The Problem

Modern buyers expect personalized experiences that reflect their interests, industry, and stage in the buying journey, yet most organizations deliver generic content that fails to resonate. Marketing teams create valuable content but lack the technology to deliver the right content to the right person at the right time. Manual personalization efforts don't scale, resulting in one-size-fits-all experiences that underperform. Without behavioral data integration, personalization is limited to basic demographic segmentation that misses the nuances of individual buyer preferences and intent.

The Solution

Marketo Engage's personalization capabilities enable marketers to deliver dynamic, individualized experiences across email and web channels at scale. The platform's predictive content engine, powered by Adobe Sensei AI, automatically selects the most relevant content for each recipient based on their past behavior, preferences, and engagement patterns. Marketers create content libraries tagged with topics, personas, and buying stages, then let the AI determine optimal content selection for each interaction. Web personalization capabilities deliver customized website experiences based on visitor attributes, behavior, and account membership. Dynamic email content adapts messaging, images, and calls-to-action based on recipient data and real-time behavioral signals.
