Their final score will enable them to see if they are beginner, intermediate or advanced digital marketers.

The Progress Digital Marketing Maturity Guide helps organizations determine the level of sophistication within their digital marketing operations. Using this guide, Progress worked with Dimensional Research to conduct a global survey of 700 marketing professionals gauging the level of digital marketing maturity across various verticals and company sizes.

When it comes to engaging your customers, every moment matters. Build a better customer experience to capitalize on every opportunity.

Too many businesses still measure online success by the amount of traffic they drive to their website. They devote substantial budgets to improving search engine rankings and exposing their site to new visitors. But each visitor and customer is unique. Therefore, your web strategy should be as unique as they are. Today, your website visitors have higher expectations for their user experience. They expect personalized content relevant to their interests to help move them along their purchase decision. This white paper takes a close look at personalization, how it works, and the tools you need to tailor and deliver personalized content to your website visitors.  

One of the biggest buzzwords for marketers over the past several years is personalization.
When discussing this concept, people often use the terms “personalization” and “customization”interchangeably. Not clearly understanding the differences may explain why some businesseshave difficulty implementing better experiences for their customers.

Tailoring experiences for customers is critical to make your business standout.  Customization works well for organizations that want to enhance their standard customer experience but don’t have the necessary tools or strategy for in-depth personalization. Learn about the 5 best practices for customizing websites and the 5 biggest challenges marketers face while customizing their websites.

Running and maintaining a CMS should not be an arduous task, just as the quest for
optimization should not be overwhelming. Progress® Sitefinity® offers a wide array of controls and services out of the box, and our dedicated Sitefinity team will work tirelessly to fulfill your business website needs.

With 66% of consumers saying personalized offers and content have had an impact on their purchasing decisions, it is time to get started and reap the rewards of personalization.

Knowing where to begin with your personalization strategy can be a challenge. A good place to start is with our Personalization Checklist. As you implement your personalization strategy, it will help guide you, ensuring you have all the answers and tools to succeed.

The checklist will take you through key questions to identify buyer personas and metrics to measure success. It will also help you put the right tools in place and structure a launch plan, from segmenting your audience, to refining messaging and optimization.

While A/B testing has been around for years, many marketers haven’t tapped into the full
potential of experimentation. Controlled experimentation removes assumptions and guesswork by truly measuring the impact of explicit changes. This empowers brands to conduct true data-driven marketing that is tailored specifically to their target audience.

Immersive, engaging customer journeys have become competitive differentiators among today’s enterprises, with modern digital experience platforms powering these efforts. The right platform enables businesses to deliver highly personalized, omni-channel experiences and empowers organizations to craft the journeys customers want.
