Adobe Journey Optimizer (AJO), CRM

Overview

A top-five quick service restaurant (QSR) set out to modernize its customer relationship management (CRM) program and unlock the value of its investment in Adobe Journey Optimizer (AJO). The brand had been relying on outdated, batch-based customer communications that lacked timeliness, relevance, and deep personalization. These limitations stemmed from its legacy platform, Adobe Campaign Classic (ACC), which made real-time engagement difficult. As a result, the brand was falling behind other QSR competitors, with store traffic and sales declining.

The client turned to Concord’s Analytics practice – referred by its existing relationship with the Concord India team – based on Concord’s expertise in Adobe technologies. The goal was to build and execute CRM strategies, including email and push alerts, that would quickly demonstrate value from AJO and modernize customer communications.

While AJO was being implemented, Concord’s personalization team used a data-driven approach to identify low-hanging-fruit opportunities and delivered two early proof-of-concept (POC) journeys in ACC. Once AJO went live, the team executed real-time journeys and supporting logic across channels to accelerate the client’s CRM transformation.

Results

Concord’s work delivered fast, meaningful impact – exactly what the client needed to validate its investment in AJO. Key outcomes included:

  • Two-for-two POC wins: Both early POC journeys delivered statistically significant lifts in engagement and revenue.
  • $450K+ in annualized value: More than $450K in annualized impact was generated within the first month of AJO being live.
  • Rapid value realization: The team successfully proved value quickly, meeting the project’s core objective.
  • Foundation for ongoing modernization: Real-time email and push journeys now support the client’s continued CRM transformation and customer engagement strategy.
