Coming soon, Mailchimp’s revenue intelligence will offer powerful AI and automation tools to help businesses find and win untapped revenue
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU), the global financial technology platform that makes Intuit TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks, and Mailchimp, today previewed its new revenue intelligence (RI) technology, a system of always-on predictive and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) models designed to proactively give marketers opportunities to win more revenue.
Building on the launch of Intuit Assist last year, Mailchimp’s revenue intelligence will soon deploy Intuit’s powerful and relevant data through cutting-edge AI technology to benchmark customers’ marketing against billions of industry-specific financial inputs from Intuit QuickBooks and marketing performance data points, recommend the right time to target customers, and generate more personalized and revenue-driving content. This technology was unveiled today at Mailchimp’s annual From: Here, To: There London customer event. Additionally, Mailchimp is announcing the continued expansion of SMS features in the UK, after the initial US launch last June*.
“Predicting what will spur different customers to explore, to spend, and stay loyal remains one of the most complicated challenges for marketers—and simultaneously one of their biggest growth opportunities,” said Rania Succar, SVP and General Manager of Mailchimp. “By building on our AI-driven innovations within Intuit’s data-rich platform, our customers can make smarter, more integrated business decisions that simultaneously grow their customer base and put more money in their pockets.”
For years, Intuit has been at the forefront of AI, including releasing Intuit Assist for Mailchimp in 2023—designed to help marketers and business owners save time, send more effective marketing campaigns, and make smarter marketing decisions. Mailchimp’s new RI system will integrate seamlessly with marketers’ daily workflow, turning over 60 petabytes of user interactions across the Intuit ecosystem into tools that can create personalized action plans that increase marketing effectiveness without creating additional learning curves for marketers.
Introducing Revenue Intelligence
With revenue intelligence capabilities in Mailchimp, marketers will be able to maximize their ROI by:
“We’ve been quite good at customer acquisition, and we want to focus more on customer loyalty and retention. Email is a big part of helping us to achieve that,” explains Charlotte Howell, digital marketing and ecommerce manager at Grafton International, during an early preview of Mailchimp’s revenue intelligence system last month. “Utilizing AI to help with analytics and finding out more about customers—really getting a clear idea of who they are and what their shopping habits are—is key for us.” Howell will be among the first users putting this tech to work as a part of an exclusive test group.
“It’s kind of what we’ve been waiting for,” she explained, citing the potential increase in revenue and time saved as benefits to look forward to. “Rather than having to dig through pools of data, the tool will push me to make decisions easier and quicker and more effectively.”
Expanding SMS Functionality
Following last year’s release of SMS for US-based customers, Mailchimp also announced plans to expand SMS functionality to the UK—equipping UK-based customers with a 360-degree subscriber view that pulls all data sources into one place, allowing businesses to maximize engagement, track ROI, and streamline analytics reporting.
“SMS marketing has grown to become a critical component to engaging consumers,” said Michelle Taite, Chief Marketing Officer at Mailchimp. “Our US customers are seeing up to 16x ROI in the first 3 months after launching their first SMS campaign**, and with over 93% deliverability rates***, Mailchimp’s SMS is an incredibly reliable tool for building a meaningful relationship with your customers and a powerful way to drive engagement, conversion, and brand loyalty.”
SMS and email are among businesses’ most effective omnichannel marketing strategies when used together. The combination provides a direct and immediate way for businesses to reach their audience with time-sensitive promotions or reminders, as most consumers carry their mobile phones with them at all times.
Availability
Marketers worldwide can sign up for the revenue intelligence early access updates to apply AI to optimize their targeting and content strategy in practical, meaningful ways soon.
Expanded SMS functionalities are now available to UK customers.
