Acquia Introduces Retail Machine Learning Models to Increase Customer Lifetime Value

Acquia CDP Technology Highlighted at NRF to Increase Conversions Based on Data-Driven Product Bundling, Campaign Performance Optimization

BOSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Today at NRF 2022, digital experience company Acquia announced advanced retail machine learning models for Acquia Customer Data Platform (CDP), designed to increase customer lifetime value. Among these innovations is a new “market basket” model to drive digital commerce conversions by intelligently bundling relevant products, empowering retailers to better understand the behavior of their customers.

“Acquia is continuing to lead the pack for retail CDPs,” said Kevin Cochrane, senior vice president of product marketing at Acquia. “Through the recent launch of our multi-touch attribution model and new market basket model, we are helping retailers gain a more holistic view of their business by understanding successful levers within their sales and marketing efforts. This data-driven approach helps teams understand buyer habits to improve offerings and drive key conversion metrics that matter most.”

The market basket model for Acquia CDP is a best-in-class analytics solution that helps retailers effectively pair products, price packages and gain a deeper understanding of their own customers’ buying preferences. This model works by identifying correlations between items frequently purchased together to make smarter recommendations to end customers. These insights can help maximize the lifetime value to retailers of each customer.

In addition, many organizations have already leveraged the recently launched Acquia CDP innovation, multi-touch attribution, to visualize campaign performance across the funnel. These models have helped retailers understand the influence and ROI of marketing campaigns through a variety of attribution models, windows and event types, directly within Acquia CDP.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
