Why Adobe and Acxiom, Are, Well…An Item
November 16, 2023One is among the world’s most innovative software and digital marketing companies. The other among the world’s most trusted customer intelligence experts. One is 41-years smart, the other, 54. Both were founded by wily IT veterans based on a deep respect for the positive potential of technology. Both have earned years of industry recognition for patented solutions, best workplaces, diversity, and the responsible use of technology.
When it comes to relationships, we’re a really good match. But there’s a lot more to the Adobe + Acxiom equation than looking good together on the red carpet.
I’ll explain, but first, why is a “good match” important? Our recent martech success research reveals the answers. To ensure success, brands must select platform + service partners that:
- Trust each other and have a demonstrable technical relationship, shared recipes—if you will—that prove 1 + 1 = 3.
- Tailor their joint-practice to each brand’s individual needs and use cases.
- Are tandemly transparent about potential challenges and the measures in place to prevent issues from occurring.
- Are both trusted sources of continual, coordinated support across the lifecycle of your project.
Adobe and Acxiom have a long-standing, productive alliance that checks these boxes. And for brands who must prove to people they understand them, that’s a winning combination. When brands understand people, the conversations and experiences between the two are always better. Better conversations and experiences build trust. And people love to buy from brands they trust.
