New Visualizations in Airship Journeys Offer Breakthrough Simplicity to Perfect Cross-Channel Customer Experiences

customer engagement company Airship revealed new Airship Journeys visualizations that make managing in-the-moment cross-channel customer experiences dramatically simpler and more effective for marketers. Now, for the first time, marketers can quickly zero in on underperforming campaigns with high-level views of performance and journey relationships and — in a few clicks — modify messages to improve performance or connect journeys to advance other marketing goals.

“With our initial release of Airship Journeys, we completely changed the game for marketers to reach customers in moments that matter, simplifying the complexity of cross-channel customer engagement”

Airship Journeys simplifies all aspects of cross-channel customer engagement. Journey setup is guided and based on goals marketers want people to achieve. Messages can be composed once and sent through any channel — mobile apps, websites, SMS, email and emerging channels like RCS. Settings for message delivery, audience selection and channel orchestration are simple to use, and automatically adjust to real-time customer behavior. Finally, campaign performance metrics are overlaid on each Airship Journeys view and every underlying message with Performance Analytics offering up to 10 levels of campaign information including a marketer’s own reporting IDs. With Airship Journeys everything marketers need to create, evaluate, modify cross-channel journeys is in one intuitive visual UI.

“We’ve driven massive success with Airship including a 98 percent success rate encouraging app users to upgrade to the latest version and an abandoned order conversion rate of close to 30 percent, and Airship Journeys makes it even easier for our team to drive valuable engagement across channels — from welcome flows to purchase paths and more,” said Chris Hansen, Senior Director, Digital, TGI Fridays. “Airship Journeys makes it simple for anyone on our team to understand our various journeys, how they are connected and how well they are performing, which streamlines our productivity in creating exceptional customer experiences.”

Extensive research with more than 80 customers, supported by a survey of nearly 400 respondents, found that today’s drag-and-drop journey tools generate convoluted diagrams with sprawling branches that are difficult to create and nearly impossible to understand, analyze and modify. In contrast, Airship Journeys takes advantage of the Customer Engagement Platform’s real-time data, personalization, intelligent channel orchestration and predictive machine learning, and configures these as settings, not complex branches. The result is journeys and messages that are easy for anyone in the company to understand, evaluate and modify for improved campaign outcomes and better customer experiences.

Today, Airship also announced major enhancements to break down common obstacles to more precise engagement and personalized execution across channels and systems, including:

• A new suite of intelligent link features for Airship SMS that allows marketers to customize and track links that recipients click to personalize future messages, as well as trigger journeys to start or end on any channel, bringing new levels of personalization and flexibility.
• General availability of new integration enhancements with Salesforce Journey Builder and mParticle that enable data from these systems, and a host of others, to trigger Airship Journeys with complete bi-directional data and messaging between solutions. For example, marketers can trigger an Airship Journey within a Salesforce Journey if people aren’t responding to emails. Or, marketers can serve up a more visible mobile app communication if a shopping cart was abandoned on a website.

“With our initial release of Airship Journeys, we completely changed the game for marketers to reach customers in moments that matter, simplifying the complexity of cross-channel customer engagement,” said Brett Caine, CEO and president, Airship. “Now with the latest release of Airship Journeys, we’re making it easier than ever for marketers to ensure their campaigns will achieve their specific business objectives and provide amazing experiences to their customers.”
