# How Faraday's next best offer solution can boost your business

In today’s competitive market, delivering personalized experiences to customers is more important than ever. Faraday’s “next best offer” solution provides businesses with a powerful recommendation system to ensure that prospects, leads, and customers are always presented with the most relevant product or service. Whether you’re running an e-commerce platform or managing customer relations, our advanced AI-driven tool helps you maximize revenue, improve customer engagement, and build lasting relationships.

## The importance of personalized recommendations

Personalized recommendation systems are nothing new—Amazon popularized them back in the late 1990s with their "People Who Bought This Item, Also Bought" feature. By leveraging browsing and purchase behavior, Amazon was able to suggest relevant products to customers, boosting both customer satisfaction and revenue. Today, product recommendation systems have grown more sophisticated, harnessing vast amounts of data and machine learning techniques to offer even more accurate suggestions.

The numbers speak for themselves:

- A [2023 Barilliance study](https://www.barilliance.com/personalized-product-recommendations-stats/) found that personalized recommendations account for an average of 31% of e-commerce revenues.
- [McKinsey reports](https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/retail/our-insights/how-retailers-can-keep-up-with-consumers) that 35% of what consumers buy on Amazon comes from its recommendation engine.
- According to [Moengage](https://www.moengage.com/blog/smart-recommendations/), 49% of consumers have purchased items they didn’t intend to buy thanks to personalized recommendations.
- A separate [McKinsey study](https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/retail/our-insights/personalizing-the-customer-experience-driving-differentiation-in-retail) found that personalization can drive a 10% to 15% increase in sales-conversion rates.

These stats underscore the power of personalization in shaping consumer behavior and driving business results.

## How recommendation systems work

There are several common types of recommendation systems, each with its own approach:

- **User-based collaborative filtering**: This method compares users’ past behaviors (such as purchases or ratings) with similar users to suggest new products. For instance, if two users have a shared interest in a particular set of items, the system will recommend products that one user likes to the other.
- **Content-based filtering**: This approach relies on product descriptions and user profiles. It recommends items based on the attributes a user has liked in the past. If a user enjoys superhero movies like _Iron Man_, the system might recommend other superhero-themed content.
- **Hybrid recommendation systems**: Combining collaborative and content-based filtering, hybrid systems deliver more comprehensive recommendations. For example, Netflix uses a hybrid approach by analyzing both users’ viewing habits and the content they rate highly to provide tailored recommendations.

## Faraday’s hybrid+ recommendation system

Faraday’s “next best offer” solution takes hybrid recommendation systems a step further. Our system not only combines collaborative and content-based filtering but also integrates FIG data (Faraday’s proprietary data enrichment) to provide even more precise and personalized suggestions. Our model continuously updates offer recommendations for each individual in your pipeline, ensuring your recommendations are always fresh and relevant.

One key differentiator is that Faraday can provide personalized recommendations in real time, as soon as a consumer identifies themselves—whether through login, purchase, or any other action.
