The Challenge

A prominent retail brand struggled with inconsistent customer engagement and fragmented marketing efforts across multiple channels. Their existing marketing tools lacked the ability to provide a unified customer view, automate personalized campaigns, or accurately measure marketing ROI. They needed a robust platform to enhance customer journeys and drive sales.

  2. Data Model Design: Designed a robust data model within SFMC to consolidate customer data from various sources (CRM, e-commerce platform, loyalty programs) for a single customer view.
  3. Journey Builder Implementation: Built complex, multi-channel customer journeys using Journey Builder to automate personalized email, SMS, and mobile push campaigns based on customer behavior and preferences.
  4. Content Builder & Email Studio: Migrated existing email templates and developed new dynamic content blocks in Content Builder, enabling highly personalized email communications.
  5. Integration with Salesforce Sales Cloud: Established seamless, real-time integration between SFMC and Salesforce Sales Cloud to ensure sales and marketing teams worked with synchronized customer data.
  6. Automation Studio & Audience Builder: Leveraged Automation Studio for automated data imports/exports and Audience Builder for segmenting customers for targeted campaigns.
  7. Analytics & Reporting: Configured comprehensive dashboards within SFMC to track campaign performance, email engagement metrics, and marketing attribution.
