“SALESmanago is a great tool for anybody that faces the problem of falling email marketing effectiveness. 8 out of 10 customers of SALESmanago achieve such great results.” says Greg Blazewicz, CEO at SALESmanago.
European roll out of the project
SALESmanago was initially implemented in an online store of Yves Rocher in Poland, but shortly afterwards it was also rolled out to the company’s e-commerce sites in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia. By implementing marketing automation the company wanted to streamline the conversion of website visitors to customers and to differentiate offers taking into account customers’ transactional histories.
Yves Rocher uses the SALESmanago software for customer database segmentation (e.g. “new contact”, “newsletter subscriber”, “buyer”), lead nurturing (automatic educational e-mails with content about the company, its philosophy and natural cosmetics the company makes) and the integration with website contact forms for pulling data to personalize communication. It also uses it for dynamic 1-to-1 emails to reach out to people who visited the website but didn’t purchase anything, with a customized coupon or to remind them of the abandoned cart.
Other areas where the marketing automation software is used by Yves Rocher include sending birthday emails to customers with discount coupons for male/female products as well as recommending products on the website depending on users’ engagement level (i.e. how many times they visited the website before) and the content they frequently viewed.
Great conversion improvement
On average, SALESmanago has been responsible for 1,200 percent growth of Yves Roches’ email efficiency thanks to dynamic messages as compared to the bulk product communication. It has also contributed to inducing 30 percent of new users to buy suggested sets of products (such as shampoo and conditioner, with the information about combined purchase discount) recommended in dynamic boxes as their first purchase in the store. Offering cosmetics sets increases shopping cart value. The company has also increased its birthday communication efficacy by 200 percent, improved its dynamic emails average OR by 50 percent and its CTR by 15 percent.
