They refined messaging, improved content relevance, and leveraged automation to enhance campaign performance. By fine-tuning these campaigns, they aimed to increase engagement rates and drive better results from existing customer interactions.

Lifecycle Communications Enhancement

A critical component of the strategy was to address lifecycle communications, particularly focusing on lapsation within the 6-12 month period. This included targeting prospect users who had last created an account during the initial 6-12 months, reaching them with different canvases to increase engagement. Massive Rocket provided strategic support to improve lifecycle messaging and re-engage customers who had become inactive.

The Results

Partnering with Massive Rocket, Back Market overhauled its CRM strategy to optimise data, enhance communication, and deliver personalised content. Here are the key outcomes of this collaboration.

Data Implementation & User Update

Massive Rocket successfully implemented advanced automation through a series of canvases designed to keep user data current and actionable. Key updates included automatically refreshing cart_items and browse_items attributes in response to user actions, like adding items to the cart or viewing products. Additionally, a canvas was set up to reset specific user attributes, such as cart_items and last_viewed_items, immediately after a purchase, ensuring accurate and up-to-date user profiles.

Price Drop Communication

To boost user engagement, Massive Rocket developed a targeted Price Drop communication strategy for U.S. users. A dedicated canvas was created to trigger emails and push notifications whenever a product's price drops. This initiative included the creation of a specialised email template and content blocks that managed all aspects of the communication, from logic to visual elements. The result was a streamlined and effective approach that kept users informed about price changes, driving higher engagement and conversion rates.

Your Device Feature Launch

The launch of the "Your Device" feature marked a significant milestone in Back Market’s efforts to increase user retention. This app-only feature provided users with regular tips and tricks for maintaining their devices, delivered through content cards every four days. Together we designed a promotional canvas to encourage app updates and ensure users had access to the latest features and tips. The journey was successfully implemented across multiple territories. 

Audience Strategy & Operational Execution

To maximise the impact of CRM efforts, we employed a detailed audience segmentation strategy. Users were segmented into high, mid, and low engagement levels, with campaigns tailored to each group. This approach allowed for more precise targeting and content delivery, which in turn led to increased user engagement. The operational strategy also included testing parameters to continually refine and optimise the effectiveness of campaigns.

Product Recommendations

A key enhancement to Back Market’s CRM strategy was the implementation of personalised product recommendations for users who had abandoned their shopping carts. This initiative involved sending targeted emails featuring products in the user’s local currency, with configurations for multiple markets, including Germany (DE), Spain (ES), France (FR), the United Kingdom (UK), Japan (JP), and the United States (US). The setup was designed to be easily scalable, allowing for quick expansion to additional countries by adjusting content blocks and currency with liquid logic.

Braze Integration with Attraqt

To further personalize the user experience, Massive Rocket integrated Braze with Attraqt, a platform that creates exceptional shopping experiences through AI-supported search, merchandising, and personalization solutions. This integration enabled dynamic product recommendations in email campaigns, featuring tailored widgets with product slots for categories like tablets, MacBooks, and smartphones based on the user’s last interactions.
