AI is reshaping customer experiences with hyper-personalised Ads and content

It’s understandable that AI can feel overwhelming, with concerns about privacy and automation running high. However, AI is not something to fear – but rather it’s a tool that, when used effectively, can create more meaningful and tailored customer experiences. In fact, it’s already shaping the future of marketing, allowing brands to deliver hyper-personalised content that connects more deeply with their audience.

In order to keep up in the “new-age” world, brands must deliver personalised experiences to stand out and AI has become a driving force in this transformation.

AI’s role in personalisation

AI processes vast amounts of data to identify customer preferences and behaviours, helping brands provide hyper-relevant ads and content. This ensures that every message or product recommendation a customer receives feels personalised and timely. Unlike traditional marketing strategies, AI allows marketers to work smarter, reaching consumers in ways that matter most to them.

From tailored product recommendations to dynamic ad placements, AI delivers personalisation at a scale that simply wasn’t possible before. By automating data analysis and real-time adjustments, it boosts engagement, increases conversions and reduces wasted ad spend.

AI’s role in personalisation

The future of marketing is all about customer-centric experiences. AI enables marketers to deliver personalised interactions through tools like chatbots, dynamic content and predictive algorithms. These systems can anticipate what customers want even before they realise it themselves, ensuring that each touchpoint feels intuitive and relevant.

For example, AI-powered recommendation engines from companies like Netflix and Amazon create personalised content suggestions, making customers feel understood. By leveraging this technology, brands can elevate their marketing strategies, creating deeper customer loyalty while putting out a specific targeted message.

Ethical considerations

While AI personalisation offers many advantages, it’s important to approach it responsibly. Data privacy concerns are a major talking point, and brands must ensure transparency in how they collect and use data. Complying with regulations like GDPR is key to maintaining customer trust and ethical marketing practices.

AI is revolutionising marketing by making hyper-personalisation more accurate, scalable and efficient. As brands continue to harness AI’s potential, customer experiences will become more intuitive, engaging and relevant. LIVECOM, as an industry expert, remains at the forefront of these innovations, helping brands leverage AI to deliver next-level customer experiences.

SUMMER CAMPAIGN WEBSITE CASE STUDY

FNB SUMMER CAMPAIGN

BRIEF

In the summer of 2023, FNB launched their #100daysofsummer campaign. This campaign concept aimed to centre FNB as the bank that not only added value to their customer’s summer but also gave customers everything from summer deals to back-to-school bargains, all tailored to fit a summer vibe. 

 

As the direct marketing agency, LIVECOM were to rollout elements that provided an omni-channel view. Using direct messaging channels to communicate, we wanted to highlight how FNB customers/clients can utilise their services at every stage of their summer. 

 

SOLVE

LIVECOM’s focus was to reflect the lively spirit of a South African summer with FNB as the trusted holiday partner. We oversaw a multi-stage rollout dividing communications into pre-holiday, during holiday and post-holiday, spanning over the entire summer period. 

 

Presented with a tight deadline, we went to work on writing and designing with a summer look and feel as the guiding light that was achieved through copywriting, animation, design and coding.  

RESULTS

  • Rolled out over 80 emailers within a month, each customised to FNB’s vast customer base ranging from entry level banking, commercial clients, and RMB Private Bank. 
  • Successfully presented FNB customers/clients with vibrant and engaging content that gave them insights into FNB’s solutions and unique summer offers fit for the holiday season.

MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER CAMPAIGN

MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER CAMPAIGN

BRIEF

For the launch of the Mitsubishi Outlander 2023 we were required to develop a sales-driven digital teaser campaign. These had to be developed for multiple platforms before the vehicle arrived in South Africa and could be filmed.

SOLVE

To generate interest we created the ‘Step Up, Step Out’ concept, which was created without the Outlander. Instead, inch-perfect 3D renderings of the vehicle were developed in multiple formats and durations to enhance its reach across social media platforms.

RESULTS

Hyper realistic yet cost-effective visual treatments were created that enhanced reach. This was successfully combined with highly targeted messaging and call to action social posts.

MITSUBISHI E-SALESMAN

MITSUBISHI E-SALESMAN

BRIEF

The norm is static point of sales units that typically don’t involve customer engagement. For Mitsubishi, we needed to create something that would capture the attention of customers and leave a lasting impression, pulling in those sales.

To get more customer engagement and showcase the key selling points of the different models, we created a fully interactive website that would be used on the E-Salesman. The website also consists of detailed lead tracking and analytics.

RESULTS

The E-Salesman can be used at events and showings. To put it to the test, it was used at a NAMPO event over a four day period:

  • Over 1100 interactions with the E-Salesman
  • 32 test drives booked
  • Created for 5 models
  • Average engagement time was 4 minutes (1 minute being the standard)
  • Over 400 views
