Vamaship has cracked the code to a personalised shipping experience for your customers.
Today’s retail world has become most challenging from all perspectives, be it the price pressures, market disruptions or dynamic nature of the market. Gone are the days of traditional ways of doing retail business. You can no longer offer unique products, strategic price points or promotions. These can be easily replicated by your competitors. Having said that, you still need to stand out from the crowd and get noticed. Today it is not about the big or loud things. It is about knowing the little things about your customer and personalising your offering accordingly.
A highly personalised customer experience can be offered to your customers. All you need is your proprietary data collected over the years! This personalisation is very difficult for competitors to replicate and gives you a sustainable competitive edge in the market. Research shows that personalised experiences help improve not only customer loyalty but also your sales.
Thanks to online giants like Amazon and Flipkart, customers now expect personalisation in their experience. Certain aspects of personalisation have become standard in the ecommerce industry. We have now come to a point where customer take few personalisation aspects for granted, and these are not provided they will easily opt for your competitor next time.
How personalisation works?
Given the customers’ expectations, ecommerce retailers not only need to provide personalisation to survive, but they must explore ways to differentiate themselves through personalisation. When done on a one on one basis, personalisation can yield upto 1 to 2% increase in the top line.
Successfully run personalisation campaigns can offer more than just engaged customers. In general, a few positive customer experience resulting from personalisation will result in 20% higher customer satisfaction, 15% increase in sales and you can expect 3 times the ROI. While we have seen this happen to our customers, these numbers we shared by McKinsey in their recent report on personalised customer experience
