Long before the invention of the internet, and online shopping, customers have always valued personalized experiences - the store owner who knows your name or the barista who knows just how you like your coffee. When online shopping was introduced, this was one of the main concerns. How can we offer the same level of personalization in an ecommerce store?
Thankfully, the quick evolution of the ecommerce space has led to the discovery of innovative ways to personalize customer experiences. These days, customers or prospects at every stage of the customer journey expect brands to make them feel special. If you're operating in the ecommerce space and you cannot guarantee personalization, there's a high chance you'll struggle to keep up with your competitors.
