"Thanks to the marketing transformation, we have switched to personalized communication with clients and increased the efficiency of our team. The consolidation of five tools into one allows us to respond more quickly to client needs.“
What did the transformation of B2C marketing at Česká spořitelna bring?
In 2020, Česká spořitelna (ČSAS) joined Erste Group’s long-term strategy, focused on transforming the approach to customer relationships from product sales to maintaining clients’ financial health. Historically, ČSAS used five different applications to communicate with clients.
The new strategy created new requirements for the future marketing of ČSAS, including the elimination of one-time communications, minimizing irrelevant communication, and simplifying a complex IT ecosystem.

Campaigns now offer relevant products to specific clients, support financial well-being, and contribute to the bank’s growth.
Improvement of customer experience
Personalized approach and relevant offers lead to a significant improvement in the overall user experience.
Availability of customer journey creation
The transition to Salesforce simplified campaign and customer journey creation, democratized the platform, and reduced the involvement of IT specialists.
