Shifting behavior

We developed and delivered a multi-channel campaign that utilized a universally appealing, highly-promotable gift to encourage trial and repeat purchase. QR code and embedded links directed operators to a central ordering site. Qualifying orders earned the operator a personalized, branded thank you kit with aspirational gift.

Overflowing results

Even without a central online hub, the loyalty program exceeded the client’s expectations, delivered repeat purchases, and produced a strong halo effect.
