"Speaking at NRF is a tremendous opportunity for me to show retailers what Aprimo is doing to lead the marketing revolution," said Arthur. "I'm looking forward to sharing our work on the cutting edge of Intelligent 1-to-1 marketing and explain how our tools and techniques have had a big impact on B2C businesses." Aprimo is rated by industry experts as the leader in Integrated Marketing Management.

Arthur's presentation, titled "Integrate Your Marketing to Accelerate and Improve Results," will take place from 3:00 to 3:45 PM on January 16. She will discuss the power of Integrated Marketing Management to accelerate retail customer engagement, the synergistic relationship between Aprimo, Teradata and Aster and explain how their integration will help their clients leverage the ongoing Revolution in Retail to their advantage. Aprimo and its partners are working to build an omni-channel customer experience, as they believe connected channels lead to connected customers. Arthur will walk audience members through the roadmap Aprimo will use to keep its customers on the cutting edge of this Revolution in Retail.

"NRF is also a chance for me to highlight Aprimo's increasingly important work helping retailers improve their customer engagement," Arthur continued. "One of the biggest challenges in digital marketing right now is combining the physical and online worlds into a fluid overall campaign. A great example is our partnership with Microsoft. Marrying Aprimo software with Microsoft Tag mobile barcode technology allows customers to integrate tag data seamlessly into their digital marketing campaigns. This goes a long way toward creating the next generation of loyalty- and offer-management strategies."

The Microsoft/Aprimo partnership will allow marketers to use 2D barcodes to blend the digital and physical worlds, then incorporate Tag data into Aprimo's marketing strategy management tools to achieve intelligent 1-to-1 marketing. Intelligent 1-to-1 marketing comprises four pieces: mobile devices, triggers, social media and point of sale data. Aprimo's marketing tools already managed information from mobile devices, social media and the point of sale. Now with Aprimo and Microsoft Tags, marketers can combine triggers with other customer data and analyze this information for engagement and ROI metrics in real time to drive better campaigns.
