It might seem like a good idea to use email to resolve customer issues or to simply solve customer issues wherever they find you. It’s simple. It’s cost-saving. But you know what else it is? Messy and risky. Messy, because your communications with customers are all over the place. There’s not a single, unified platform to manage your customers.

TechTarget defines personalisation as a “means of meeting the customer’s needs more effectively and efficiently, making interactions faster and easier, and consequently, increasing customer satisfaction and the likelihood of repeat visits”.
