A luxury retailer with ambitious data goals partnered with Artefact to develop a customer-oriented data strategy. Artefact’s approach included developing a comprehensive maturity assessment, identifying opportunities for advanced use cases, and recommending a holistic enterprise data roadmap with business opportunities. This partnership resulted in the qualification of 21 marketing operations use cases, unlocking €3 million in value over a 3-year roadmap through new client acquisition, improved customer lifetime value, and optimised operational costs. Furthermore, the engagement facilitated the design of a target architecture and data collection strategy to effectively support the identified use cases roadmap.

In today’s hyperconnected world, where digital channels dominate the business landscape, does your business harness the full potential of digital marketing strategies?  The stakes are high, but the rewards are significant – businesses like yours, with mature digital marketing functions, report 18% higher revenue growth and 29% higher cost savings.

Roadblocks to your digital marketing maturity journey

The post-COVID era has witnessed remarkable growth in digital marketing investments, with consistent annual growth of over 10%. As companies strive to advance their digital marketing efforts and bridge existing gaps, significant investments are expected to continue. However, many organisations lack a coherent approach, leading to various pitfalls that slow down progress. This is similar to challenges faced by companies to achieve digital transformation objectives where around 70% of companies fail.

While companies are investing to transition to a cookieless world, implement Customer Data Platforms (CDPs), or employ hyper-targeting activation strategies. However, despite these efforts, many companies are falling short of their expected ROI and struggling to scale these initiatives.

Navigating the complexities of the digital marketing ecosystem requires assessing its completeness and relevance, and examining whether your current digital operating model effectively addresses your business challenges.
