Brief

Interlight, a prominent online retailer specializing in bulbs and batteries, operates within a fiercely competitive market where customer retention is as vital as acquisition.

Facing a plateau in sales growth, Interlight embarked with the help of Noetic on a strategic initiative to invigorate its marketing approach through targeted email campaigns.

Our strategy employed A/B testing to refine email messaging and CTAs, optimizing for higher engagement and conversions. Then by leveraging detailed customer behavior analysis to identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities, while implementing highly-personalized and automated email flows we were able to deliver targeted content and enhance customer interaction efficiency.

Strategy

01

A/B Testing

Deployed rigorous A/B testing to identify and refine the most effective email messaging and CTAs.

02

Customer Behavior Analysis

Leveraged comprehensive analysis of customer engagement and seasonal sales data to uncover opportunities for upselling and cross-selling depending on the season.

03

Personalization and Hyper Segmentation

Developed sophisticated, automated and segmented email marketing flows to deliver personalized content based on customer preferences, behavior, demographics and purchase history.

01

A/B Testing

Interlight utilized A/B testing extensively to refine their email messaging and calls-to-action. By systematically testing these elements on segments of their email list, Interlight could identify which variations resonated best with their audience. This data-driven approach enabled them to optimize their emails for higher open rates, click-through rates, and ultimately, conversions.

Challenge

The biggest challenge was uncertainty over which email content and CTAs would resonate the most with Interlight’s target audience. Extensive and rigorous A/B methodology will allow us to unfold a clearer vision and direction within the industry.

Method

Conducted rigorous A/B testing with variations in subject lines, content, and CTAs to determine the most effective combinations.

Through methodical testing across different segments of their email list, Interlight determined the most effective variations that connected best with their audience. This analytical approach allowed them to enhance their emails, achieving increased open rates, click-through rates, and ultimately, conversions.


Outcome

All in all, we were able to identify high-performing email elements that significantly improved open rates and click-through rates, leading to enhanced engagement and conversions.

Open Rate: consistently above 50%

Click Rate: exceeding 2% for campaigns and over 6% for all automations

Unsubscribe Rate: consistently below 0.5%

02

Customer Behavior Analysis

To identify opportunities for upselling and cross-selling, we conducted thorough analysis of customer engagement and sales data. This involved examining metrics such as purchase history, browsing behavior, interaction patterns with previous emails and important upcoming dates/seasons. By gaining insights into what products customers were interested in or likely to purchase based on their behavior, Interlight could strategically design email campaigns to promote related or complementary products.

Challenge

Uncover potential upsell and cross-sell opportunities from existing customer and behavioral data and find a way to connect with the customers in other ways than just presenting the product by itself.

Method

Analyzed detailed customer engagement metrics, trends forecast and sales data to understand purchasing behavior and preferences. Understanding these external factors was crucial to devise a more tactical strategy that took into account each customer’s unique environment.

Outcome

Identified strategic opportunities to recommend related products based on customer interests, resulting in increased average order value and improved customer satisfaction.

Significant increase in average click rate from 1% to over 5%.

25.6% rise in conversion rate.

03

Personalized Automation

We focused on creating highly-personalized email marketing flows that were automated to streamline their communications with customers. Personalization involved tailoring email content based on individual customer preferences, behavior, and purchase history. Automated email flows were set up to deliver timely messages triggered by specific customer actions or milestones, such as abandoned carts, recent purchases, or special occasions.

Challenge

Scaling personalized customer communication while maintaining efficiency. In the case of Interlight, we needed to work through hundreds of different product variations, purchase history, specific dates and more in order to deliver a personalized flow for each and everyone in our target audience. 

Method

Designed and implemented automated email marketing flows triggered by customer actions and preferences.
Timely messages triggered by specific customer actions or milestones, such as abandoned carts, recent purchases, or special occasions, were delivered through automated email flows. These sequences were meticulously designed to enhance engagement and cater to individual customer needs effectively.

Results

This approach not only saved time and resources but also ensured that customers received relevant and timely communications, thereby nurturing relationships and encouraging repeat purchases.

Remarkable growth surpassing industry benchmarks with a 344% increase in average click rate.
