In e-commerce, sites use AI to analyze a customer’s past purchases and browsing history to recommend similar products they may be interested in. AI and ML automates certain tasks such as customer service inquiries and responses, freeing up time for human employees to focus on more complex tasks. For example, a retail brand may use a chatbot powered by AI to handle common customer inquiries, allowing human customer service representatives to focus on more complex issues. Likewise predictive analytics on the basis of customer behaviour and preferences, allows the brands to proactively address potential issues and provide better service. It has been seen that travel companies use predictive analytics to identify customers who may be at risk of cancelling their trip and proactively offer them incentives to keep their booking.”This brings us to the conclusion that Brand Innovation is the key to acquiring new customers and building a larger pool of mindshare in the minds of prospects.
