What happened
M1 Finance uses Hightouch as a Composable CDP on top of its data warehouse, replacing in-house pipelines and letting marketers build audiences with a no-code UI. Audiences sync automatically to Salesforce Marketing Cloud to power lifecycle email campaigns.
Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Hightouch and M1 Finance, not ours.
- 3-5 hours“Saved 3-5 hours weekly in data pipeline maintenance”
- 100+“Built 100+ marketing audiences in Hightouch”
- 750+“Improved targeting capabilities by increasing customer data attributes from 150 to ~750+”
Since adopting Hightouch, all of the in-house pipelines have been replaced with automated Hightouch syncs, and the integration with M1’s core dbt models has all but eliminated marketing-specific engineering work.
Before we had Hightouch, the number of teams and steps required to go from an idea to an actual campaign was unmanageable. With Hightouch, we can go from an idea to a campaign in minutes.
