BOSTON, May 15, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- e-Spirit, maker of the FirstSpirit Digital Experience Platform (DXP), today announced that Blum, a leading global manufacturer of furniture fittings with over $2 billion in revenue, has relaunched 70 websites supporting 30 languages using e-Spirit FirstSpirit Digital Experience Platform (DXP). FirstSpirit DXP allows marketers to tailor each Blum website to the unique needs and languages of each region, reducing time-to-market for new products and creating personalized, content-driven digital experiences across any device.

As competition from global manufacturers continues to rise, Blum explored ways to enhance the shopping experience with customers as well as tap into the power and ease of use of mobile platforms. In an effort to deploy a "Mobile First" digital presence across multiple countries, Blum selected FirstSpirit DXP to increase sales by engaging customers based on their unique interests and creating a personalized buying experience across any channel.

In addition, FirstSpirit DXP allows Blum marketers to understand customer behavior in real-time due to its AI-powered analytics to create a more personalized digital experience. Personalization is critical to creating a positive customer experience and, according to an Evergate, Inc. report, 2018 Trends in Personalization, 98% of those surveyed in the report agree that personalization helps advance customer relationships.
