Retail Chain:
The Challenge:
One of Israel's biggest retail chains, which sends 7 coupons a month to all
members of its loyalty club, seeks to increase sales using a targeted coupon campaign.
The Solution:
Sagarmatha's PPB system analyzed the loyalty club's database (compiled mainly
from POS data), and produced an optimized set of 7 personalized coupons for
each customer (from 100 potential options). The target function, as defined by
the retailer, was to maximize sales. The system checks performance on a monthly
basis and dynamically improves performance.
The Result after 2 Months:
Sales increased by 6.5% and the use of coupons tripled (more than 9%) when compared
with the control group. More than 60% of loyalty club members who visited the chain
store used at least one coupon.
The Result after 12 months:
Sales increased by 17%. Every second customer who visited the chain store
used at least one coupon. The number of loyal customers to the chain doubled.
