What Is AI And How Can You Use It To Your Advantage?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not just robots in a movie or some far-fetched science fiction story. AI is about building smart machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. Doing this effectively saves time and frustration on manual and time-consuming tasks that people could often spend in better ways.
Microsoft is now acknowledged as the global leader in Artificial Intelligence. EngageRM uses AI with fan engagement, sponsorship, membership and marketing. The feature set includes conversational intelligence, virtual agents (chat services) and sales insights. AI allows sales teams to build stronger relationships, service teams to improve productivity and the entire organisation to see exactly what’s happening every day.
The Microsoft Marketing solution delivers the right messages to the right people at exactly the right time. Using the Customer Data Platform (CDP), we’re able to combine social, behavioural, tag management and other data to draw together information, forming a single view of fans. Using this data, we can understand customer journeys and what fans are really looking for.
Don't wait until everyone else is underway before you start to utilise AI.
