NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Personalization lies at the core of digital targeting, DTC campaigns, and a host of other high-profile marketing tactics. But effective personalization requires a clear understanding of consumers’ wants, concerns, and motivations around this growing trend.
To guide stakeholders of every kind, GfK and the National Retail Federation (NRF) have published a new white paper, “Decoding the Personalization Paradox,” to help brands apply personalization at scale.
Drawing heavily on insights from GfK Consumer Life, as well as GfK’s annual FutureBuy® shopping report, the white paper reveals:
- three major societal trends that are driving the desire for personalization, and
- how brands can leverage these trends to optimize their marketing strategy and tactics.
