Understanding exactly what your customers want
Each brand at its very core is trying to solve a problem for their customers. With time, the problems as well as consumer motivation keep evolving. But in a country like India, the customers themselves can be from a varied demographic. Vitasta shows us how understanding your customers becomes really important which also creates the need to directly initiate a conversation with them.
“I'm talking about that level of personalization, or the problem statements are so unique, that it becomes really, really difficult for us to augment it down to that level, or go down to that level of granularity and understand, like, what is this guy's problem in life? And how can I solve this problem” - Vitasta
Using technology to smoothly initiate two way conversations for marketing
With so many messaging and media platforms, it becomes essential that brands use them thoughtfully without overburdening their customers with messages. Bringing a set strategy into place is key to great messaging and Vitasta further explains this process.
“A solid customer data platform, in the backend, where a lot of this information, this enrichment of consumer information is present. And then you create an omni-channel engagement strategy. You have your website, you have an app, but you also try to get consumers to have two-way conversations with you, typically on messaging apps”. - Vitasta
