Just like in high school chemistry class: Find the right mixing ratio, otherwise things will explode quickly!

How much personalization is possible in our complex data protection world? With valantic as your partner, we bring these two concepts into line without conflict – and without explosions – we promise.

Now let’s move from chemistry class to reality. Today, customer experience plays a key role, as does the building block of personalization. This means addressing customers personally and at the right time, making personalized product suggestions, and only providing relevant information. All of these are critical to successfully creating and implementing customer experience.

Now let’s go back to chemistry class and imagine how our chemistry teacher entered the room at the time. The students’ mood darkened when it turned out that the Bunsen burners didn’t work again. Similarly, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) frequently thwarts many companies. No chemistry lessons without Bunsen burners, no lasting and successful customer experience without personalization. Companies are faced with the challenge of developing appropriate personalization strategies that are compatible with the GDPR.

Are you trying to reconcile these two aspects?

Perhaps our checklist can help:

  • Are you looking for personalization across all touchpoints in your customer journey?
  • Can your customers clearly influence the use of their data?
  • Do your CX solutions access the same data source or are you working with data silos?
  • Are you already complying with all the guidelines of the GDPR?
  • Are your CX solutions aligned, or do they operate independently of one another?

Many of our customers are already aware of this topic and together we have been able to develop a suitable strategy through comprehensive consulting, a strategy that created a direct competitive advantage. At valantic, our focus is on bringing business, technology, and experience into harmony.
