Customer-Centric Data and Analytics-Readiness
In the age of holistic personalization, Customer Data Platform (CDP) featuring Customer 360 View is clearly the common goal for many marketing organizations. Development of a customer-centric database requires a comprehensive data roadmap, as a CDP is not just a pool of available data in one place. All data elements must be carefully converted into “descriptors of individual” for each target. Creating a Customer ID system through commercially available services is just the first step.
Further, all data must be “analytics-ready” for effective segmentation, modeling, and targeting. It is common that data scientists often spend over 80% of their valuable time in pre-analytics processing such as data cleansing, categorization, and summarization. Such work should be done “before” any serious analytics project begins, and resultant “Analytics Sandbox” will expedite post-analytics deployment processes, as well. When real-time personalization is the goal, most heavy lifting must be done up front, not at the last second.
