The Old Way…Millions of visitors come to our digital sites…
The Old Way……and everyone sees the same home page/sub-pages
Same banners, same headlines, same ads
The Old Way…Then we report on their movements/totals as snapshots, in aggregate, based on Adobe
server-side tagging on every page
Same banners, same headlines, same ads
Which We Turn into Slides…
No prediction of cause and effectNo same-user tracking over multiple visitsNo statistically valid pathing models that could be
easily read/understood, at an individual level (why did this person become a lead?)
Kept us anchored to Adobe (formerly Omniture) for all web analytics! (translation: EXPENSIVE)
Adobe Server-side Tagging is laborious, even with ATM/DTM
Adobe Target code was heavy on our page for Personalization (added 6-8 seconds to home page load times)
Problems with This Approach:
The Time Had Come for Personalization of T.com and Advanced AnalyticsPersonalization is a recognized key trend of modern web sites
Technology of Choice: Celebrus• High performance streaming event capture & delivery platform
– Providing on the fly contextualisation to digital data
– from multiple sources delivering to multiple targets
• Tagging-free deployment is simpler to use & more effective than Adobe Target
• Provides more detailed & complete website ‘big’ data than Google Analytics & Adobe Analytics/SiteCatalyst
• Gives us a much deeper, contextual understanding of individuals through:– In-memory view of each user's interactions in their current website session
– Historic customer profile with behavioural data from previous sessions
• This deeper understanding helps us optimize which actions & messages to take when:– Personalizing website content for each individual user in real-time
– Sending messages to external systems

Delivery of the data file to Celebrus can be scheduled and placed on the Celebrus server
Captures all paths over multiple sessions from both anonymous /known visitors; data automatically feeds analytics/personalization rules engine
Celebrus Considerations• Celebrus can deliver incredibly rich and detailed data which has some great
advantages:– Power analytics to uncover previously hidden insight– Much easier to get detailed data than by tagging– Celebrus data has business context applied so it so has far more value than clickstream
data– Also captures from web and mobile apps as well as across devices enabling complete
single customer view
• You do near to bear in mind however:– That can create a lot of data to store– You might have to spend some time understanding which data is more valuable and
filtering out the "noise"
• In order to identify activities at a company level an add-on package, Maxmind, was needed to provide geo-location insight - they are a Celebrus partner and very inexpensive
Business team uses the self-service data warehouse environment (using BusinessObjects) to develop the Celebrus web analytics data file
The Right First Step: Connect the Source IDW Data to Celebrus

Celebrus-powered Aster nPath Analysis: A path that seems to be working well
1. Optimize
For marketing.t.com, shows most successful paths to ‘Request a demo’. Two main sources of traffic: t.com homepage and marketing.t.com homepage. Paths seem to be working, as the majority are going where we would expect
Compared to a Much More Complex Path
Here are paths to the download of our 2nd-most popular asset in October, the Data Lake white paper. Shows no clear path and a fairly confusing experience—this presents an opportunity for digital to optimize and increase clear visibility for this strong asset! A new model for how digital looks at our web presence.
Aster Reveals Another Opportunity to Increase Responses
Shows that some people are finding their way from the ‘Webcasts’ page in the Resource Library and the bigdata.t.com homepage to the Forbes survey page (our most-downloaded asset in Oct). If we featured the Forbes Survey more prominently on those pages, we could simplify their journey
Customer Journey MapAccount “heat map” insightsPatterns of key pages/site items
Which pages are truly performing best?
Pages with most activity, compared to bounce rates/’Marketing Qualified Response success rate’Patterns based on profile of person who filled out MQR forms (tied to EDW)Patterns based on customer journey time/# of visits
Shorten the time from 1st visit to Marketing Qualified Response
Tie to SAM data so paths for specific sales-qualified leads can be analyzed-which paths made the most money for Teradata?

Future Test nPath Cases: Other Events/Scenarios of Interest
Top-Level Business Impact Goals:Increase page-level click-through rates by 20%Increase % of engaged visits from 45.8% of total visits (2015) to 50% of total visitsIncrease site conversion rate of Marketing Qualified Responses (MQRs)/Visits from 1.24% (2015) to at least 1.50%Increase % of MQRs which come from Target Accounts from 32% (Jan-May 2016) to 50%
We are being more conservative, but will estimate 10-20% improvement in engagement and conversion (extremely dependent on campaign-specific goals, content, and design
Personalization: Business Impact for Teradata
Anonymous VisitorsAccount/Company NameIndustryPrevious Anonymous Online Behavior Account Stage in Waterfall (we know the company, so we can tie to our Account DB)New vs. Return VisitorsReferral Source (search term used, referral site)Known Visitors (had visited previously and given us contact info)Job Title/RolePrevious known user behavior, post-form fill out (attendance at last year’s PARTNERS, specific white papers downloaded, campaign forms filled out, etc.)Individual Name (ex.: ‘welcome back, Samantha’)
No one can answer that question today - We will!

Personalized Messaging for Target Accounts/IndividualsShow 1st visit messaging determined to be appropriate for specific account (s)Or, after 2nd visit, they see messaging based on their previous on-site activityIf they have filled out a form, and we have contact information, possibly welcome by nameOffer to have them return to where they left offShow them relevant product- or solution-related content based on their job title/function

‘Pages Viewed By Your Peers’ Widget for Target AccountsCreate a widget that shows the top pages viewed by other people from their company domain, or by other people with their similar job title from other companiesCould be modified to show top assets downloaded by other people from their company or job title
Specific Post-POC Use Cases for Personalization

deeper personalization than that offered (to date) by companies like Adobe, DemandBase, Google, and LinkedIn
• A repeatable process involving cooperation between Marketing and IT
• Biggest challenges ahead: data quality and content creation strategy
• We can help you do exactly the same thing – talk with us about your web data situation
• Our addiction to Adobe and Google has been broken!
