Overview
Interact is an interactive engine that targets personalized offers to visitors of inbound marketing channels. You can configure Interact to be behavioral, strictly event based, situational, strategic, and so on. Interact is a module within the IBM® suite of enterprise marketing management tools, and is integrated with IBM® EMM.
Interact exploits both online and offline data—in-depth historical knowledge of customers as well as current customer activities—to create real-time customer interactions that increase sales, build relationships, generate leads, increase conversion rates, optimize channel usage, and lower attrition. You can establish the business rules and sales or service strategies that drive real-time interactions, and modify them to reflect the continuous learning from your marketing efforts.
Fully integrated with the IBM® suite, Interact gives your marketing organization the ability to coordinate real-time inbound customer treatment strategies with your traditional outbound campaigns. With Interact, you leverage the power of IBM® EMM to enhance your real-time marketing efforts in several ways:
*
Use information from all of your customer touchpoints — web, call center, in-store, branch, and so on — to develop a rich understanding of customers and prospects, create a consistent brand, and maximize customer communications.
*
Engage known and anonymous visitors, consider behavior, and personalize interactions with them by making cross-sell offers, selecting editorial content, offering appropriate service options, and coordinating banner messages.
*
Leverage the power of your contact center for increased revenue generation and customer retention. Provide smarter interactive voice response (IVR) navigation, on-hold message selection, instant offers for retention and cross-selling, prioritization of offers, and website intervention (such as chat or VoIP).
Interact lets you control and fine-tune the real-time, analytical content delivered to your touchpoint systems. Your strategies can include factors you consider important. These strategies can drive the response to specific customer actions, driving personalized content from an instant offer button on a website, to a cross-sell opportunity at a call center. Interact gives you control over critical online selling, marketing, and service strategies — and the ability to respond quickly to opportunities or changes in your marketplace.
