Mattress Retail Store

Objective

A mattress manufacturer with 6 retail locations wanted to increase sales by targeting new movers to their markets. The client also wanted to drive traffic to its ecommerce site to defend against increasing competition.

Our Approach

  • We identified the client’s key geography and utilized our primary data sources to set up a monthly subscription-based integrated new mover marketing program.
  • Our fast-to-market postcard reached mailboxes within 2-3 days of their move as they were quickly making purchase decisions. We integrated and deployed 18 digital impressions over the course of 10 days targeting the same households, starting 1-2 days before the direct mail piece hit the mailbox.
  • We measured campaign results by monitoring website traffic, as well as foot traffic attribution for all locations.

Our Approach:

  • Targeted households would receive a direct mail piece, and a portion of those would also receive addressable geofencing digital display ads.
  • Extracted more than 107,000 addresses of loyal customers provided by the client to be targeted digitally.
