Being relevant for your customers, communicating on a personal level with them and make them feel like you really know them. That is how you build long-term relationships with them. In theory … Yet in reality a lot of ecommerce companies don’t know how to do this or are struggling with the data and tools they have.

And finally, based on each profile or segment of profiles you build automated journeys to personalise the experience of your browsers, one-time buyers and repeat customers. If you think you are ready for this and you want to start with real personalisations, then we invite you to join us in this interactive Masterclass in which we will bring you:

1. A step by step plan for setting up a personalization strategy for the future. 

2. The top 5 personalizations every Shopware store should apply to increase conversions and to better engage with customers.

3. Successful case studies of ecommerce companies that are personalization champions.

4. Insights in what Predictive AI can do to personalize campaigns and drive conversions even further.
