Available directly from within the Responsys Interact® Campaign™ interface, Responsys has partnered with Aggregate Knowledge, Baynote, Certona, Coremetrics, MyBuys, Omniture, Proclivity Systems, richrelevance, and Strands for recommendation solutions, and Omniture for testing and targeting solutions. In just a few clicks, marketers can now dynamically deliver contextual, behavior-driven, or personalized content such as product recommendations based on like-minded customers and web site behavior, or optimized copy and images based on real-time results of multivariate tests, into email campaigns for a superior customer experience and greater marketing ROI. "There have been incredible advances in the targeting and recommendation space over the past several years. What was once the sole domain of early innovators like Amazon is now available to companies of all sizes, in all industries," said John Berkley, Vice President of Product Marketing at Responsys. "With this combined offering, marketers can now take advantage of leading recommendation and targeting solutions to automatically insert personalized content and offers into a campaign. This brings huge time savings, and more importantly, a huge lift to campaign ROI." Using simple drop-down menus in Responsys Interact Campaign, the industry's leading campaign management solution, marketers can select the appropriate recommendation, testing or targeting solutions and deliver content that is dynamically determined at the time the email campaign is sent or when the recipient opens the email. The combined solutions enable the ultimate timeliness and relevancy of message delivery. Responsys customers praise the new dynamic content capabilities of Interact Campaign: • "We've had success with Baynote's recommendations on our web site and now we've seen similar positive returns since we've implemented them in our email campaigns powered by Responsys," said Jay DeFoore, Director of Consumer Marketing at The Knot Inc. "It shows that users really trust and respect the wisdom of the crowd." • "Given the challenging economic climate, we need to push the envelope to deliver the most compelling content and offers to our customers," said Elizabeth Nakamoto, Lead Business Data Architect at StubHub. "Responsys and Omniture have enabled us to test and deliver the type of high-impact marketing that is needed in these times. The results speak for themselves — these integrated campaigns are driving 2,500% more revenue per email than average marketing campaigns." The new partner content options are now generally available within the Responsys Interact® Campaign™ solution for multichannel campaign management.
