Program

The Anatomy of a Personalization System: Three Case Studies

Speaker: Derek Olson
Time: 2:00 PM - 2:50 PM   Date: June 15
Track: Category 1

Is your website acting like it’s on a first date instead of a 10th wedding anniversary dinner?

This presentation is aimed at business owners, marketing professionals, user experience engineers, and content contributors who realize that the one-size fits all message of their website doesn’t quite fit anyone.

When does a personalized website add real value to the customer experience?  How can you build measurement of this value into personalization systems?

In this presentation, we will:

  • Learn how to recognize situations where personalized website content, emails or application functionality might lead to customer delight
  • Take a tour of three real world examples, including a detailed look under the hood to see what makes them work
  • Hear about some road-tested methods for combining off-the-shelf software with custom development and freeware that won’t break the bank
  • Explore both explicit personalization (based on user-submitted data) and implicit personalization (based on “clickstream” info), and how they can be combined
  • See first-hand the importance of measurement. We’re talking about traffic, conversions, sales, user behavior, and more.
