customer experience personalization: enabling cross sell/up sell and next best actions
DESCRIPTION
In this session, hear how Prolifics leveraged the events and rules capabilities of WebSphere Operational Decision Manager to create a personalization solution for a leading financial company. Personalization allows for a consistent way of communicating with customers across multiple channels on next-best actions, profiles and preferences, and responding in real time to changes in customers' characteristics across all media (including web assets, call routing, client rep systems, surveys, and correspondence). This allows for improved customer experiences, cross-sell and up-sell opportunities, and better response times. The solution leverages the full predictive cycle, from integration data, to analytics, to operational decisions, to a cached high-performing tag cloud that drives the individual customer experience.TRANSCRIPT
