AUTONOMY OPTIMOST TURBO-CHARGES ADAPTIVE TARGETING WITH MEANING BASED MARKETING
New Solution Automatically Identifies and Optimizes New Customer Segments to Help Marketers Gain Market Share and Drive Growth
eMETRICS MARKETING OPTIMIZATION SUMMIT, San Jose, Calif., - May 6, 2009 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that Optimost Adaptive Targeting is now powered by Autonomy's Meaning Based Marketing engine, giving marketers a radically new and more powerful capability for identifying, engaging, and converting customers online. By combining Optimost Adaptive Targeting with Autonomy's unique Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), the solution automatically identifies new segments of customers, recommends the most compelling content, and launches new offers and campaigns, all powered by a unique meaning-based approach.
"Combining Autonomy's meaning-based computing with Interwoven's content management raises profound implications for site design, optimization, customer segmentation, personalization, and analytics," said Jim Murphy, Research Director, AMR Research "The result is a sort of dynamic, self-optimizing, cross-channel, customer engagement engine."
"With this announcement, we are turning the traditional, manual approach to market segmentation on its head," said Mark Wachen, Managing Director, Autonomy Optimost. "Rather than relying on statisticians to perform complex analytics based on static, historical data, Autonomy Optimist empowers marketers with a solution that automatically identifies new market segments as they emerge in real-time, and allows them to immediately take action by offering targeted campaigns. This is precisely the kind of solution that is required to succeed in the modern, dynamic web."
Adaptive Targeting Now Powered by Meaning Based Marketing
Optimost Adaptive Targeting mines all major types of customer attributes to create customer segments, including context (how the visitor arrives at the Website, e.g. search keyword), geography, time of day, and demographic, behavior, and account profile information. Once customer segments are created, multivariate tests are conducted on an unlimited number of copy ideas, offers, and layouts to determine the best solution for each audience segment.
By adding the Meaning Based Computing capabilities of IDOL to Adaptive Targeting, marketers gain a unique ability to understand and effectively serve their customers. By leveraging IDOL, Optimost Adaptive Targeting now includes unique keyword clustering capabilities that automatically identifies concepts and patterns as they are emerging on the web. For instance, an online pet store might discover that an unusually high number of "long-tail" searches relate to vacationing with pets. The solution could then automatically serve up more content and special offers around travel tote bags and kits.
Likewise, the new Adaptive Targeting solution is also able to identify new opportunities - even counterintuitive ones - through referral clustering, or an understanding of the sites visitors are coming from. For instance, an extreme sports retailer could see that a high number of visitors are coming from other sites usually associated with baby boomers, such as financial services retirement funds, or healthcare sites talking about the benefits of exercise to seniors. As a result, the store automatically launches new offers and campaigns to immediately capitalize on that emerging segment.
