How a Cloud-First Approach to Data Transforms Customer Experiences | Sponsored Content | Tech-Talk Webinar | On-Demand

Presented by Merkle

Today’s customers expect to receive a meaningful and consistent experience across each interaction with your brand. Yet, according to Merkle’s Q3 2020 survey of US and UK marketers, 57% of data platforms are falling behind on the maturity scale making it nearly impossible for companies to meet customers’ demands.

Insurance provider AAA Life found itself in such a predicament. Campaigns were taking too long, while segmentation and targeting efforts were inefficient. Plus, measurement and reporting on campaign performance was limited and lacked consistent insights to make improvements—delaying campaigns being brought to market.

eMarketer was pleased to moderate a Tech-Talk Webinar featuring Merkle’s Brett McTammany, vice president of marketing technology, delivery lead insurance, Amazon Web Services’ Kevin Wall, solutions architect, and AAA Life Insurance’s Jennifer Hart, vice president of direct marketing, and Rafael Mejia, director of analytics and data management. They shared AAA Life’s data modernization story and the business case for adopting a cloud-first data marketing platform.

Watch this webinar and learn:

  • How to solve common personalization challenges, like antiquated tech and data strategies
  • What type of data foundation is critical to activate meaningful customer experiences
  • How to select a cloud environment and migration partner to ensure success and sustainability
