Instead of sending the same message to everyone, customer experience personalization means connecting with people over their favorite channels based on their unique behaviors, preferences, and history with your brand. For a retailer, that might mean sending a text about a new product based on what a customer has added to their favorites in your customer hub.

Why does customer experience personalization matter?
Consumers don’t just appreciate personalized experiences. They expect them. They want to feel like more than just a name on a list.
When your brand fails the relevance test, you risk losing business. But when you personalize the customer experience, you show customers you’re paying attention. This builds trust and strengthens customer loyalty.

How to get started with customer experience personalization in Klaviyo
- Connect your customer data. Integrate your ecommerce store and other business tools with Klaviyo. Customer data like purchase history, browsing activity, and profile information will sync automatically, creating a single view of every customer.
- Personalize the sequence of messages. Use conditional splits in flows to send different message paths based on behavior, preference, or profile—so each customer gets a journey that matches them, not a one-size-fits-all sequence.
- Personalize channel. Use channel affinity to reach people on the channel they prefer and engage with most (email, SMS, or push), instead of sending the same channel to everyone.
- Personalize what they see on your site. Use Customer Hub and the Group Membership API to change what a customer sees when they visit your website—for example, showing VIP-only content or offers based on their profile.
- Personalize product blocks. Surface the right products in every message: use preferences, historical purchases, and recommendations so the product block adapts to each recipient instead of showing the same catalog to everyone.
- Personalize the support experience. When a customer service rep helps a customer, they see that customer’s full profile in context—for example, whether they’re a VIP or a first-time buyer—so support can tailor the interaction and resolve issues faster.
- Personalize by lifecycle and attributes. Trigger flows on birthday or anniversary, or use custom objects (like children or pets in the household) to segment and message in a way that feels specific to each customer.
- Personalize send time. Use personalized send time so Klaviyo sends each message when that individual is most likely to open it, without extra effort from you.
Customer experience personalization is about showing customers you know them. Klaviyo gives you the data and AI to do it at scale.
