DESCRIPTION
Great sales start with listening. Similarly, online conversations start with relevant content. Most websites display the same content to everyone. Result: Lower conversion rates, frustrated users and hapless marketing teams who are constantly guessing about their target market. In this webinar, Jacob Singh has demonstrated how one can use simple open source tools and some web services to create a website which adapts to the user through explicit targeting and artificial intelligence that listens to them and gives them what they are actually looking for.

01. Benefits
12
Business goals of a digital property!!• Increase revenue • Increase time on site • Improve customer loyalty/satisfaction • Reduce costs to acquire customers
13
Typical deal funnel!
14
This model completely ignores the fact that each user is different and has a variety of reasons they visit a site, each looking for something specific.!!
15
Benefits of personalization!• Better site usability.
– Showing the right content directly makes a site easier to browse. It allows users to find the most desirable information quickly.
• Increase conversions / call to actions – By putting the right content in front of a user you increase the odds
that they will make a call to action. • Retention
– Personalization enhances a site’s stickiness and an increased likelihood that a customer will bookmark and return to your site.
• Replicating a familiar experience – Think of personalization like the friendly sales clerk. The person
that remembers you, suggests purchases and helps you solve problems.

02. Techniques
17
Testing Easily create A/B and multivariate tests for your content directly in Drupal. Create and track conversion goals and gain real-time insight into performance against KPIs.
Targeting Automated targeting and explicit rules-based targeting based on attributes stored in Drupal, or on a wide range of detected attributes like geo-location, device, or even current weather.
Reporting Build personas based on both “at-a-glance” and detailed reports so you understand content relevance and what’s driving lift.
Tools of personalization!
18
Testing!
• Randomly showing different users different content
• Can be A/B (2 variants) or A/B, A/C, B/C (Multivariant).
• Must be matched with goals to determine success
19
Testing: Expedia earned $12m by removing one field!
20
Targeting!
• Intentionally showing different users content based on information we have about them
• Can be explicit (Tell the system to show North Indian users the Holi promotion)
• Can be implicit (This user is a North Indian and they typically click Holi ads more, so automatically show it).
21
Targeting: Logged out of google!
22
Logged into google!
23
Reporting!
• Correlate behavior to personalization • Drive marketing, IT, and product strategy • Feeds into future testing cycles

03. Strategy
26
Factors of personalization!
• Variants – Variations of content and/or user interface
• Contexts – Data about the user or their behavior
• Goals – Quantifiable actions that contribute to business
goals.
27
JARGON EXAM!!
• We Test under which Contexts a Variant will result in more Goal conversions.!Our Reporting allows us to Target users and personalize their experience.
28
Example!
• Variant: – Long signup form vs. short sign up form
• Goals: – Short form submission, Long form submission,
email click through, purchase. • Contexts:
– Time on site, country, local time of day, % of youth in the visitor’s city, etc.
29
Possible conclusions!
• Short forms submit 25% more than long forms, but long forms have 40% more revenue attached.
• People in cities where the population is demographically younger are more likely to abandon a long form.
• Show the long form more often in demographically older areas.
30
Implicit vs Explicit!
• Explicit personalization: – Tell the site to show Variant A to everyone using
a smartphone on the weekend. • Implicit personalization:
– System discovers that Variant A is more effective when used by mobile users on the weekend, automatically creates the rule and tests it.
31
Case study: Acquia.com!• Column 1:
– Maxim and Semi Case study has a 140% lift
– CMS Selection guide for government with an 88% lift
• Column 3: – CMS Selection guide is showing a
300% lift – When Gov goes Digital Solution
Brief with 56% lift • Free page button copy (A/B)
– Control originally said "Get Free” but "Start Coding" had a 17% increase in clicks and a 31% lift over all other tested options
• Summary: So far Lift has provided a 17% lead increase and a 33% click through improvement
