Increasing spend on AI to identify customer behaviour patterns

Although the industry has been looking to personalisation for some time, I think it has now become a key topic to tackle to win customers and drive retention [...] Personalisation is key to supporting the frequency of purchases and brand loyalty. It helps stand out from the crowd and supports improved customer satisfaction.

Emilie Mouquot
VP of Marketing, Not On The High Street

At the initial acquisition point, the goal for any retailer is to have the customer try your products and really get behind them. You want customers to keep coming back because they believe in your brand. They are not just repeat customers but brand ambassadors on your behalf.

Holly Steele
Head of Technology, Sweaty Betty

Personalisation and AI are massive opportunities for brands. Over half of the companies surveyed say it’s already driving major sales impacts [...] Today, marketers can target precise product recommendations at specific moments by using personalised messaging and creatives, regardless of where that user is in their infinite journey.

Andrew Howe
VP of Operations UK, RTB House
