Your Website Should BeAs Personalized AsYour Email Marketing

a presentation by 

Page 2: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

That is to say,the same experience for all visitors.

Which is strange.

WEBSITES OFFER A GENERIC BROWSING EXPERIENCE

Page 3: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

email marketing, lead generation, media buying.  

Which means you're aware of the importance of personalization.

So why you don't implement itin your most important conversion tool?

YOU PERSONALIZE YOUR:

Page 4: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

your most important conversion toolis your website.

IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING,

Page 5: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

has a profound impact on engagement and conversion.

It dramatically increases both.

PERSONALIZATION

Page 6: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

remain just that - anonymous.

They don't convert.

95% OF ANONYMOUS WEBSITE VISITORS

Why only 5% of anonymous visitors choose to"introduce" themselves by leaving their details?

Page 7: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

Visitors don't find you relevant for them.

No need to be insulted;no one product or service can be relevant for all.

1. IRRELEVANCY

Page 8: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

Your paid media strategy was to hook them,no matter what.

That's very shortsighted and will backfire.

2. FALSE PROMISES

Page 9: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

At various stages of the funnel, buyers havedifferent needs and willingness to convert.

Misreading the above will lead to almost-certain decline of conversion attempts on your behalf.

3. WRONG END OF THE FUNNEL

Page 10: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

No need to re-mention the short attention spanof web users, right?

Clunky navigation, long loading times,unintuitive UX - folks gonna bounce. 

4. BAD WEBSITE

Page 11: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

No one wants to admit it,but thinking about it logically:

100% of products CANNOT be amazing.

5. LOUSY PRODUCT

Page 12: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

but it's important to be aware of them,nonetheless.

THE LAST 2 REASONS ARE OUT OF YOUR CONTROL

Page 13: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

Sometimes folks are just not in the mood to convert.

Ton of research is being put intotrying to circumvent the human factor,to no avail.

6. NOT IN THE MOOD

CLICK HEREor

Page 14: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

The FOMO of the online world.

We all carry the blame for this,even though none of us is ever sellingpersonal information.

7. FEAR OF LEAVING MAIL

Page 15: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

From the get-go, so many hurdles to overcomein the path to conversion.

How to expand your relevancy?

How do you customize your offering to resonatewith a larger segment of the audience?

THE PATH TO CONVERSION

Page 16: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

                           PERSONALIZATION.

PERSONALIZATION.PERSONALIZATION.

PERSONALIZAT.PERSONAL

THE ANSWER IS

Page 17: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

It is all about figuring out who your audience is,segmenting it to the highest resolution possibleand answering each sub-audience's needs.

PERSONALIZATION IS THE ART OF RELEVANCY

Page 18: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

email marketing suffered from terrible open ratesand even worse clickthrough rates.

Thanks to personalization,2016 MailChimp benchmark stats:- Open Rate > 20%- Clickthrough rate is in the high 2s to low 3sIncredible.

BACK IN THE DAY,

Page 19: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

Companies have internalized that sendingrandom stuffin the hope that something would stick is ridiculous.

Driving random traffic to your website and providing a generic website experiencein the hope that visitors would convert,is no less ridiculous.

RANDOM = RIDICULOUS

Page 20: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

With email, marketers have taught themselvesto be relevant.

Every detail and aspect is tested and considered to improve relevancy.

So,why marketers don't apply the same methodologiesto websites?

RELEVANT = EFFECTIVE

Page 21: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

A site that is pulling all the stopsto be as relevant as possible to each and every visitor,anonymous or not.

PERSONALIZED WEBSITE

personalize your website

Page 22: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

we aren't personalizing the website itself.

Rather,we personalizethe visitor experience of the website.

BUT,

Page 23: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

to make the distinction between:

Personalization                        Relevancy-Driven  Tricks                                        Personalization

BTW,they both work!

THIS WOULD BE A GOOD TIME

Page 24: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

is to track your visitors' IPand greet them with the appropriate"Good Morning" or "Good Afternoon".

Another is to distinguish between first-time to returning visitors and pop a "Welcome!"or "Nice to see you again". 

It's fun, and visitors will appreciate it; even if for a millisecond.

PERSONALIZATION TRICK

goes deeper.

It is:suggesting, recommending, presentingthe most relevant content or offerto match each visitor's specific persona, characteristics, needs or stage in the funnelbased on their data and on-site behavior.

RELEVANCY-DRIVEN PERSONALIZATION

Page 26: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

Recommending an insightful articleshould be done at a different pointin the natural browsing flowthan offering a product demo.based on their on-site behavior.

TIMING IS CRUCIAL

Page 27: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

provides each and everyvisitor

the most relevantexperience for them.

PERSONALIZED WEBSITE

Page 28: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

A B2B purchase carries a much heavier weightthan a B2C purchase.

Thus,a B2B website visitor is of greater importancethan a B2C visitor;

no offence, Cs.

PERSONALIZATION IS MORE CRUCIAL FOR B2B

Page 29: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

There's more cash at stake

Need to deal with various decision makers

Need to deal with various stages of the funnel

Need to intersect both

ALSO,

Page 30: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

Design wise,elements as headlines, CTA buttons and imagescan be tweaked based on the traffic's source.

Content wise,ideally,the site's entire content should be dynamic.

HOW TO PERSONALIZE YOUR WEBSITE

Page 31: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

There are limitations to personalization. We can't, yet, customize the entire site,in real time.

The next best thing, for now?

Matching each visitorwith the most relevant content for them.

PADDLING BACK FROM THE IDEAL TO REALITY

Page 32: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

The prevailing solution online is 'popups',offering you to read an article,download a whitepaper or an eBook,register to a webinar.

Popups are also used for ads; that's true.And annoying.

HOW TO MATCH VISITORS WITH CONTENT?

Page 33: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

WHAT'S RELEVANT ABOUT POPUPS?

Most of the time,absolutely nothing.

So that's missing the whole personalization point,isn't it?

In one word,yup.

Page 34: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

ANONYMOUS VISITORS ARE PEOPLE TOO

The same tactics you useto personalize your email marketing,apply to your website.

Provide a personalized visitor experience,even to anonymous ones.

onsite behavior:pages visited, time on topic, scrolling & movements

engagement:new vs. returning visitor

Page 38: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

AND ARE FULLY AUTOMATED

Machine-learning continuously performscrowd behavior & semantical analysis.  

Page 39: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

LET'S TALK ABOUT ANONYMOUS VISITORS

Even anonymous visitors "share"a lot of telling information about themselves.

  

Page 40: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

JUST NEED TO KNOW HOW AND WHERE TO COLLECT IT

Google Analytics,or any other marketing automation tool,is a good starting point.

  

Page 41: Your Website Should Be As Personalized As Your Email Marketing

INFORMATION ANONYMOUS VISITORS SHARE:

- What device they are on- What browser, and version, they are using- Their IP- The time of day at their location- Referral source: search, paid media, email, link in a       third-party site- Their search query (in some cases)

LET'S LOOK AT AN EXAMPLE:

I'm on the SMB product page of a marketing automation solution website.I leave the website, but return a couple of days later.

A smart personalization software will do 1+1 and recommend me a case-studyabout a mid-size company that increased their lead generation by 80%,using this product.

This is exactly the content I'm looking for - how a company similar to minebenefitted from this product - and I want to read it.

Assuming the content is gated - as it should be - I'm converting, with a smile.
