Challenges
-
Intense competition with other companies on the market – The company competes with the global brands, which long ago marked their presence on the market and which spend greater budget on marketing. As acquiring new customers is difficult, keeping the current ones is becoming a crucial part of the business.
-
Increasing customer loyalty – The character of the product allows repeatability of the purchases in the long time perspective. Ensuring good quality and good communication can encourage the customer to come back to the shop in the future.
-
Enhancing efficiency of marketing campaigns – Marketing communication must be strongly profiled so it can adjust to various preferences and requirements of customers. Despite of the limited amount of products, it is easy to choose wrong content and inadequate time of communication.
-
Increase in sales – Before applying marketing automation solutions, the sales activities were performed in a traditional way, meaning that it lacked personalization and the activities were aimed at the masses. The scope of possible solutions was broad and required suitable priorities so the first effects could be visible as soon as possible.
Solutions
-
Contact forms for acquiring new contacts – Contact forms were implemented for every language version of the online shop which enabled subscription to newsletters and info on discounts. The contact form enables acquiring the data of customers who are interested in the offer.
-
Behavioral segmentation of customers – Each visitor on the website who is interested in various categories of products is assigned to a suitable segment. In this way, a further personalisation of content is possible.
-
Traffic generation by means of periodic multichannel communication – Newsletter subscription forms, the integration of contact forms on the shop platform and subscription to web push communication enable sending personalized offers to a great number of contacts within a few channels and generating the website traffic.
-
Dynamic offer adjustment to a customer – Customers receive offers which are adjusted to their needs – only for products available in their sizes. In this branch it is a key factor that decides on further interest, keeping the customer on the website and the conversion.
