What is Omni Channel Marketing?
It is an ecommerce marketing automation built for growing ecommerce businesses. Through Omni Channel Marketing, customers can reach out in the way they prefer. They can choose email , SMS messages, web push notifications, Facebook messenger, Whatsapp or combine them into the workflow.
What are the advantages of different channels in one platform?
First, The main advantage is having a single, centralized, and synchronized customer profile. It prevents customers receiving irrelevant and repetitive messages in different platforms because it is synchronized. With this tool, it follows a sequence/flow when communicating with customers.

For example: we start communicating with through an email.

If Robert does ignore our email then we maybe send that Facebook Messenger message then maybe we send a push notification and finally send text message. Second, providing customers with options to choose what channel they are most comfortable using.
What are the results of relative results of companies using Omni Channel Marketing?
- With Omni Channel Marketing, companies begin to have 90% customer retention. Customers are coming back to check the website twice as often because it was convenient for them to choose the type of channel they want to be communicated. Another great thing is the conversion of customers from a different channel to using Omni Channel. It has greatly increased by 250%.
What are your best practices in terms of customer segmentation?

VIP list- they are treated the best customers. They get the best deals and offers, and organize offline events for them.
New Prospected customers- As marketers, we maintain a list of those who are subscribers but have not purchased anything on the website yet. We are aggressive in using different channels in retargeting campaigns. For example, we send customers welcome back campaigns through email like offer discount or special offers for specific customer or groups.
Subscribers who used to be buyers but are no longer active for 12 months or so- they are removed from the subscribers list. Not worth marketing anymore. They may have been back with a new email or phone number.

Fun ideas of marketing strategies or practices?

Creating personal videos for customers
Postcards or personal replies
Loyalty Programs
Customer Support
Upselling Videos- When a customer purchases an item, you send an automated campaign of another product that is relevant to what the customer is purchasing. For example, if a customer purchases a phone, before the order is dispatched, the customer receives an automated campaign of a wireless charger. Mention discounts and all other perks of having them ordered in one cart.

What is the process of deciding what product to upsell to customers?

Products that fit the best with the item purchased by the customer
