Decoding Your Superfans and Antifans To Unlock an “Unfair” Marketing Advantage

Do you have some customers who not only adore your brand but also make outsized contributions to your bottom line? And who always want more of your products?  On the other hand, are there customers who end up being a financial drain on your business?

A Quick, Easy, and Proven Way to Use Existing Data to Acquire New SuperFans

At DELVE, we’re privileged to work with digital marketers at organizations of all sizes across a wide range of industries. One thing they all have in common is their organization’s expectation of them to bring in net-new consumers during the Q4 “spending season”. Shortage on annual plans and the finance team saying to “cover 40% of the revenue gap with 25% of the time left to spare” doesn’t help either.
