With a goal of inspiring everyone to run longer, faster, and farther, Brooks Running has always been focused on the runner, but they needed actionable customer data to fuel their strategy. Amperity gave them a single view of the runner and helped them win the race towards customer-centricity.

The challenge

Brooks always talked about putting the runner first, but lacked the insights needed to take action. Without a single view of the customer, they struggled to identify their needs and personalize effectively. 

Data was stuck in silos, and lacked both the accuracy and speed required for the team to move fast. They needed a unified view of the runner so that they could put their customer-centric mindset into practice and provide the right products and offerings.

The solution

By positioning Amperity at the center of their tech stack, the Brooks team created a Customer 360 that could be used across the enterprise, unlocking the ability to put their runner-centric mindset into action. By applying Amperity insights to their digital marketing efforts, they were able to create different audience segments, run tests within their marketing communications, and use personalization to put their best foot forward and ensure runners' needs were met. 

Amperity data gave every team, from digital marketing to customer service and operations, the insights and tools needed to position the runner at the center of their strategy, ultimately fueling personalization and accelerating business growth.

“Amperity is crucial to our tech stack. In order for us to have a 360 view of the runner and then use runner data for analytics and marketing segmentation, a CDP is necessary. Our tech stack is always changing, and very dynamic so the ease of plugging in partners is also critical. ”
