DRIVING DATA ETHICS TO BUILD CONSUMER TRUST

Brands today are constantly experimenting with new ways to leverage data to effectively reach consumers. With this innovation, comes risk. Not just risk of violating regulations, but risk of compromising organizational values by leveraging data in a manner that’s inconsistent with consumer expectations. There’s an opportunity to mitigate this risk by developing a guide for the ethical use of data.

There are many questions that need to be answered. How can brands set effective policies that not only enable marketers to activate this data with confidence, but simultaneously build trust with their consumers? Who makes these policies? How does a brand know when policy is needed? In this session, ANA’s Senior Vice President Senny Boone will share applied principles from the recently released ANA Ethics Code of Marketing Best Practices which offers baseline guidance that drives transparent, accurate, responsible data privacy and security that insures consumer trust, and enables both marketing and data strategies for growth.

AT ANTHROPOLOGIE, IT’S ABOUT THE JOURNEY NOT DESTINATION

At Anthropologie, it is strongly held that we be data-inspired, but creativity led. Its customers often say they didn’t know what they wanted to buy until they see it. This is because the act of shopping is also part discovery and part inspiration. In building a customer experience that encourages discovery with a combination of human artistic experience and customer data the company has been able to expand categories and increase frequency. The combination of great customer engagement, loyalty and in-store experiences has created an environment where great customer data meets great customer feedback. This has also allowed future product development and marketing delivery to growth with both new and repeat customers.
