The integration of WhatsApp Business Messaging adds a valuable new channel for marketers to connect with their customers. It can be activated alongside email, SMS, push, and social media to ensure that brands can connect with their customers using relevant and actionable messaging in the customer’s preferred channel. This feature adds a cool element to the ability to have personalized conversations with the customer in their preferred channel. It supports the “Marketing Holy Grail” quote of “right person, right message, right time” by prioritizing the oft-ignored “right channel” append to the holy grail.
- Engagement: Journey Builder – History UI
The latest release also includes three new visual dashboards that help marketers see journey activities and health. This feature adds some cool interactive filtering and sorting features so you can really customize your view. The Journey Builder – History UI is a great addition that helps marketers track the customer journey and make data-driven decisions. This new feature is a significant upgrade for marketers who need to analyze the customer journey and identify areas of improvement.
- Customer Data Platform Advertising
The latest Salesforce Marketing Cloud release further enables advertising in the “cookieless future” by connecting first-party data in CDP to advertising partners. This feature allows marketers to personalize advertising at scale through native integrations. By using first-party data in CDP, marketers can better understand their customers and deliver relevant advertising that resonates with them. This feature is a great new opportunity for marketers who need to adapt to the changing advertising landscape.
