Transform Customer Experience

In today’s AI-driven business environment, customer experience (CX) has evolved from being a buzzword to a critical factor in determining success. It’s no longer enough for businesses to offer high-quality products or excellent service alone—today’s customers are always online, engaged, and seeking the most convenient, relevant, and enjoyable experiences. This is where Salesforce Data Cloud becomes a game-changer, providing the tools needed to meet modern customer expectations. Transforming Customer Experience with Salesforce Data Cloud Salesforce enables businesses to collect, integrate, and leverage critical customer information within its ecosystem, offering an all-encompassing view of each customer. This unified customer data allows organizations to forecast visitor trends, assess marketing impact, and predict customer behavior. As data-driven decision-making becomes increasingly central to business strategy, Salesforce Data Cloud and its Customer Data Platform (CDP) features provide a significant competitive edge—whether in e-commerce, fintech, or B2B industries. Data Cloud is more than just your traditional CDP. It’s the only data platform native to the world‘s #1 AI CRM. This means that marketers can quickly access and easily action on unified data – from across the entire business – to drive growth and increase customer lifetime value. Data Cloud’s Role in Enhancing CX By unifying data in one place, Salesforce Data Cloud enables organizations to access real-time customer insights. This empowers them to track customer activity across channels like email, social media, and online sales, facilitating targeted marketing strategies. Businesses can analyze customer behavior and deliver personalized messaging, aligning marketing, sales, and customer service efforts to ensure consistency. With these capabilities, Salesforce customers can elevate the CX by delivering the right content, at the right time, to the right audience, ultimately driving customer satisfaction and growth. New Features of Salesforce Data Cloud Salesforce continues to evolve, introducing cutting-edge features that reshape customer interaction: To fully maximize these features, partnering with a Salesforce Data Cloud consultant can help businesses unlock the platform’s full potential and refine their customer engagement strategies. Agentic AI Set to Supercharge Business Processes Salesforce’s vision extends beyond customer relationship management with the integration of Agentic AI through its Customer 360 platform. According to theCUBE Research analysts, this signals a shift toward using AI agents to automate complex business processes. These AI agents, built on Salesforce’s vast data resources, promise to revolutionize how companies operate, offering customized, AI-driven business tools. “If they can pull this off, where it becomes a more dynamic app platform, more personalized, really focused on those processes all the way back to the data, it’s going to be a clear win for them,” said Strechay. “They’re sitting on cloud; they’re sitting on IaaS. That’s a huge win from that perspective.” AI agents create a network of microservices that think and act independently, involving human intervention only when necessary. This division of labor allows businesses to capture expertise in routine tasks while freeing human workers to focus on more complex decision-making. However, the success of these AI agents depends on access to accurate and reliable data. As Gilbert explained, “Agents can call on other agents, and when they’re not confident of a step in a process or an outcome, they can then bounce up to an inbox for a human to supervise.” The goal isn’t to eliminate humans but to capture their expertise for simpler processes. Empowering Developers and Citizen Creators At the core of this AI-driven transformation is Salesforce’s focus on developers. The platform’s low-code tools allow businesses to easily customize AI agents and automate business processes, empowering both experienced developers and citizen creators. With simple language commands or goal-setting, companies can build and train these AI agents, streamlining operations. “It’s always going to be about good data—that’s the constant,” Bertrand said. “The second challenge is how to train agents and humans to work together effectively. While some entry-level jobs may be replaced, AI will continue to evolve, creating new opportunities in the future.” Is Salesforce Data Cloud the Right Fit for Your Business? Salesforce Data Cloud offers comprehensive capabilities for businesses of all sizes, but it’s essential to assess whether it aligns with your specific needs. The platform is particularly valuable for: For businesses that fit these scenarios, working with Salesforce’s partner ecosystem or a Data Cloud consultant can help ensure successful integration and optimization. What’s New in Salesforce’s Latest Release? The latest Salesforce Spring Release introduced several exciting features, further enhancing Salesforce Data Cloud: These updates reflect Salesforce’s commitment to providing innovative, data-driven solutions that enhance customer experiences and drive business success.

Oracle Advertising Sundown

Oracle Shifts Focus to B2B CX, Introduces New Fusion Cloud Features Despite winding down its online advertising products, Oracle is doubling down on its investment in customer experience (CX) technology, particularly in enabling B2B buying and supporting subscription and consumption models. During the Oracle CloudWorld conference on Wednesday, the company unveiled new capabilities for its Fusion Cloud Customer Experience and Unity Customer Data Platform. These enhancements empower Oracle CX users to analyze customer profiles to assemble B2B buying teams, leverage generative AI tools like native analytics, and utilize industry-specific accelerators to speed up the adoption of customer data tools. Key features include the ability to create self-service sites for individual accounts, enabling customers to review and summarize contracts using generative AI, receive quotes, and renew subscriptions. Other features enhance “assisted buying experiences,” blending self-service and human interaction, while tools like account onboarding and AI-powered email drafting simplify full-service sales processes. Subscription models, though still in their early stages for B2B, offer a streamlined alternative to traditional procurement processes. As Liz Miller, an analyst at Constellation Research, noted, subscription-based buying is easier and quicker, avoiding the lengthy procurement cycles many B2B buyers are familiar with. “The pain of traditional B2B buying is still fresh in everyone’s mind,” she said. Oracle Advertising Shuts Down Oracle’s advertising product support will end on September 30, as confirmed by CEO Safra Catz during the company’s June earnings call. The Oracle Advertising Data Management Platform (DMP), built from its BlueKai acquisition, is being retired, following in the footsteps of Salesforce, which discontinued its Audience Studio in 2021. Despite Oracle winding down its ad platform, this move shouldn’t be seen as a shift away from customer experience. Oracle founder Larry Ellison remains deeply involved in shaping the company’s CX strategy, with a focus on marketing tools and Apex low-code platforms, said Rob Pinkerton, Oracle’s senior vice president. Oracle’s modernized CX suite, built on the Fusion Cloud platform, has evolved significantly in recent years, though questions remain about whether it’s too late to regain market share. “Oracle as a CX platform has fallen off the radar for many buyers,” said Miller, adding that customers are no longer debating between Oracle, Microsoft, and Salesforce in the CX space. New Industry-Specific Tools for CX Oracle has also expanded its CX platform with industry-specific tools designed to accelerate the adoption of its customer data platform (CDP) across sectors such as high tech, manufacturing, professional services, telecommunications, utilities, financial services, travel, and retail. According to Rebecca Wettemann, CEO of research firm Valoir, Oracle’s Fusion platform has matured significantly and now supports the complexity of modern customer needs. Wettemann highlighted how common components like customer interaction summaries can be adapted for multiple industries, delivering faster results than traditional applications. Oracle’s Clinical Digital Assistant is one such example of this approach, illustrating the platform’s versatility and AI-driven enhancements. With these developments, Oracle continues to refine its CX offerings to better meet the unique demands of B2B customers, providing tools that streamline operations and enhance customer experiences across various industries.

Changes in Advertising Changing CRMs

Oracle announced last week that it is exiting the advertising business and will sunset its adtech by September 30. While the announcement is not surprising given the massive layoffs in 2022 affecting Oracle Advertising teams, the rapidity of Oracle Advertising’s decline is a clear indicator of how swiftly the digital advertising landscape can evolve. This move is likely just the first of many significant Changes in Advertising Changing CRMs. What happened? Oracle Advertising faced challenges beginning in 2018 and never managed to recover. Several forces related to data deprecation adversely impacted the business: Changes in Advertising Changing CRMs Retooling its acquisitions to function in a consent-driven and regulated environment would have required significant investment from Oracle. Given its track record with privacy law compliance, this would have been a daunting task, necessitating both rapid innovation and market trust in its solutions. What does this mean for the advertising ecosystem? Oracle’s exit from adtech marks a significant shift in the advertising ecosystem. The sharp decline in advertising revenue from $2 billion in 2022 to $300 million in 2024 suggests a major miscalculation by Oracle. Without demand- or supply-side platforms (unlike Google, Microsoft, and Amazon) and lacking a large audience base (unlike Meta, Disney, and Netflix), Oracle’s benefits as an adtech partner or acquirer were unclear. The key question now is whether Oracle’s intellectual property will find new ownership and continue in some form. What does this mean for the marketing ecosystem? The broader marketing ecosystem is likely to see more shifts as major players adapt to the new landscape. Leading martech vendors like Adobe and Salesforce have already transitioned from DMPs to CDPs. Adobe Real-Time CDP and Salesforce Data Cloud for Marketing are gaining market share, while Oracle has struggled in the B2C martech space. Oracle’s decision to cut investments in martech and adtech has significantly impaired its B2C market efforts, with products like Responsys failing to gain the traction that Eloqua has in the B2B space. Oracle also announced it will sunset related B2C marketing products like Oracle Maxymiser in the coming months. These changes are just the beginning of a broader transformation in digital advertising, driven by evolving privacy standards, consumer expectations, and technological advancements. This marks the dawn of a new era in which agility and compliance will be key to success in the digital advertising and marketing landscapes.

Zero Copy from Salesforce

When was the last time you relocated? Remember the hassle of packing up all your stuff, loading it onto a truck, and unpacking everything at your new digs, hoping it all survived the journey? Now, imagine if your furniture and possessions could simply teleport to your new location in perfect condition. While this may not be possible (yet) in the physical world, the concept of zero copy integration offers a similar seamless experience for handling customer data. Zero Copy from Salesforce. Zero copy integration, also known as zero ETL (extract-transform-load), allows data to be shared among multiple data stores without the need for actual movement or duplication. This is particularly advantageous for companies utilizing cloud data warehouses like Snowflake or Google BigQuery. Some companies hesitate to adopt a customer data platform (CDP) due to concerns about duplicating data. However, with zero copy integration, users can leverage the benefits of a CDP—such as data harmonization, identity management, built-in analytics, and activation—without the drawbacks of physical data movement. Some functions related to data have advanced with astonishing speed: generation, dissemination, storage, even security (and yes, that one still has many challenges). But there are others still mired in the stone age—call it the 80s—of the digital era. For example, think copies. How many business professionals still make multiple copies of sensitive data, just as it’s been done for the last four decades? What does this endless duplication do for regulatory risk, security threats and privacy liabilities? This is a symptom of a larger problem: Far from the data-centric universe we all envisioned, we’re beholden instead to the apps used to create, store, and distribute data. There’s an app for everything, but also a database for every app, leading to dozens of data silos undergoing hundreds of integrations, increasing fragmentation, complexity, and costs. The basic idea, according to Dan DeMers, Cinchy’s CEO, is that the framework aims to remove application data silos by using access-based data collaboration versus standard API-base data integration that involves copying data and branding it with complex app-specific coding. This would be done by access controls set in the data layer. It would also involve: What is Zero Copy Integration? Zero copy integration enables access to data stored in multiple databases simultaneously without the need to move, copy, or reformat the data. This approach not only facilitates faster and easier access to data but also reduces costs and minimizes the risk of errors associated with data movement or transformation. Comparing Traditional Methods with Zero Copy Integration: Traditional Methods: Zero Copy Integration: How It Works: From CDP to Data Warehouse In this scenario, data is accessed from the CDP and shared with the data warehouse, a process known as data sharing. The steps typically involve: How It Works: From Data Warehouse to CDP Conversely, in this scenario, data is accessed from the data warehouse and integrated into the CDP, a process referred to as data federation. The steps typically involve: Real-World Application: How Buyers Edge Utilizes Zero Copy Technology Buyers Edge, a leading procurement optimization company in the food service industry, leverages zero copy technology to access purchase data stored in a data warehouse while building a unified customer profile in a CDP. This allows them to provide better customer insights to their sales and marketing teams. By eliminating the need for data movement, duplication, or reformatting, zero copy technology streamlines data access, harmonizes data for insights and analytics, and provides a real-time holistic view of customers. As data volumes continue to grow exponentially, technologies like zero copy integration will play a crucial role in simplifying data management and facilitating seamless access to valuable insights. Whether it’s optimizing business processes or enhancing customer experiences, zero copy integration empowers organizations to navigate the data landscape with agility and efficiency. Be a zero copy hero and unlock the full potential of your data management strategy. “In today’s digital landscape, companies struggle with islands of data spread across various systems. With this global ecosystem of partners, companies can access all of their data, no matter where it resides, and unlock the power of all of that data within Salesforce — creating more personalized customer interactions and establishing a foundation for trusted AI, in less time and at lower cost.” Brian Millham, President and Chief Operating Officer at Salesforce The Zero Copy Partner Network features initial partners Amazon Web Services (AWS), Databricks, Google Cloud, and Snowflake, and adds Microsoft, all committed to zero copy integrations with Salesforce that give customers a secure and cost-effective way to connect and take action on all of their data New zero copy support for data warehouses and data lakehouses built on open table formats, like Apache Iceberg, with Salesforce Data Cloud, removes the need to copy or move data, so customers can unlock their data, powering Customer 360 experiences with AI, automation, and analytics The network includes Salesforce ISV partners, building new Zero Copy Data Kits to bring valuable new datasets to Salesforce Data Cloud, and Salesforce SI partners including Accenture, Cognizant, Deloitte Digital, and PwC, helping customers with zero copy Salesforce Data Cloud implementations.

Streamlining Data Management: Harnessing Zero Copy Integration for Efficient Customer Insights Zero copy integration offers a revolutionary approach to accessing and utilizing customer data without the need for burdensome data transfers. By seamlessly linking disparate databases, this innovative technique eliminates the complexities associated with moving, copying, or reformatting data. Let’s explore how zero copy integration can optimize data management processes and enhance the efficiency of customer data platforms (CDPs) alongside traditional data warehouses. Understanding Zero Copy Integration: Zero copy integration, also known as zero ETL (extract-transform-load), facilitates the sharing of data across multiple databases without physically relocating it. This method enables real-time access to data, significantly reducing costs and mitigating the risks of errors inherent in data movement processes. Unlike traditional data replication methods, zero copy integration ensures that data remains in its original location, eliminating the need for redundant storage and synchronization efforts. Good technology standards can actually bring order to the chaos and allow products from different companies to work together, fostering healthy competition and enhancing productivity. That is precisely what Zero-Copy Integration does. Zero-Copy Integration is a framework that eliminates the need for data copies and integration, making it easier to work with applications, analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. Canada’s Digital Governance Council recently announced that Zero-Copy Integration has been published for open access by the public, setting a new standard for data collaboration. Moreover, Zero-Copy Integration prioritizes data-centricity and active metadata over complex code and solution modularity over monolithic design. It also facilitates data governance through data products and federated stewardship, eliminating the need for centralized teams. In addition to boosting the development and deployment of new technologies, Zero-Copy Integration also addresses the growing number of data privacy regulations. By putting data at the center of the process, Zero-Copy Integration ensures greater collaboration and control, positively affecting industries like healthcare, research, banking, and public services. Benefits of Zero-Data Integration Proponents of zero-copy integration and dataware say the framework will lower data storage costs, improve performance of IT teams, improve privacy and security of data, and drive innovation in systems for public health, social research, open banking and sustainability through innovations in: Comparing Traditional vs. Zero Copy Integration: Aspect Traditional Zero Copy Replication Requires copying data to target Data remains in original location Updates Data accuracy dependent on synchronization Real-time access to data Cost Involves data movement expenses No additional data movement costs Regulatory Compliance Complex governance due to data duplication Simplified compliance with source data only Errors Data movement introduces potential errors Minimized risk of errors with no data movement Maintenance Increases complexity with copying and synchronization Streamlined management with no data relocation Implementing Zero Copy Integration: The implementation of zero copy integration varies depending on the platform and direction of data access. Let’s explore how it works in scenarios involving Salesforce Data Cloud and Snowflake data warehouse: Case Study: Buyers Edge’s Zero Copy Success Story: Buyers Edge, a procurement optimization company, leveraged zero copy integration to unify customer profiles in a CDP while accessing purchase data from their data warehouse. By seamlessly integrating Salesforce Data Cloud with their warehouse, Buyers Edge enhanced predictive modeling capabilities, resulting in tailored sales and marketing strategies. Zero copy integration revolutionizes data management practices by enabling seamless data access and eliminating the need for data duplication or relocation.

The Crucial Role of Data and Integration in AI at Dreamforce

Understanding The Crucial Role of Data and Integration in AI at Dreamforce At this year’s Dreamforce, AI is the star of the show, but two essential supporting actors are data and integration. Enterprises are increasingly recognizing the importance of unifying their diverse data sources for effective analysis and swift action, and the race to harness AI makes this integration even more critical. Integration is key not only for merging data but also for automating end-to-end processes, enabling organizations to move faster and deliver better outcomes to customers. Crucial Role of Data and Integration in AI at Dreamforce. It’s no surprise that MuleSoft, acquired by Salesforce five years ago, is now a major contributor to Salesforce’s growth. Brian Millham, President and COO at Salesforce, highlighted this during the company’s recent Q2 earnings call: “In Q2, nearly half of our greater than $1 million deals included MuleSoft. As customers integrate data from all sources to drive efficiency, growth, and insights, MuleSoft has become mission-critical and was included in half of our top 10 deals.” Breaking Down Silos Param Kahlon, EVP and General Manager for Automation and Integration at Salesforce, recently discussed the investments customers are making in data and integration. He emphasized the importance of breaking down operational silos: “We are in the business of breaking silos across systems to ensure that data can travel seamlessly through multiple systems and people for processes like order-to-cash or procure-to-pay. Our technology connects these dots.” The surge in AI interest has increased the urgency to act, as Kahlon explained: “Creating data repositories for AI algorithms requires real-time data across silos, driving significant demand for our integration solutions.” Consolidating Data Enterprises have long struggled with data consolidation due to monolithic application stacks with separate data stores. This has been a challenge even within Salesforce’s own products. Last year, Salesforce introduced a Customer Data Platform (CDP) called Data Cloud, which includes a real-time data layer named Genie. Kahlon elaborated on its significance: “Data Cloud’s strength lies in its understanding and storage of Salesforce metadata. This native integration allows for real-time actions within Salesforce, enhancing the ability to aggregate, reason over, and act on data.” For example, when a customer contacts a bank, Data Cloud can compile their ATM usage, website interactions, and recent support cases, providing the agent with a comprehensive view to better assist the customer. Leveraging Metadata for AI Salesforce’s metadata layer, which has been fine-tuned over two decades, gives it a distinct advantage. Kahlon noted: “This metadata-based architecture allows us to create meaningful AI algorithms that are natively consumed within Salesforce, enabling visualization and action based on real-time data.” This is crucial for training the underlying Large Language Model (LLM) accurately, ensuring generated content is contextually grounded and trustworthy. Kahlon emphasized: “The trust layer is essential. We need to ensure no hallucination or toxicity in the LLM’s responses, and that communications align with our company’s values.” Real-Time Data and API Management Data Cloud’s ability to connect to other data sources like Snowflake without duplicating data is a significant benefit. Kahlon commented: “Duplicating data is not desirable. Customers need real-time access to the actual source of truth.” On the integration front, APIs have simplified connecting applications and data sources. However, managing API sprawl is crucial. Kahlon explained: “Standardizing API use and publishing them in a centralized portal is essential for reusability and consistency. Low-code platforms and connectors are becoming increasingly relevant, enabling business users to access data without relying on IT.” Automation and AI The demand for automation is growing, and low-code tools are vital. Instead of integration experts being overwhelmed, organizations should establish Centers for Excellence to focus on creating reusable connectors and automations. Kahlon added: “Companies need low-code tools to involve more business users in the transformation journey without slowing down due to legacy applications.” In the future, AI may further ease the workload on integration specialists. MuleSoft recently introduced an API Experience Hub to make APIs discoverable, and AI might eventually help monitor execution logs and manage APIs more effectively. Kahlon concluded: “AI could help developers find and use APIs efficiently, enhancing security and governance while simplifying access to data across the organization.” Like Related Posts Salesforce OEM AppExchange Expanding its reach beyond CRM, Salesforce.com has launched a new service called AppExchange OEM Edition, aimed at non-CRM service providers.

Utilizing a CDP

In the current digital landscape, customer data stands as a pivotal asset for organizations aiming to craft personalized and targeted experiences. Yet, the primary challenge for utilizing a CDP lies in the aggregation and consolidation of this data, often dispersed across a multitude of sources. This is where the significance of Customer Data Platforms (CDPs) becomes evident. Configured for optimal use, your data is good to go. A CDP functions as a software system that integrates customer data from various sources, encompassing marketing automation, AdTech, commerce, service, analytics, procurement, production, logistics, compliance, and more. The consolidated data is housed within a unified platform for analysis and marketing purposes. By serving as a single source of truth, CDPs empower organizations to create more pertinent, real-time, contextual, and compliant experiences for their customers. Operating as a connector within existing tech stacks, CDPs play a crucial role in filtering and binding siloed and fragmented customer data from diverse teams. This results in actionable insights, more profitable interactions, and a foundation for the growth of customer value. CDPs extend their utility beyond marketing, offering advantages to sectors like healthcare, where they can unify patient data, eliminate data silos, and furnish timely information to enhance patient outcomes. By addressing prevalent challenges such as unconnected data, non-optimized work efforts, operational inefficiencies, and encumbered time-to-market, CDPs prove instrumental in fostering organizational success. It’s important to highlight that a CDP is not a substitute for a CRM solution, especially in large enterprise settings. Integration with critical data-source systems beyond the martech stack is essential for extracting hidden value from the organization’s data. Utilizing a CDP As the digital marketing industry navigates the transition to a cookieless future, and first-party data takes precedence, the value of CDPs is set to grow. However, to unlock their full potential, the adoption of CDPs should extend beyond marketers. CDPs must evolve into interconnected sources of truth across all departments and interactions, both physical and digital. By functioning as cohesive data aggregators, they enable organizations to harness vast volumes of customer-impacting data and insights, delivering optimized, hyper-personalized, and differentiating experiences.

The Evolution of Salesforce Data Cloud

The Evolution of Salesforce Data Cloud Salesforce’s journey to Data Cloud started with its acquisition of Krux in 2016, which was later rebranded as Salesforce DMP. This transformation gained momentum in 2019 when Salesforce introduced its customer data platform (CDP), incorporating Salesforce DMP. Subsequent acquisitions of Datorama, MuleSoft, Tableau, and Evergage (now Interaction Studio) enriched Salesforce CDP’s functionality, creating today’s robust Data Cloud. Understanding Customer Data Platforms (CDPs) A customer data platform (CDP) aggregates customer data from multiple channels to create a unified customer profile, enabling deeper insights and real-time personalization. A CDP serves as a centralized customer data repository, merging isolated databases from marketing, service, and ecommerce to enable easy access to customer insights. Salesforce’s “State of Marketing” report highlights the impact of CDPs, noting that 78% of high-performing businesses use CDPs, compared to 58% of underperformers. This analysis explores the evolution of CDPs and their role in transforming customer relationship management (CRM) and the broader tech ecosystem, turning customer data into real-time interactions. Key Functions of a Customer Data Platform (CDP) CDPs perform four main functions: data collection, data harmonization, data activation, and data insights. Origins of Customer Data Platforms (CDPs) CDPs evolved as the latest advancement in customer data management, driven by the need for a unified marketing data repository. Unlike earlier tools that were often limited to specific channels, CDPs enable real-time data synchronization and cross-platform engagement. Advances in AI, automation, and machine learning have made this level of segmentation and personalization attainable. The Future of Customer Data Platforms (CDPs) The next generation of CDPs, like Salesforce’s Data Cloud, supports real-time engagement across all organizational functions—sales, service, marketing, and commerce. Data Cloud continuously harmonizes and updates customer data, integrating seamlessly with Salesforce products to process over 100 billion records daily. With Data Cloud, organizations gain: Benefits of a Customer Data Platform (CDP) CDPs provide comprehensive insights into customer interactions, supporting personalization and cross-selling. Beyond segmentation, they serve as user-friendly platforms for audience analysis and data segmentation, simplifying day-to-day data management. Data Cloud allows organizations to transform customer data into personalized, seamless experiences across every customer touchpoint. Leading brands like Ford and L’Oréal utilize Data Cloud to deliver connected, real-time interactions that enhance customer engagement. The Need for Customer Data Platforms (CDPs) CDPs address critical data management challenges by unifying disjointed data sources, resolving customer identities, and enabling seamless segmentation. These capabilities empower companies to maximize the potential of their customer data. CDP vs. CRM CDPs are an evolution of traditional CRM, focusing on real-time, highly personalized interactions. While CRMs store known customer data, CDPs like Data Cloud enable real-time engagement, making it the world’s first real-time CRM by powering Salesforce’s Customer 360. Selecting the Right CDP When choosing a CDP, the focus often falls into two areas: insights and engagement. An insights-oriented CDP prioritizes data integration and management, while an engagement-focused CDP leverages data for real-time personalization. Data Cloud combines both, integrating real-time CDP capabilities to deliver unmatched insights and engagement across digital platforms. Content updated October 2024.

CDP Salesforce

What is a CDP in Salesforce? A customer data platform (CDP) is an application that gathers, organizes and enriches data from multiple sources, while being marketer-centric, versus sales/service-centric like a CRM. It is a key enabler to organizations that want to maximize return on all the data they have collected and own around their customers. The CDP combines all the data from all the sources in real time so you can make hyper-personalized offers and experiences that feel like magic. This means connecting all the customer data back to email engines, demand-side platforms, and content management systems. What is the difference between Salesforce Genie and CDP? SFDC CDP follows the audience segmentation + data activation protocols. Salesforce Genie allows for data unification and identity resolution. Is CDP same as data cloud? Data Cloud shares the same purpose and benefits that CDPs deliver – however Data Cloud is not the same as the technology that was formerly Salesforce CDP.

CDPs connect customer data so every team has insight into how a customer interacts with you on every platform.

Salesforce and LiveRamp Integration

Salesforce Marketing Cloud empowers you to maximize every customer interaction by providing tools to manage the customer journey across all channels. With Salesforce’s Customer Data Platform (CDP), you get a comprehensive view of each customer through unified profiles. This platform integrates data from the world’s #1 CRM, creating a single source of truth. Salesforce and LiveRamp Integration. Partnership with LiveRamp Salesforce Customer Data Platform users can leverage LiveRamp’s Distribution application to deliver their customer audiences to LiveRamp. This enables the orchestration of targeted, people-based advertising campaigns powered by RampID across 500+ publishers, including walled garden platforms. A walled garden platform, also known as a closed ecosystem or closed platform, is a software system that restricts access to content, applications, and media. The provider of the platform has complete control over what is shared, and users can only access what the provider allows. Walled gardens are often used in the marketing and tech industries, and can be used to improve cybersecurity by isolating users from external threats. Benefits for LiveRamp Customers: Key Features: Earlier this week, Dreamforce 2022 returned to San Francisco, where Salesforce introduced its new real-time data platform, Genie. LiveRamp was highlighted as a key partner in Genie’s launch, playing a crucial role in delivering highly personalized customer experiences by enriching and activating data across the advertising ecosystem. Salesforce users can now access LiveRamp technology through the LiveRamp Distribution App, available on the AppExchange. Marketers utilize platforms like Genie as their single source of truth to drive personalization. LiveRamp Distribution equips Salesforce customers with tools to build more accurate audiences powered by RampID, a people-based identifier. This integration allows direct access to over 500 platforms and partners for activation, enabling impactful, personalized, and relevant marketing programs across the ecosystem. All activations through LiveRamp ensure privacy by avoiding the sharing of hashed or raw directly identifiable personal data with any activation platform. “Customer data platforms are transforming the advertising ecosystem to be more customer-first. By providing a single, real-time view of the customer and centralizing customer knowledge, Salesforce Genie delivers unparalleled consistency and effectiveness across all customer touchpoints throughout the media ecosystem,” said Travis Clinger, SVP of Activations and Addressability, LiveRamp. According to Salesforce’s Fifth Edition of the State of the Connected Consumer report, 62% of respondents expect companies to anticipate their needs. However, data fragmentation across the ecosystem hinders this personalized customer experience. Brands require advanced segmentation and activation capabilities to successfully engage customers with the right message at the right moment on the right channel. Our partnership empowers marketers to take more control over their data, offering capabilities such as: Supporting CDPs with Activation To remain competitive and grow, businesses must find innovative ways to engage their customers and deliver personalized, relevant messages through preferred channels.
