Recently, Jivox—a leader in personalized digital marketing
technology—commenced the integration of WEATHERfx data from IBM Watson
Advertising into its Jivox IQ platform, which powers dynamic content
optimization (DCO). WEATHERfx makes use of Watson Advertising’s repository of
real-time weather data to reveal deep insights that help marketers predict
consumer behavior. By processing weather elements, consumer data, and sales, Watson
Advertising pinpoints weather condition combinations that are most likely to
drive behavior and creates corresponding WEATHERfx triggers.
Through this integration, WEATHERfx triggers will use data,
AI-powered recommendations, and dynamic audience scoring to enable marketers to
create optimum marketing campaigns in real-time, as well as adjust visuals and
messaging based on local atmospheric conditions. This allows for hyper-personalized
content that gives an impetus to consumer actions.
WEATHERfx integration will allow Jivox users to benefit from
several added features; such as global weather data from The Weather Company,
an IBM Business; real-time weather data, refreshed every 15 minutes for over two
billion geographical locations; deeper insight into which products have the
highest demand under certain weather conditions; atomic triggers that
correspond to relative condition, activity, or product; dynamic targeting across
brand properties, online, and in-store spaces; and availability of data across
channels. WEATHERfx is included in Watson Advertising’s suite of data, media, and
AI technology solutions that reduce costs and boost decision-making across key aspects
of the marketing lifecycle.
