CMSWire had outgrown its original blog platform and was looking for an enterprise level CMS that could schedule publishing of around 250 articles a month, manage an editorial workflow for articles, events, and white papers, and integrate with Marketo marketing automation.Sitecore + Coveo were the winning combination for a scalable digital experience platform. With Coveo’s AI Search we were able to create resource directory for all research and white paper assets. Metadata is seamlessly leveraged to provide an intuitive, faceted menu. The assets are integrated with Marketo landing pages and Google Analytics campaigns. We implemented a robust tagging system which generates the majority of content displaying in content blocks and menus sitewide.Content migration planning was a big focus, with 18,000 articles and metadata to map from the legacy platform to Sitecore. We customized Sitecore’s standard URL processing system to preserve the original URL’s of existing articles. With hundreds of author profiles, tags, categories, and other metadata we needed to plan migration entirely with automated scripts.

Rabobank wanted their visitors to have a seamless customer experience. As a community bank it was important that customers felt that the website was tailored to their location. Personalization was achieved through dynamic content displays based on zip code.Cylogy used MaxMind GeoIP2 Intelligence to determine a visitor’s zip code based on their ip address. Call to action modules across the site were designed and configured to display dynamic content based on the business segment the customer was visiting (Personal, Business, Commercial, Agriculture), and their zip code.Customers were provided with all the resources they needed without needing to search around the site. A single call to action module could include the closest branch address, map, application links, and contact information. Customers interested in mortgage loans were shown the name of their local representative. Clicking on their representative’s name displayed a pop up contact form that sent directly to the local representative.Rabobank was committed to delivering modern digital tools for customer convenience, but also maintaining a local connection with their customers. Large landscape photographs of all the branch regions were used to customized the homepage. The localized imagery was based on zip code and gave a personal touch to the experience.
