Last week at the eChai event, I had the pleasure of leading a Sales Masterclass, which sparked an engaging conversation during one-on-one networking. One attendee asked a thought-provoking question: “How critical is personalization in sales now?” This led us to explore a significant shift in customer expectations and how personalization is becoming essential.
I shared a striking statistic from a Salesforce report: 80% of customers now expect personalized experiences from companies. This reflects a move from generic interactions to those tailored to individual needs and preferences.
We then discussed how modern AI tools are revolutionising personalization. For example, a SaaS company might use AI to analyze user behavior on their platform—tracking usage patterns, feature interactions, and support requests—to deliver highly personalized in-app recommendations and targeted training. This approach not only enhances user engagement but also addresses specific customer needs proactively.
An attendee shared their success story using AI-driven analytics to personalize email marketing campaigns, resulting in a 25% increase in open rates and a 15% rise in conversions. This example highlighted how AI transforms data into actionable insights, creating tailored interactions that drive measurable results.
Our post-session conversations underscored that personalization is no longer a luxury—it’s a vital element of successful sales strategies. With AI, we’re not just meeting customer expectations; we’re setting new standards for exceptional, tailored experiences. Embracing AI and personalisation means leading the way in customer engagement, forging stronger connections, and driving sustained business growth.
