaigns adopting, training, and utilizing conversational agents.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>But, how?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Collaboration between IT and the CMO:<\/strong> Preparing the data estate to accelerate personalization at scale, stakeholders can leverage <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/microsoft-fabric\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Fabric<\/a><\/strong>, a unified data platform with compatibility across multiple cloud platforms, allows marketers to access and analyze up-to-date data directly within the governance boundary.
