Personalization has been a top priority for marketers for some time, but despite this fact, many marketers seem to be struggling to implement personalization strategies in an intelligent and scalable way. Marketers are struggling to track their targeted customers through the entire journey and find it hard to attribute the marketing performance to individual programs, campaigns or channels.
However, nearly half of the retail professionals worldwide said that they have plans to add personalization to their e-commerce efforts within a year as a response to increasing threats from e-commerce giants like Amazon, according to eMarketer.
