What is hyper-personalization?


What is hyper-personalization?

“The use of data to provide more personalized and targeted products, services and content.”

- Business2Community, 2014

“The true standard for hyper-personalization is interacting one-to-one with individuals, not segments. To anticipate an individual’s desires at any point in time, however, requires having deep customer insight, which comes from analyzing granular data.”

- Marketing Land, 2015

over time.● Help usher in the “next

best action”.

PERSONALIZATION: Be Brilliant, Stay Helpful

Conversion rate optimization (CRO) is the process of optimizing your search ads, landing pages, and overall website design to raise your conversion rate.

In other words, the goal is for the highest possible percentage of visitors to your site to convert, or complete your desired action.

Results

Hyper-Personalization: Post-Conversion Engagement

Post-conversion thank you pages are excellent opportunities to drive further engagement.

Be sure to personalize the subsequent engagement CTA based on the recent conversion.

TIP: Use this formula to define your lead's ideal post-conversion pathway:

After my site visitor does [x], I want them to do [y] from the thank you page, so that [z] will happen.



Original conversion was a webinar, a great MOFU offer.

Subsequent post-conversion CTA is a “Chat with an Expert” BOFU offer that’s contextualized based on the webinar topic.



Progressive profiling offers another opportunity to integrate hyper-personalization in your form fields.


Setting the StageConsider a business that has a long sales cycle. With a long sales cycle, leads may need more nurturing before they’re ready for a middle-of-funnel or bottom-of-funnel offer.

relevant content and increase engagement.
