4、)22 Table of Contents3|AI for Personalization Blueprint It has never been more important for your brand to master the art and science of personalization.The vast majority of B2C and B2B consumers expect sophisticated personalization from brands.A full 86%of B2B consumers expect you to understand the

5、ir personal preferences,says Gartner.And 71%of B2C consumers expect the same.Not to mention,they expect you to act on it to deliver highly personalized experiences.Theres just one(very big)problem:Of the companies doing personalization,most still personalize based on simple pre-defined rules.(“If yo

6、u are X,you will see Y.”)Pre-defined rules used to work well enough in the early days of digital experiences.Back then,you didnt have much user data to work with.You could tell what someone clicked on or visited or boughtand that was about it.Limited data meant limited personalization options.So,lim

7、ited rules werent a problem.Today,this couldnt be further from the truth.Companies have a flood of data on users from a huge number of sources.Consumer interactions take place across more touchpoints than ever.And we have a breathtaking number of ways to personalize content and products based on thi

8、s data.These conditions make pre-defined rules woefully inadequate for modern personalization.In fact,pre-defined rules have a few fatal flaws that can actively work against you:Why Artificial Intelligence Is a Must for Personalization1.Theyre static.Pre-defined rules dont change.They dont respond t

9、o new data.They dont adapt to evolving consumer needs and behaviors.If your customers change,pre-defined rules dont.As a result,they often create an outdated and ineffective customer experience.For instance,you might use static,pre-defined rules to display your latest content first on your website.T

10、hats a one-size-fits-all approach that completely fails to take into account a customers content preferences or display content based on their consumption habits.2.They cant get full value out of your data.Most companies have a wealth of data that can create better personalization.But its hard to le

11、verage this data with pre-defined rules.Every new data source used requires more rules to create better personalization.Few teams have the bandwidth to create rules indefinitely to improve their personalization.3.They dont scale.Every pre-defined rule is manually built and manually maintained.Every

12、pre-defined rule created introduces more complexity,conflicts,and complications.The more complexity,the higher cost of resources and time to manage personalization.That makes it impossible to effectively scale a pre-defined rules-based approach.These flaws are why top brands are turning to AI for pe

13、rsonalization.AI has many ways to overcome the limitations of pre-defined personalization rules.It operates in a fundamentally different way than pre-defined rules.With pre-defined rules,you manually define and create the personalization rules.With AI,you specify your personalization goal,and it fig

14、ures out which rules to follow to achieve it.86%of B2B consumers expect you to understand their personal preferences.71%of B2C consumers expect the same.4|AI for Personalization Blueprint AI dynamically and automatically personalizes content and products.It also can adapt and improve on its own over

15、 time in response to changing data and behaviors in real time.AI uses massive amounts of your data from different sources to provide recommendations.If you have a large amount of high-quality,accurate data,it can rapidly improve your performance.AI scales as your personalization program grows since

16、it doesnt rely on manual,pre-defined rules.What AI is and what it is capable of doing.What AI use cases are available for personalization,and how to find your brands specific use cases.What AI tools and technologies can create real business outcomes for you.That means:In fact,AI can:Segment users ba

17、sed on their particular dynamic behaviors and interactions.Deliver highly personalized digital experiences exactly tailored to individuals.That includes personalizing based on needs,wants,and behaviors learned over time.Increase customer engagement and satisfaction with truly intelligent content and

18、 product recommendations,which ultimately increases revenue for your business.Not to mention,you dont have to build your own AI models with leading solutions.Instead,you can use out-of-the-box AI personalization to see return-on-investment(ROI)fast.According to McKinsey,organizations that have imple

19、mented personalization see a 10-15%increase in revenue.That benefit is even bigger in direct-to-consumer businesses,with personalization providing up to a 25%lift in revenue for these types of companies.Maybe thats why Gartner predicts 80%of all customer contact will take place via AI by 2030.And it

20、s definitely why you should consider using AI in your personalization efforts.The good news is:Thats never been easier to do.Powerful AI is now accessible to professionals in marketing,sales,and more.Enterprise developers who dont have AI experience can also deploy the technology.You and your team c

21、an now operationalize AI at scale while mitigating the risks that can arise when building and deploying AI models.AI also makes it possible to do effective omnichannel personalization at a 1-to-1 level.That means you can personalize the entire user journey across different devices,allowing you to co

24、nalization Blueprint To grasp whats possible with AI,you need to understand the technology.But dont worry.You dont need to get a Ph.D.in the subject to do that.All you need is a simple,useful definition of AI.That will allow you to see how its differentand much smarterthan the technology you use tod

25、ay.Lets dive in.What Is AI?If you ask 10 experts to define“AI,”youll get 10 different definitions given the complexity of the subject.Our favorite is a simple one:AI is the science of making machines smart.By“being smart,”these machines,in turn,enhance human knowledge and capabilities.So,what does“b

26、eing smart”actually mean?AI is smart because it can determine its own pathways to achieving an overall goal.To illustrate what we mean,lets look at the traditional software you use today.That software can only do what you tell it to do.You give it rules and instructions.It follows those rules and ex

27、ecutes those instructions to the letter.Lets look at an example:Say you want to recommend new products,services,or content to users that visit your website.Heres what that typically looks like:1.You manually segment users into broad categories.You base these categories on a few simple factors.For in

28、stance,the users job title,industry,and whether or not theyve taken an action on your site.2.You then create a set of static personalization rules.Those rules match products and content to users depending on their category.These rules are basic.But despite that,they get complicated quickly.Lets say

29、your users can select one of five job titles and one of four industries.Thats 20 different possible combinations of title and industry alone.3.You set your static personalization rules live.Then,you monitor performance across all your different categories.As you analyze performance,you make manual c

30、hanges to rules based on the data.These changes take a lot of time and effort.This type of personalization is probably better than no personalization.But its not very sophisticated.Its highly labor intensive.And its really inefficient.Every step of the way,youre in charge of giving the machine instr

31、uctions and telling the machine what to do.And it follows them without deviation.Its like having an army of hard-working interns who follow your instructions literally.They dont offer new ideas.They dont innovate new approaches.They just follow commands.This is a huge missed opportunity to create a

32、deeper connection with customers,build a meaningful experience,and build trust and loyalty with consumers by showing them you understand their needs and preferences.A Quick Introduction to AI for PersonalizationAI is“the science of making machines smart.”6|AI for Personalization Blueprint A Quick In

33、troduction to AI for PersonalizationThankfully,AI-powered personalization is fundamentally different from traditional personalization.Lets stick with our example from above.With AI,we can fundamentally transform whats possible with personalization:1.AI can segment users for you based on a much large

34、r range of attributes and signals.It can learn about your catalog of products and content.It can learn about how users interact with those catalogs.It can segment users dynamically based on their attributes,preferences,and behaviors.And it can segment them into complicated categories without extra w

35、ork.2.AI can then personalize content,services,and products to users in real time based on a legion of factors and attributes.And AI doesnt just personalize based on individual factors.It can also personalize in different ways for the same individual based on channel(ads,email,social,etc.).3.AI can

36、adapt personalization to changing customer interactions automatically.You dont need to manually update or change rules.You dont need to stay on top of mountains of data.AI does it all for you.Just one example:AI is perfect for brands that experience seasonality since it can adjust recommendations ba

37、sed on spikes in,for instance,hotel bookings for certain destinations based on the weather in a given location.Now,thats impressive on its own.But heres the real AI secret sauce:AI learns each time it tries to achieve your personalization goals,such as:Optimizing for users with no interaction histor

38、y.Increasing overall engagement and average order values.Boosting time spent on page.Increasing time spent viewing video content.Surfacing new items to improve upsell and cross-sell opportunities.And more.In fact,each time you use AI for personalization,it learns more about what your customers like

39、best.For example,lets say you have a new user who consumes your streaming content across devices.Over time,AI learns that this user likes watching TV on mobile devices and full movies at home.AI then automatically adjusts recommendations for each channel based on that.In another example,lets say you

40、 are a hotel chain that wants to increase customer lifetime value.You can use AI to offer highly personalized property and room recommendations to customers.As AI learns more about your customers behavior,it can use that information to personalize upsells and cross-sells while the customer is stayin

41、g at a property.In every case,AI isnt following the playbook from the last time you personalized an experience for a customer.Its learning from past engagements and improving its recommendations using a new and improved playbook.Thats why AI is so powerful:It has the ability to unlock exponential pe

42、rformance gains over time the more you use it.AI is like having an army of geniuses at the top of their game working independently for you 24/7.Traditional software using traditional personalization approaches simply cant compete.And neither can companies using traditional software and approaches.In

43、 fact,more than half(60%)of consumers say they will likely become repeat buyers after a personalized shopping experience with a retailer,according to Twilio.7|AI for Personalization Blueprint A Quick Introduction to AI for PersonalizationMachine Learning and the Core Types of AIWeve established why

44、AI is much differentand much betterthan traditional personalization.Now,lets define a few final ways of thinking about AI that are important to fully grasp the subject.The term“artificial intelligence”is a category of technology,not a single tool.Its a broad suite of techniques that leverage smart m

45、achines in different ways.These tools rely on“machine learning”to work their magic.Machine learning is the primary subset of artificial intelligence technology.Its how AI tools achieve goals on their own and learn from their efforts.There are a couple of steps to make a machine smart.First,humans ha

46、ve to train the machine.We show the machine data,then train it to recognize patterns in that data.Using those patterns,the machine learns how to achieve goals.Once fully trained,it can recognize those patterns and achieve those goals in the wild.It can also then train itself on what it learns rather

47、 than returning to its human teachers.Now,machine learning isnt the only term youll hear in discussions of AI.Youll also hear terms like:Deep learning Reinforcement learning Neural networks Topic modeling Robotics And many,many moreThese terms can be useful to learn.But you dont need to know all the

48、 jargon to understand how and where to apply AI in your business or to see real business value from the technology.In fact,you only need to know that there are four core applications of AI:Language,Vision,Speech,and Vertical-Focused.Language AI.This is the ability of machines to understand and gener

49、ate written and spoken words.Language AI technologies and terms you may encounter include:Machine translation.Sentiment analysis.Natural language generation.Text analysis and summarization.Natural language processing.An example of Language AI in your everyday life is Gmails Smart Compose feature.You

50、 type an email,and Gmail predicts how to complete your next sentence.Vision AI.This is the ability of machines to analyze and understand data from still images and videos.In essence,vision AI seeks to automate tasks that the human visual system can naturally do.Vision AI technologies and terms you m

51、ay encounter include:Object recognition.Emotion generation.Image generation.Optical Character Recognition(OCR).Video generation.An example of Vision AI in your everyday life is the facial recognition that unlocks your iPhone.Vision AI determines if the face it is seeing is yours and,if it is,grants

52、you access to the device.Speech AI.This is the ability of AI to recognize,process,and emulate human voices and speech.Speech AI technologies and terms include:Voice recognition.Speech-to-speech translation.Dialogue modeling.Machine learning is the primary subset of artificial intelligence technology

53、.Its how AI tools achieve goals on their own and learn from their efforts.8|AI for Personalization Blueprint A Quick Introduction to AI for PersonalizationAn example of Speech AI is when transcription software recognizes which speakers are saying which words,allowing AI to label their conversation a

54、ppropriately.Vertical-Focused AI.Vertical-focused AI is artificial intelligence designed to perform advanced predictive functions for specific use cases,industries,or verticals.Examples of vertical-focused AI include:Personalization.Anomaly detection.Forecasting.Fraud detection.Pattern recognition.A

55、n example of Vertical-Focused AI is Amazon product recommendations.Amazon learns from what youve bought in the past on its site,as well as what other users like you are interested in,and recommends other products you are likely to want to buy.While there are literally hundreds of use cases for AI-po

56、wered personalization,they all fall under one or more of these four core applications.Now,lets find one or more use cases for your work and business.Amazon learns from what youve bought in the past on its site,as well as what other users like you are interested in,and recommends other products you a

57、re likely to want to buy.9|AI for Personalization Blueprint Finding AI use cases doesnt need to be rocket science.And you dont have to personalize everything with AI all at once.To start,all you have to do is figure out how AI can help improve your personalization efforts.To do that,youll want to st

58、art by looking at what you and your team do every day,week,month,quarter,etc.Also,list out what business objectives you and your team are trying to accomplish over these time frames.For each of the tasks or objectives on this list,ask yourself the three questions below.Is it data-driven?Are you usin

59、g a lot of data to make any decisions related to personalization?Or do you have access to a lot of data you could use to make personalization decisions?If data is used(or exists)to help you perform a task,it may be a good candidate for using AI to do it better and faster.Were not talking about strai

60、ghtforward,rules-based decisioning.Were instead focused on decisioning that requires better data analysis.Keep in mind:Youll want to look at areas where you generate a lot of data because AI often needs lots of data to function.That could include data from different locations,business units,catalogs

61、,interaction data from your website(views,clicks,etc.),item metadata(details on new articles,products,etc.),user metadata(age,location,subscription details,etc.),or customer sources.Is it repetitive?Do you do the same thing over and over again to accomplish the task?Is there a process to accomplish

62、the business objective that you can define steps for?AI excels at augmenting or automating tasks that have standardized,repeatable steps.You also dont need to automate an entire repetitive task with AI.You can look at making individual steps of the process better and faster using AI.Is it making a p

63、rediction?Does your task involve trying to predict something?If youre doing personalization,you better believe it does.Personalization is all about making predictions.Predictions about what users want to see,consume,buy,and do.And AI is uniquely suited to making predictions that are delivered in rea

64、l time.Look for predictions you try to makeor would like to makeminute-by-minute.You dont have to answer“yes”to all three questions to have an AI use case.Answer“yes”to one or two questions,and the task is a likely use case for AI.Answer“yes”to all three questions,and it definitely is.How to Find AI

65、 Use Cases in PersonalizationAll you have to do is figure out how AI can supercharge select tasks you do all the time.10|AI for Personalization Blueprint How to Find AI Use Cases in PersonalizationFor more ideas,look at this list of common use cases for AI in personalization that top brands are usin

92、e rabid about watching matches,buying merchandise,following their favorite teams and players online,consuming content,reading articles,and engaging with the leagues app.Personalizing the fan experience to stoke passions and increase engagement is Bundesligas mission.And it would be complex enough if

93、 each fan loved just one team.But the average Bundesliga fan follows four clubs out of the 36.That creates thousands and thousands of possible individual fan profiles to cater to across multiple platforms,channels,and content types.Thats why Bundesliga turned to AI from Amazon Personalize to create

94、an individualized,regionalized,and personalized experience for each and every fan.The league deployed Amazon Personalize to generate individualized content for millions of active users in the Bundesliga Official App.Using Personalize,the app now recommends individualized content and notifications fo
