SOCihas introduced SOCi Surveys, which enables businesses to actively gather ongoing feedback from customers in order to create personalized experiences. By providing real-time insights into customer sentiment, SOCi Surveys assists businesses in measuring customer satisfaction and understanding their preferences.
SOCi Surveys provides multi-location enterprises with a competitive edge by allowing them to proactively collect first-party data which is exclusive to their brand. This feedback is transformed into meaningful insights that drive improvements in business operations, leading to increased customer satisfaction and loyalty.
"SOCi Surveys unlocks a world where multi-location businesses can understand their customers on a deeper, local level and make data-driven decisions to improve operations where it matters most – inside the stores. No brand will ever be closer to their consumer than its local stores. Adding this reality to the fact that consumer behavior patterns are volatile, the need and struggle to capture location-based customer insights becomes clear – especially at a time when brand visibility is more critical than ever," said Cynthia Castro, VP of Product, SOCi.
The integration of first-party data collection through SOCi Surveys not only enhances personalized customer experiences but also enables marketers to leverage advanced AI technologies effectively. By building a comprehensive repository of first-party data, marketers gain access to valuable insights that can be used to fuel AI models and tools. This, in turn, enables more precise customer segmentation, refined targeting strategies, and more impactful personalization efforts.
