Teradata CRM
Do you know what your individual customers want to talk about – today? How will you make each customer conver-sation significant, relevant, timely, and profitable? These questions are driving the next wave in the evolution of customer management – dynamic customer rela-tionship optimization (CRO). Teradata solutions have been recognized as best-in-class for effective execution of CRO.
Talk isn’t always cheap – companies like yours invest tremendous sums to commu-nicate with customers across many channels. You allocate your best people, resources, and capital in processes engineered to create and support branded value propositions to
your markets. You leverage your systems to produce intelligence for decisions and communications that shape customer experiences and relationships. The value and revenue realized from products and services you offer – depend on the credibility of your intelligence, plus the relevance and reso-nance of your customer communications.
What you say to your customers is where economic value begins: and solutions that enable compelling value propositions and relevant conversations will favorably differen-tiate the brand, the product, and the business. In a time when the patina of CRM has faded, the importance of CRO nonetheless contin-ues to rise exponentially. The number one business question still remains: “What exactly are you doing to optimize your customer relationships, create profitable customer experiences, and grow customer equity?”
To optimize customer communications, companies must find a solution that addresses their greatest points of pain. These include such issues as:
> The increasing complexity of customers, markets, and competitors – which can cloud or erase brand differentiation. > Incomplete knowledge of customer
interests, needs, preferences, and interac-tions resulting in off-target messaging and unmanageable defections. > Fragmented, incomplete views of
individual customer profiles across the
enterprise that lead to miscommunica-tion, missed opportunities, and poor brand experiences for customers. > Inefficient communication channel
management, which inflates costs and can alienate customers who interact on multiple channels and touch points.
What’s more important than a serious customer management approach – one that recognizes the overarching economic value of customer relationship optimization? This is the one area of business investment that deserves C-level visibility. The core compe-tency of successful companies continues to be their uncanny ability to convert enter-prise intelligence into profitable products, services, and customer conversations.
Teradata’s integrated analytics and market-ing automation tools drive its recognized leadership in CRO. With Teradata, your customer process specialists will communi-cate with your customers based on holistic intelligence gathered from credible and complete real-time enterprise information. The result for your business: personalized service and selling conversations that hit the value bull’s-eye for individual customers.

A Componentized Solution Framework Adaptable to Your Business
Single Customer View
Because marketing is only as effective as your knowledge of your customers, the Teradata CRM framework rests on a single customer view. Because all customer data is in just one place, you can always deliver consistent messaging and branding across
all channels. There’s no need to manage, update, or synchronize multiple customer databases. And you can quickly put your finger on deep and detailed historical data on all customer behavior including transactions, profile information, third-party data, and interactions with ATMs, call centers, kiosks, and your website.
Teradata provides all the tools and utilities needed to extract, load, and manage data from many disparate sources into one consolidated, high quality data repository. Pre-built to simplify and accelerate imple-mentation, the customer data model provides a persistent and historical cus-tomer view to serve as a corporate memory, and complements any existing customer data model that you may be using. Teradata also provides virtually unlimited scalability and performance as well as lower cost of ownership for customer data repositories.
Travelocity.com, a global leader in online travel services, turned to Teradata CRM in 2001 to find a better way to understand, serve and communicate with its 40 million customers. Travelocity uses Teradata CRM to:
> Do click stream analysis and discover how cus-tomers use the site – then better personalize messages and enhance the value of the relationship. > Test the viability of specific messages and offers on
various customer segments.
> Doing sophisticated event-based marketing to discover customers who have booked a trip, but not a hotel or car rental – then make a compelling offer. Travelocity is pleased with new capabilities Teradata has enabled. “We started with the building blocks – to know more about our customers and best ways to deliver
targeted market campaigns… and since the successful deployment we have realized a significant return on investment,” said Caroline Smith, Director of Data Warehouse Marketing for Travelocity.
For example, at 8 am a major airline offered to travel agencies a special fare from Los Angeles to San Juan, Puerto Rico. Travelocity quickly scanned customer browsing behavior, pulled the email addresses for 30,000 people in the Los Angeles area who had browsed but not bought tickets to the Caribbean, and generated an e-mail message. The result: a whopping 25% of the recipients of that email had booked tickets within the month. This was an effective campaign (measured by the take rate) as well as a highly efficient one (measured by the ROI from the profit of those extra tickets).
Actionable Analytics
Teradata Customer Analytics allow you to take full advantage of the data that you have on your customers to create action-able intelligence for opportunity discovery, decisioning, creating compelling value propositions, growing profitability, and managing customer segments. > Guided Analyticsprovide easy-to-use

> Build virtually any query easily with no SQL or pseudo-SQL. > Analyze and evaluate customer and
product groups through a simple-to-use interface and immediately include these segments in your campaigns. > Realize opportunities based on new links discovered between segments of customers, products, stores, and specific attributes.

You can use offer management to: > Automate the matching of each of
millions of customers with the best one of hundreds of possible offers or actions, based on what customers are doing now (shopping in a store, browsing the website, calling the call center for information).

To better serve customers, companies must respect consumer privacy. We encourage the adoption of privacy policies built on notice, choice, access, and security. Con-sumers should know that data is being collected and how it will be used. They should also know that merchants have taken steps to secure customer data from improper use. Creating and building trust is at the heart of building enduring one-to-one relationships.
