Avanci Partners With BlueVenn to Launch its Customer Data Platform and Omnichannel Marketing Tools Within France, Switzerland and Belgium

BRISTOL, England and TOURS, France, Nov. 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- BlueVenn, creator of a leading, award-winning Customer Data Platform (CDP), has signed an agreement with Avanci, France's most experienced multi-channel database marketing agency, to deliver its end-to-end CDP and multi-channel marketing hub to French speaking organisation across France, Switzerland and Belgium.

Under the terms of the partnership, Avanci will provide a full sales, implementation and support package to deliver BlueVenn's highly-regarded CDP technology in the agreed countries. The partnership is the first of its kind in France, with organizations set to benefit from Avanci's extensive expertise in database marketing, alongside BlueVenn's technology that provides well-known B2C brands, such as Ted Baker, Lego, Subaru, Daily Mail and the Washington Post, with a better understanding of their customers and the ability to deliver highly targeted, personalized and compliant marketing.

Research by London Research and BlueVenn in 2019 showed that CDP-equipped organizations were 2.5X more likely to have significantly outperformed their organization's main marketing goal in 2018 than those without. However, with CDP implementations in France scarce compared to the US and UK markets, and very few CDP vendors being committed to customizing their solutions for the French speaking market, the partnership offers an amazing chance for organizations that haven't already done so to leverage a CDP and deliver improved customer experiences, alongside better acquisition and retention results.

Bruno Carroi, MD at Avanci and one of the most respected database marketing professionals in France, is very excited about the new partnership: "I've been watching the CDP market with great interest as it's matured over the past few years, and CDPs are set to be the next big technology craze in France in 2020. It has commonly been a long and complex process for marketers to get access to all the data they need, clean, de-duplicated and unified into a single datamart, but all that can now be done through a single platform and the benefits are too numerous to count. We've chosen BlueVenn as our partner due to our previous relationship. They build robust, business-changing platforms and have the most complete end-to-end CDP offering for mid-market and small enterprise organisations, from whom we see the most interest."

Avanci is part of MV Group, one of the largest marketing cooperations in France, and the partnership will extend across the MV Group of companies to support the needs of its clients who require better access to data, a more integrated approach to database marketing, and would benefit from improved customer insights and multi-channel marketing capabilities.

Steve Klin, CEO at BlueVenn, was the first to extol the virtues of Avanci's rich heritage of data marketing: "BlueVenn has had a great, long term relationship with Avanci for over 10 years already, and now I'm excited to announce a new chapter together as we cooperatively launch the BlueVenn Customer Data Platform in France, Switzerland and Belgium. Avanci is a true leader in the world of database marketing and at the forefront of data analytics and multi-channel marketing. It is perfectly placed to help French speaking organisations to improve their multi-channel marketing and analytics capabilities with an end-to-end offering that combines optimised data management, world-class marketing technology, proven campaign processes and unrivalled data intelligence expertise. I'm delighted that BlueVenn can support Avanci and MV Group with their exciting growth strategy."
