It allows marketers to narrow down their target audience, customize messaging and content, and tailor their overall marketing strategy to fit the interests and needs of each segment. This helps to create more impactful, personalized experiences for customers and leads to higher conversion rates.

Audience segmentation can be labor-intensive. In a world of limited resources, what elements of audience segmentation should be prioritized to maximize the impact of marketing personalization?

When allocating limited resources to audience segmentation, it's important to focus on gathering accurate customer data and creating meaningful segments. The customer data should include demographic information, past purchase behavior, interests, preferences, etc. Segments should also be chosen carefully, keeping in mind the overall objectives of the marketing personalization strategy. Once the segments are defined, you can then tailor the messaging, content and other elements of the campaign to fit each segment's needs.

The best tools and tactics for audience personalization in marketing include segmentation, dynamic content, targeted emails, personalized web experiences, remarketing, and A/B testing. Segmentation allows marketers to divide audiences into more targeted groups based on factors like demographics, purchase behavior, interests, and preferences. Dynamic content allows marketers to customize messaging and content for each segment. Targeted emails allow marketers to send customized emails to each segment. Personalized web experiences allow marketers to tailor their website to different types of customers. Remarketing enables marketers to retarget users who have previously interacted with the brand. Finally, A/B testing enables marketers to compare different versions of content to determine what resonates with each audience segment.

Why is marketing personalization more critical (or popular) today than it was 10 years ago?

Marketing personalization has become more critical and popular in recent years due to the increase of digital channels and the ability to collect customer data from these channels. By leveraging customer data, marketers can create more targeted and personalized experiences for each segment of their customers.

Additionally, advances in technology have made it easier for marketers to create these personalized experiences at scale.
