RAL Retail allows businesses to integrate point-of-sales, CRM, and online data in a matter of weeks
Merkle, a leading technology-enabled, data-driven performance marketing agency, today announced the launch of Rapid Audience Layer (RAL) Retail, a cloud-based, data management platform for retail marketers. The retail solution is now available to help support Merkle partners during the pandemic.
Geared for small to mid-sized retail businesses that want to quickly begin using a data-driven approach for their marketing programs, RAL Retail provides a buildable solution to activate data into audiences across media and channels. RAL Retail draws from Merkle’s deep expertise in building marketing databases for the retail vertical, with a speed to ROI that isn’t offered by any other database solution.
The solution enables marketers to track and measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, determine purchase behavior when buying specific goods and services, and refine marketing tactics based on buying motivations or influences. RAL Retail also allows marketers to identify which marketing channel customers are using the most to complete purchases and determine who will receive future marketing communications. By assisting in converting prospects into customers and making existing customers aware of new products, the solution is able to increase visits and cart activity for retailers.

We understand the important data that marketers need to uncover about customers and prospects, as well as the need to build insights, marketing campaigns, and results. Our goal is to make sure everyone has access to those resources, no matter the climate.”
