THE CHALLENGE

Sweaty Betty was facing their typical retailer challenge of falling sales following the annual summer trading peak. Keen to turn the tide and continue maximising on the rapid growth seen within the activewear sector during COVID, Sweaty Betty contacted Reward to discuss options for a Personalized Card Linked Offer (PCLO) campaign.

Their goal, to drive profitable sales from new and lapsed customer segments.

THE OUTCOME

  • Sweaty Betty was able to access more than 310k target prospects who spent with activewear competitors from the Reward pool.
  • The targeted campaign drove brand new customer sales and prompted lapsed customers to spend with Sweaty Betty once again.
  • Not only were customers driven to spend with Sweaty Betty, but they were high-value, big-basket customers.

The results speak for themselves and far exceeded the objectives set up front;

THE CAMPAIGN STRATEGY

DATA & TARGETING

  • Using historical transaction data derived from Reward banking partner programmes we were able to identify and target customers actively spending in the activewear sector but NOT with Sweaty Betty.
  • We also targeted customers who had spent with Sweaty Betty previously but had lapsed to key competitors.

OFFER CO-CREATION

  • Working with Sweaty Betty we co-created offers, agreeing appropriate incentives to lure customers from their traditional spending behaviour, shifting to purchase from Sweat Betty all without devaluing the Sweaty Betty brand.
  • Optimising offer rates to maximise ROI was key, so we designed a testing strategy to identify rates best suited to generate a customer response at each point in the buying journey.

MARKETING

  • The offer was presented to the targeted, and closed user group, through a series of marketing campaigns including fortnightly bank newsletters, banking websites and apps where Sweaty Betty was featured as a ‘top offer’.

“The results of the campaign exceeded expectations and we were especially pleased with our significant increase in share of wallet, considering the competition in the activewear market. The icing on the cake was a recognition of this collaborative effort at the Performance Marketing Awards in 2022.”
