Over the past few years, we’ve seen a significant increase in the number of Braze customers choosing to pair our platform with a CDP solution, which are intended to help companies unify and better manage data. Let's look into the how and why.

With the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) scheduled to begin enforcement on January 1, 2020, the privacy revolution kicked off by GDPR has come home to roost for American companies. So what does it mean for your brand?

With billions of dollars in retail sales taking place every year during Black Friday and the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, brands need to seize every opportunity to get in front of consumers and make a real connection. To understand how customers engage with brands during the holidays, Braze analyzed the billions of messages sent by leading retail brands over the past three years (2017–2019) to reveal insights on how to most effectively reach consumers during the holiday season.

In an age when privacy is a hot-button issue, customers expect a more sophisticated experience when they share their data with brands. It’s mission-critical for brands to demonstrate value in their customer’s moments of need by acting on insights gleaned from their data. Otherwise, the value of customer data—and the value of your brand in the eyes of your customer—begins to degrade.
