The article discusses the often unclear link between customer acquisition and long-term value, emphasizing the need for better integration between marketing platforms and customer data systems. It highlights the shift from pixel-based tracking to server-to-server connections, which enhances the effectiveness of acquisition strategies by creating a feedback loop from post-conversion insights back to pre-acquisition targeting. Additionally, five key drivers are identified to leverage CRM and CDP data for full-funnel success, focusing on metrics that measure customer quality rather than just conversions, ultimately improving the outcomes of marketing investments.
The solution to that disconnect is deeper integration between marketing platforms and customer data systems.
By connecting CRM and CDP systems to media platforms through APIs and audience data sharing, you are optimizing not just for conversions but also for the quality and long-term value of every customer acquired.
Post-conversion data provides valuable insights into customer behavior, engagement and long-term value, useful for ongoing optimization.
Incorporating actual or projected LTV allows businesses to make more informed investment decisions.
