Omnichannel Marketing

Creating a unified customer experience across all communication channels to increase conversion and loyalty

What is Omnichannel Marketing

Messages form a unified chain across all channels

Management

Multichannel:

Separate management of each channel

Omnichannel:

Unified control center for all channels

Identification

Multichannel:

Customer may appear as new in different channels

Omnichannel:

Customer is identified consistently across all channels

Examples of Successful Omnichannel Marketing

Online and Offline Purchase Integration

A customer starts placing an order in an app and then completes the purchase in a physical store. The system recognizes them as the same customer, preserving the interaction history.

Personalized Recommendations

Based on website browsing data, a company sends personalized offers via email, and if there's no reaction, via messenger or SMS.

Unified Loyalty Card

Bonuses and discounts are accrued and used in the same way regardless of the purchase channel - in a brick-and-mortar store, on a website, or in an app.
