What is a Customer Data Hub?
Customer Data Hubs are a new way of thinking about managing your online and offline customer interactions. It is a place to accumulate records of customers' and visitors' behavior and experience of an enterprise.
These records typically contain a "customer profile" for each visitor, this profile will hold static information about visitors - things like their name, address, account number etc. and the Hub will also contain "behavior records", that record individuals undertaking specific actions or activities (like purchasing or searching for products, or registering for the site).
In this way the behavioral record becomes a place to hold all the key business and behavioral data for a customer. Some companies just use these hubs to gain online customer intelligence, but they can be used to compile a complete cross-channel view of the customer. Other businesses also augment a customer record with data from BI or other systems - adding information like suggested credit limits, or "next best offer" or "product recommendations".
Adding this type of data is important as the second reason for implementing a behavioral record is that they can be used to drive personalized messages to the visitor or to drive trigger-based marketing campaigns.
Customer Data Hubs can drive dynamic programs like Basket Re-marketing, Customer Retention, Behavioral Targeting and even provide triggers for key business processes like Churn Management or Anti-Fraud programs.
