logistics and transport

Transportation and Logistics companies face a relentless battle to minimise costs and maximise profitability. Companies that succeed in this industry rely on customer-centric business intelligence to keep one step ahead of their competition. A continuous understanding of the relationship they have with customers maintains loyalty and opens up new revenue generating opportunities.

Working with fresh and historical transactional data, Information Inventor from Oceans Blue provides sales and marketing teams with the essential knowledge to anticipate customer demands, develop and market new services and analyse customer profitability.

  • Improve and predict long-term Customer Lifetime Value (CLV)
  • Proactively and subtly manage customer behaviour to achieve business objectives
  • Increase marketing conversion rates, take a greater share of the customer wallet
  • Gain business-specific insight into why customer loyalty is both damaged and enhanced
  • Measure and improve sales force and account management efficiency
  • Loyalty and Retention can be a major headache for many goods delivery companies. In some cases relationships can be so fluid that simple changes in personnel or the visit of a competitor to a customer site can lead to a churn event.
