Data challenges often torment customer-facing teams. With the rapid advancements in AI, overcoming these data hurdles has become more urgent than ever. To truly unlock the potential of hyper-personalisation, businesses must centralise data collection and move beyond siloed approaches. Join this session to learn how JLR is consolidating customer data from various sources to create a unified customer view. This comprehensive approach enables a deeper understanding of customer behaviour, preferences, and needs, leading to significantly more effective personalisation strategies.

The team from JLR will discuss how historically personalisation has been viewed through a narrow lens, primarily using data collected within marketing-led domains. However, true hyper-personalisation demands a broader perspective. They will explore how to leverage data across the entire commercial domain and integrate it from broader enterprise sources to drive exceptional personalised experiences and enhance decision-making.

Key Discussion Points:

Personalised AI can transform content creation by analysing real-time data from social media activity and user-specific buying behaviours, allowing marketers to create highly tailored content for specific groups. This can lead to enhanced SEO, overcome writer’s block, and can prove to be incredibly cost-effective. However, while AI brings valuable efficiencies to content creation, it also poses some challenges that make its implementation more complex. AI generated content can lack the emotional depth that human writers bring, which can lead to messaging that feels impersonal. Additionally, AI is highly data-dependent; if it’s trained on outdated data, it may produce content that is not only irrelevant but potentially misleading, creating quality concerns.

In this session, we’ll explore practical strategies for tackling these issues, focusing on how to:

• Ensure accuracy and relevance with human supervision: Discover why human oversight is non-negotiable for maintaining high-quality, impactful content
• Train AI on brand assets: Learn how to “teach” AI your unique brand voice to ensure consistency.·
• Establish style guides and “Do Not Use” lists: Implement clear guidelines to control AI output and maintain brand integrity

As organisations scale their personalisation efforts, a fundamental question emerges: what is the optimal operating model? The choice between a centralised and federated approach significantly impacts everything from execution speed to brand consistency. Getting this right is crucial for translating personalisation strategy into tangible business results.

This session will provide a comprehensive exploration of these two dominant personalisation operating models, examining their inherent strengths, weaknesses, and the strategic implications of each.

Key discussion points include:

Understanding what resonates with different audiences, through various messaging tactics, at precise moments in their customer journey, is paramount. However, the path from personalisation strategy to measurable success is fraught with complexities. Data fragmentation across a multitude of channels creates an incomplete and disjointed view of the customer, making it incredibly challenging to accurately track individual journeys.
