Successful realignment: customer club as the key to increasing sales
A leading, family-run company in the garden and flower center sector decided to expand its business model. The aim was to transform the pure sales area into an experience space with stores, restaurants and a market hall character. This transformation was to be supported by the creation of a customer club to efficiently manage customer data and develop targeted marketing strategies. The new marketing mix comprised various measures, including direct marketing and cross-media campaigns.
In 2018, the decision was made to develop the existing garden and flower center away from a pure retail operation into an “event business” with stores, restaurants and a market hall character. In future, it should primarily be about spending time there. Families should specifically visit the locations to spend time there and make sales “on the side”. The expanded business model was to be accompanied by a sensible expansion of the marketing mix. The only advertising measure at the time, the high-circulation supplement, was to be supplemented with targeted advertising. There was a great need for advice on how the marketing mix could be sensibly expanded.
Strategic measures to strengthen the brand and customer loyalty
The company is taking various measures to strengthen the brand and position it in the desired market hall character. A central element is the acquisition and collection of customer data through the introduction of a customer card. This data is used to accompany the transformation to an “event business” with suitable direct marketing campaigns.Another important step is the development of a customer club as an additional touchpoint in customer experience management (CEM). By managing and processing addresses for specific target groups, conclusions can be drawn from the purchasing behaviour of customers in order to place more targeted advertising and minimize wastage. These findings are also used to open up new business areas.
In order to implement these measures effectively, a comprehensive range of cross-media services is used, including e-mail newsletters, microsites and websites based on a SaaS model (Software as a Service) as well as all necessary print and direct marketing services.
Compliance with the GDPR plays a central role here. For example, legally compliant advertising consent including a double opt-in procedure is obtained for email marketing. The end customer also has the option of entering their data digitally themselves, with a temporary customer card that can be used from the very first time they log in on their smartphone.
