In this week's episode of the 'Hello $FirstName' podcast we'll be discussing the first chapter in part 3 of the book: THE PREREQUISITES FOR PERSONALIZATION. Chapter 15 is called ’THE BASIC FOUNDATIONS FOR PERSONALIZATION'.
To help us getting to the bottom of this, I've had the opportunity to spend a really good time discussing matters with Jesper Damsgaard, SVP of Ecommerce at the world famous jewelry company Pandora.
In the episode we cover the following points:
Jesper's career path and his work at Pandora
The business of Pandora, business model, concept, the scale
What the charms mean to the company - and to the customers
Which types of personalization that Pandora is using
If you can start too early as a company 
... or as a marketing practitioner
What needs to be in place before doubling down on personalization
The balance between brand building, Top-of-mind awareness and Personalization
The balance between Owned and Paid media
Which data, that Pandora collects
How personalized their customer journey is and finally...
Jesper's own favourite example of personalization that he has experienced personally
