The role of Pimcore in omnichannel marketing: customer focus and seamlessness across all channels
“In today’s digital world, customers expect a seamless and consistent experience across all channels.”
Omnichannel marketing is no longer an optional extra, but a necessity to remain competitive in an increasingly connected market. Customers interact with brands across a variety of channels – from social media and websites to mobile apps and physical stores. These channels need to be connected to ensure a consistently positive and personalized customer experience.
But to create such an experience, companies need a powerful, centralized platform that efficiently controls all marketing activities and optimizes the management of data and content. This is where Pimcore comes into play. By integrating product information management (PIM), content management (CMS) and digital asset management (DAM), Pimcore offers a solution that allows companies to centrally manage their omnichannel strategies across different channels and deliver personalized content. This makes omnichannel marketing not only possible, but also successful and sustainable.

How Pimcore optimizes omnichannel marketing: Centralized data management and cross-channel content
Omnichannel marketing is an important success factor for companies that want to be able to reach their target groups efficiently. A key challenge is to manage all data and content consistently and efficiently across different channels. This is where Pimcore comes into play. With its powerful platform, Pimcore offers a solution that enables companies to centralize and optimize both data and content across all channels. In this section, we show how Pimcore helps to simplify the management of data and content and coordinate marketing activities across channels.
Central data management:
Pimcore acts as a single source of truth by providing a centralized, unified data platform that unifies all product and customer-specific data. This centralized management allows companies to obtain all relevant information from one source, ensuring data consistency and accuracy. This is particularly important for omnichannel marketing as it ensures that customers are engaging with the same, up-to-date information across all channels. With a centralized database, companies can offer personalized and targeted communication across all channels without inconsistencies or misunderstandings. Whether via the website, social media or email, the message and user experience remain consistent throughout and tailored to the customer’s individual needs.
Channels and content:
The efficient management of content across different channels is another crucial aspect of Pimcore in omnichannel marketing. With Pimcore, companies can seamlessly coordinate their marketing campaigns and content across websites, mobile apps, social networks, emails and other digital touchpoints. Pimcore offers an integrated solution that allows content to be created once and then distributed in different formats and for different channels. This cross-channel management reduces effort and minimizes errors as all teams access the same central source. In addition, Pimcore allows companies to control and adapt personalized content and offers according to channel and target group, significantly increasing the relevance and effectiveness of their campaigns.

Integration of Pimcore for a large fashion company
A large fashion company faced the challenge of implementing a consistent and effective marketing strategy across multiple channels. The brand wanted to strengthen its presence across a variety of digital platforms, but was struggling to manage its content and campaigns consistently.
Background
The company used different systems for product data, customer information and marketing campaigns. These decentralized approaches led to inconsistencies in communication, inefficient data management and a slow response to market changes. The multitude of channels, from e-commerce websites to social media and mobile apps, made the coordination of content and campaigns considerably more difficult.

DMG implemented Pimcore as a central platform for managing product data, customer information and marketing campaigns. The decision to implement Pimcore was based on the platform’s ability to integrate all data in one central point and optimize marketing strategies across channels. Pimcore enabled the company to synchronize all content and data in real time and make it accessible for all channels.
Implementation process
The implementation process began with a detailed analysis of the existing systems and the company’s requirements. Pimcore was seamlessly integrated into the existing infrastructure and IT systems, and the platform was adapted to the specific needs of the fashion company. The internal teams were trained in several workshops in order to optimally understand and apply the new processes and the use of Pimcore.
Result andmeasurable success:
By implementing Pimcore, the company was able to significantly reduce the error rate in data management, as all information was now maintained centrally and consistently. This led to a significant improvement in efficiency and a reduction in duplication of work. In addition, customer loyalty was increased by 30% as personalized, cross-channel campaigns were targeted and based on real-time data.
