Persado, the leader in using AI to generate the best-performing marketing creative harnessing the power of words, today announced a strategic partnership with Emarsys, the only marketing platform that knows your industry. The integration combines Persado’s revolutionary platform for generating data-driven creative at scale, with Emarsys’ unmatched turnkey marketing solutions that support profitable revenue growth through smarter acquisition.

Joint Persado and Emarsys customers will now be able to generate, test and serve their marketing campaigns in minutes –– a fraction of the time of a traditional setup. Through the partnership’s API, campaign results will seamlessly flow back into Persado, giving clients access to quantitative and qualitative analysis on the variables that impact performance.

Happy Socks, a leading international and fashion-forward brand, turned to Persado and Emarsys to differentiate themselves during the most competitive marketing day of the year, Black Friday. Together, the partners executed a successful campaign that drove strong results and helped Happy Socks successfully engage customers.

“This integration is incredibly exciting because both Persado’s and Emarsys’ technologies are critical for driving success. Emarsys gives us freedom to easily setup and test campaigns, and Persado helps us empower our messages by generating the perfect language to improve our content’s performance and relevancy,” said Marc Verschueren, Director of Online Marketing and Sales at Happy Socks. “Coming out of our recent Black Friday campaign, we saw an average open rate uplift of 21 percent, and an average click-through-rate uplift of 37 percent. These technologies helped us stand out by taking more risks and thinking outside the box, all without worrying about missing the mark.”

“Today’s CMOs are bombarded with solutions claiming to drive ROI, so identifying the technologies and offerings that provide real value has become increasingly difficult. Marketing teams need products that intelligently achieve results and close the gap between goals and outcomes,” said Assaf Baciu, Co-Founder & SVP of Product and Engineering, Persado. “Through this partnership, we are uniting automation with intelligence. Persado’s AI fully unlocks the power of words and gives marketers certainty in their creative so that they can make every customer interaction count. We are thrilled to work together to give marketers the confidence they deserve.”

“We know that poor attempts to tailor communications will turn customers off. Marketers therefore rely on smart technology to automate and personalize communications across channels, at scale and often in real-time,” said Dave Littlechild, Global Head of Partnerships & Alliances at Emarsys. “This partnership helps us bridge the technology adoption gap that stands between a marketer and his or her ability to profitably driving more revenue. We are excited and look forward to the future as partners.”

The integration of Persado within Emarsys is complete and available to clients now. For more information, visit persado.com and emarsys.com.
