Conversica Integrates Its Generative AI Conversational Platform With Salesforce Marketing Cloud in a Transformative Go-to-Market Initiative
The groundbreaking collaboration empowers Salesforce Marketing Cloud clients to engage with leads and customers in hyper-personalized, two-way, one-to-one open-ended conversations throughout the buyers’ journey
“Now, organizations can nurture leads at the ‘mid-funnel’ stage by engaging in back-and-forth email and SMS interactions. This integration caters to Salesforce Marketing Cloud users from enterprise organizations and enterprises exploring Generative AI by enhancing their ability to deliver personalized experiences at any point during the buyer’s journey.”
The integration of Conversica AI-powered Revenue Digital Assistants™ (RDAs) into Salesforce Marketing Cloud will empower customers to actively engage their leads and customers within email and SMS, enabling targeted, open-ended, and two-way conversations at every stage of the customer journey. By leveraging this integration, Marketing Cloud customers can invoke personal AI assistants through journey builder custom actions to enhance its enterprise-leading marketing automation platform that focuses on top-of-funnel lead generation with personalized one-to-one mid-funnel lead nurturing capabilities.
Taking this a step further, using Salesforce Marketing Cloud Personalization (Salesforce Interaction Studio), brands can use Conversica’s personal assistants to deliver offers, product recommendations, and upsell or cross-sell campaigns in a human-like personalized two-way communication platform. This allows consumers to interact with brands through their promotions instead of just receiving them.
A New Approach to the Buyer’s Journey
Unlike the traditional marketing approach, which often limits interactions to one-way messages, the integration of Conversica’s RDAs into Salesforce Marketing Cloud dramatically improves the customer experience by adding capabilities for leads and prospects to have a dynamic ‘dialogue’ with the brand’s AI assistant, adding this simply within Marketing Cloud Journey Builder.
Now, prospects, nurtured leads, and existing customers will have the opportunity to engage in dynamic, personalized and customized conversations throughout their entire lifecycle in a concierge-like experience. This transformative integration opens up new avenues for customer engagement, nurturing and enduring relationships while servicing them exceptionally. This capability will also allow brands using Marketing Cloud to do data hygiene such as asking for the most relevant contact information and more discovery such as ‘were you able to find the products you were looking for?’ Companies can forge stronger connections with their prospects and buyers, gain valuable insights and create meaningful interactions that drive greater customer loyalty and satisfaction.
“This groundbreaking collaboration introduces a new era of marketing automation that transcends the traditional top-of-funnel campaigns,” said Jim Kaskade, CEO of Conversica. “Now, organizations can nurture leads at the ‘mid-funnel’ stage by engaging in back-and-forth email and SMS interactions. This integration caters to Salesforce Marketing Cloud users from enterprise organizations and enterprises exploring Generative AI by enhancing their ability to deliver personalized experiences at any point during the buyer’s journey.”
Generative AI and the Enterprise Ecosystem
Conversica’s RDAs offer an average of 24x return on investment, 40-50% conversion rates, and 10x pipeline growth. For clients using the Salesforce Marketing Cloud, a Conversica RDA can be added to any customer journey flow by inserting the Conversica Custom Activity. When the Custom Activity is initiated, the Conversica API is used for that request and begins a one-to-one, two-way conversation with each contact on the list. Customers benefit from the integration without the need to write any code or purchase a new product outside of their existing tech stack.
The integration with Salesforce Marketing Cloud expands and strengthens Conversica’s partnerships with Salesforce. The company launched the integration of its Generative AI platform with Salesforce Automotive Cloud in March allowing dealers and OEMs to automate their Sales and Marketing processes to generate more qualified leads, increase efficiency and enhance the customer experience. These initiatives are part of Conversica’s global partner program launched in January 2023. The program aims to expand Conversica’s geographic reach and deliver value-added Generative AI platforms and solutions through strategic alliances. Among others announced this year are UHURU, CI&T, Doorkel, ISSICO, and Quantum Sports + Entertainment.
