- Experience Continuity - Hyper Personalization Through Linked Experiences
When Walt Disney first created his theme parks, the vision was for a continuous experience at every engagement point.
This means that when you watch a movie and step into Disney World, it is as if you are entering part of the movie and vice versa. It is immersive. This concept of experience continuity is now more relevant than ever in the digital age.
The Challenge of Experience Continuity
Most organizations today struggle with experience continuity in some way. We’ve all experienced having to recite our account numbers repeatedly to chained processes from web to phone to callbacks.
Today's challenge is that our experience starts long before we talk to someone. With digital, there are two primary starting points—web and email. These two channels are often not linked using modern process orchestration for various reasons on the front end, including not knowing where to start.
Another way to say this is that experience continuity begins when you know where the intersection of experiences is happening.

Creating a consolidated view for analytics enables three critical outcomes:
- Personalization
- Performance attribution
- Centralized customer view
Localized reporting only provides a range-bound view, lacking context. To achieve true experience continuity, we need to consolidate data from various sources.

Cross-channel activity from campaigns, web and mobile.

The customer experience cross-engagement brings together web, email, content, and mobile into the singular view.
The first step is bringing together web, email, content, and mobile data into a singular view. This is often accomplished using specialized data warehouses suited for business and marketing analytics scenarios.
When centralized, this approach solves three key needs:
- Single Customer View
- Centralized Analytics
- Global Insights and Attribution
To make this happen, two elements are crucial
Integration - Preferably one that's easily adaptable to changing needs like the Put It Forward Integration Designer
Normalization - The process of making disparate data fit into a unified structure
Cross-channel engagement lays the foundation for Experience Continuity in the digital realm. The core tenant for this is Identity Resolution, which creates a feedback loop between analytics, insights, structured engagement campaigns, and brand experiences. This feedback loop enables two critical use cases:
- Identity Resolution
- Hyper Segmentation
Identity resolution unlocks related use cases such as halo ID, centralized reporting, continuous integration, and enhanced customer experience.

Benefits of Experience Continuity
While the emotional benefits of a seamless customer experience are obvious, quantifying these benefits can be challenging. The struggle with experience continuity stems from multiple points of customer engagement and disconnected sub-organizations within companies.
However, for organizations focused on creating delightful experiences, achieving experience continuity is more than possible. It requires partnering with experts who understand how to bring this vision to life.
