Challenge
Marble Financial faced specific challenges in its digital and paid areas as it competes with more prominent players with more significant budgets. Despite considerable work and discovery, they struggled to identify the right audience and find the best-converting leads. To overcome this challenge, Marble needed to understand the attitudes and beliefs of their customers to improve their products and build an engaging customer experience. For this, they turned to Apex.
Process
We partnered with Marble to uncover their best current and potential customers and what drives their loyalty and advocacy. Built on our Apex Score platform, we identified key engagement motivators and developed a sophisticated playbook for greater customer connection. Our three-step approach, including audience profiles, journey mapping, and brand profile development, provided a holistic understanding of engagement, a roadmap from today to the future, and a benchmarking tool to measure success at every milestone forward.
We can't get this type of customer insight from anywhere else. We have numbers and tracking on the performance side, but getting deep into understanding the behaviors of the customers is really important for us to be successful in this new venture that we're going on
