What does personalization actually mean — Randy Frisch // Uberflip

Randy Frisch, Chief Evangelist, Co-Founder, and President of Uberflip, talks about how your company can avoid falling into a promotional trap. Due to the high levels of personalization provided by platforms such as Netflix, Spotify, and Amazon, consumers now expect a similar level of personalization from B2B and B2C brands. To meet these expectations, companies need to adapt by providing relevant and personalized content that can guide consumers through the buying journey. Today, Randy discusses what personalization actually means.

Show Notes

  • 02:37
    The shift in personalization expectations of consumers
    Consumers now expect personalization from brands, based on popular companies like Spotify personalizing their content recommendations based on their past behavior. Personalizing content has become essential to inform the next step and to solve problems for consumers.
  • 07:05
    Navigating the balance of personalization and building trust
    The decision to allow apps and websites to track our behavior is based on the perceived value of the app or website. We must be clear and simple when asking for personal information and show how it will be used to continue to add value to the user experience.

    Using progressive profiling to build trust and acquire customer information
    Companies need to move away from asking for too much information upfront, resulting in low conversion rates on landing pages. Progressive profiling allows for building better user profiles by gradually asking for minimal information as they engage with more content.
