How do you see email fitting into the marketing mix in 2025?
With the emergence of modern data warehouses, composable CDPs, and new data activation companies, a single source of truth infrastructure will produce highly personalized messages through the most impactful channels in real time and/or at the best time.
What about email do you see as a nice-to-have for now, but feel will be considered table stakes by 2025?
Customer data is at the core of driving brand love, and today, the ability to activate email data to create the best possible experience seems out of reach for many companies. In 2025, it will be table stakes in their overall communications strategies as email data will be a critical subset of the overall data set used to drive a highly personalized experience.
