Challenges

Data Siloes and Generic Marketing

Before integrating with Mapp Marketing Cloud, Farrow & Ball’s customer data was fragmented across multiple systems, making it challenging to visualize complete customer journeys and analyze data effectively.

Their limited personalization and automation capabilities also hindered their ability to tailor communications to individual customer behaviors and preferences, resulting in generic and less engaging marketing campaigns.

Solutions

Optimizing Marketing with Advanced Analytics and Automation

Mapp’s Customer Data Platform (CDP) enabled Farrow & Ball to consolidate fragmented data from multiple sources to create a unified view of each customer. By enabling the team with effective data analysis, Mapp Marketing Cloud helped Farrow & Ball to understand customer behaviors and preferences better to create highly personalized marketing campaigns.
