Customer data & segmentation FAQ
Questions before the work begins.
How is this different from CRM marketing?
CRM marketing runs customer communications. This service focuses on the underlying identity, event, attribute, and audience architecture that supports those decisions.
Do we need a CDP?
Not necessarily. We first assess whether your existing warehouse, CRM, commerce platform, and ESP can support the required use cases.
Can you clean our customer data?
We can define quality rules, deduplication logic, field standards, and remediation priorities, then coordinate implementation with the appropriate owners.
How do you approach privacy?
We design around consent, purpose, access, retention, and suppression requirements, while recommending legal review for organization-specific obligations.
