To illustrate the power of Zeotap CDP in the context of retail industry dealing with the household and electronics appliance, let's explore a customer story that highlights the transformative impact of CDPs on challenges and successes specific to this sector.

Meet Suzane

Meet Suzane and Richard, an avid travel-loving couple with a passion for fine wine, who recently purchased their first home. Suzane has been exploring the Imagiloom website, her favourite house products ecommerce, at home, browsing on her laptop through a variety of different household appliances and electronic products for their new home and information relating to them.

Suzane and Richard went on a holiday and during their holiday, Suzane continued browsing the Imagiloom site on her phone and laptop, exploring their products thinking about setting up their home. She managed to add an air purifier to the cart and was exploring the payment options. That’s when Suzane is interrupted by a call from Richard and she abandons the session. Little does Suzane realise that the narrative of their user journey holds the promise of an exciting and personalised experience.

Building Suzane’s unified profile with Zeotap CDP

Two days later, while still holidaying and browsing social media, Suzane came across an Imagiloom re-targeting ad on her phone, leading her back to their e-commerce. Suzane decided to step out and venture the city and hence stopped browsing the e-commerce site that she was already browsing on her phone. While exploring the city, Suzane and Richard happened to come across an Imagiloom store. They venture over out of curiosity and also to take a closer look at the products on show. While exploring an Imagiloom store, Suzane decides to purchase the air purifier she had added to her online cart from her laptop. The store assistant enters her records and they are eventually entered into their CRM. As Imagiloom’s CRM is integrated with Zeotap CDP, Suzane's profile is created in it. Zeotap CDP identifies a previous profile for Suzane from when she abandoned her online cart, allowing it to understand her complete browsing history, not just the air purifier. Zeotap CDP merges Suzane’s online presence to create a unified profile of Suzane, combining her online presence (on the website via her laptop and phone) and her offline activities (in the store).

Zeotap CDP meticulously captures detailed information, delving into the intricacies of the user journey. During their store visit, Richard thoroughly examines the available vacuums, facing a plethora of choices. The next day, over breakfast, he remains undecided. To gain a clearer understanding, Richard borrows Suzane’s laptop and explores the Imagiloom website, using the same device and website. This additional data contributes to Suzane's online profile, enriching her unified customer profile in Zeotap CDP.

Suzane’s user journey and continuous profile enrichment

Zooming out for a broader perspective, let's delve into how Zeotap CDP seamlessly integrates into the overall picture. Suzane initiates her online journey using a specific device (at first via her laptop and then via her phone) to explore the Imagiloom website, leading to the creation of her online profile within Zeotap CDP comprising both the device IDs. Subsequently, upon registering and providing her email address at the store, Suzane's profile is complete. Zeotap CDP is now equipped with Suzane’s overall unified profile covering her online and offline activities.

As Richard was exploring the Imagiloom website from the same laptop that Suzane was using and potentially the same session ID on the Imagiloom website, Richard's interactions are combined into Suzane's profile. However, as soon as Richard registers using her email address, a distinct profile is established within Zeotap CDP for Richard.

Optimising marketing spends in the same household

Suzane is added to a suppression segment for a few weeks to be excluded from the expensive continuous re-targeting efforts because she just bought the air purifier. Suzane’s unified profile created within Zeotap CDP helps understand Suzane’s purchase intent and accordingly, Imagiloom can redirect their marketing efforts toward promoting the next best-suited product for her.

And even though they are part of the same household, Richard can be targeted for products related to his past purchases and not Suzane’s purchase history. Zeotap CDP empowers Imagiloom to tailor campaigns for Suzane and Richard either as a unified household or as distinct individual customers.

Conclusion

Zeotap CDP helps Brands have a more meaningful conversation with their customers, for example, by building segments to suppress users who have already made purchases in order to recommend better products based on their past purchases. From capturing customer interactions to orchestrating personalised journeys and measuring campaign effectiveness, Zeotap CDP serves as a central hub for creating seamless, data-driven marketing experiences. Step into the future of customer engagement with Zeotap CDP and unlock your brand's true potential.
