Company Background

Company X is a mid-sized e-commerce business specializing in premium lifestyle products. With over 50,000 customers and an annual revenue of $5M, they were struggling with declining email engagement and stagnant sales growth.

Their existing email marketing approach was generic, sending the same messages to all subscribers regardless of their preferences, behavior, or purchase history. Open rates had dropped to 15%, and email-driven sales represented only 8% of total revenue.

The company needed a solution that could help them better understand their customers, deliver more relevant content, and ultimately drive more sales through email marketing.

The Challenge

Low email engagement rates (15% open rate, 2% click-through rate)

Generic, one-size-fits-all email campaigns

Limited customer segmentation and personalization

Manual campaign management consuming significant resources

Declining ROI on email marketing investments
