Driving Digital Customer Engagement Powered by Bayesian Networks

Presented at the 4th Annual BayesiaLab Conference in Nashville on September 29, 2016.

Abstract

Customer Engagement is one of those nebulous goals that look good on paper but is difficult to detail and tough to track and measure. Further, in the digital realm, it is too easy to click, ignore, repeat - and defining engagement becomes an exercise in uncertainty. Applying techniques of data analysis, including Bayesian Networks, we have developed the notion of a Customer Engagements KPI that is predictive of more business. Cisco’s Marketing is now rallying around this KPI with promising early results (deeper engagements are driving more leads and bookings). These results have increased our confidence and we are expanding this KPI to include additional channels (digital and non-digital) to deliver an omnichannel solution for Cisco Marketing centered around Customer Engagement.
