Challenges

Mazda aspired to deliver a customer experience that matched the quality of their vehicles. But with different technologies and data structures used at different dealerships, delivering a consistent experience across its dealer network had its challenges.

Solution

LavaBox worked with Mazda to define its customer experience North Star and break the vision into a manageable programme of work to bring it to life.

Impact

Now, Data 360 brings diverse data sources together, creating a unified foundation for customer insight and engagement. Salesforce Marketing Cloud personalises digital experiences and communications. Connected NPS journeys capture feedback across the customer lifecycle, and a dealer portal build on Experience Cloud flags customer issues in real time.

There's also an exciting road ahead, with AI-assisted vehicle guidance and dynamic website personalisation next on the roadmap.
