YCP in Numbers
Key Challenges We Address
Proving Marketing Impact Across Fragmented Customer Journeys
- UK advertising spend reached £42.6 billion in 2024, yet journeys span search, social, retail media and stores, making reliable attribution harder.
- A unified measurement framework connects media, CRM and sales data, helping teams identify incremental value and redirect spend toward growth.
Converting Cautious Demand Into Profitable Revenue Growth
- With UK consumer confidence remaining volatile and online sales accounting for roughly 27% of retail spend, conversion and retention are under pressure.
- Customer segmentation, proposition testing and funnel redesign help commercial teams focus on high-value audiences and improve conversion economics.
Building Trust While Navigating Data and Consent Rules
- UK GDPR penalties can reach £17.5 million or 4% of global annual turnover, while consent requirements limit the data available for targeting and analysis.
- Privacy-aware data strategies strengthen consent capture, first-party data use and governance without sacrificing relevant customer engagement.
Turning AI Adoption Into Scalable Commercial Advantage
- Around 15% of UK businesses reported using AI in 2024, but many still lack clear use cases, quality data and controls for customer-facing deployment.
- Practical AI roadmaps prioritise high-impact sales and marketing use cases, combining governance, capability building and measurable implementation.
