Sinch and Blueshift to extend customer engagement into conversational channels
Sinch, a global leader in cloud communications and mobile customer engagement, has teamed with Blueshift to offer rich, powerful, two-way conversational experiences in a host of channels in Blueshift’s App Hub and Journey Builder.
Sinch’s Conversation API is a single, unique API through which businesses can communicate with people over multiple mobile channels such as Instagram, Facebook Messenger, SMS, MMS, RCS and WhatsApp. It is used by several of the largest technology companies in the world.
The Blueshift and Sinch solution is well positioned to meet the current and emerging trends of conversational marketing needs, demanding dynamic and hyper personalized interactions, no matter what channel their consumers prefer and no matter where they do business.
By employing Sinch’s Conversation API, Blueshift can empower brands to drive engagement and commerce through helpful nudges such as back-in-stock updates, price drop alerts, product recommendations and more on conversational channels. Marketers can easily orchestrate a unified experience across conversational channels and traditional marketing channels like email, paid media, and mobile notification.
Blueshift’s Smart Hub helps brands unify customer data from multiple sources, determine the next best action using predictive intelligence, and deliver personalized engagement across multiple channels.
Blueshift customer CarParts.com currently uses SMS in their campaigns and is looking forward to expanding their approach with two-way conversations. “Evolving beyond one-way messages to two-way conversations is the future of marketing,” said Houman Akhavan, CMO of CarParts.com. “We are excited about the potential of Blueshift and Sinch’s new solution to drive real-time, meaningful customer interactions across various touchpoints.”
