While there exists a lot research on these topics, only a minority of firms use them to their advantage. This study aims to tighten the link between research and business such that experimental methods can be used for the improvement of communication strategies in practice. Therefore, a systematic literature analysis is conducted, workshops are observed and documented and an empirical study is used to integrate single steps into a framework for the practical usage of user profiling and customer journey analysis.}, language = {en} }
