By telling stories andallowing personal connections made with the products to come back into the experience.
1. InspireInspiration must come first, whether through our eye-opening content, captivating film, sensory marketing or feel.The advantage of bricks and mortar stores are the touchable, livable nature of the experience that is so addictive.To create true connections, and eventually nurture a love affair with a brand, consumers must experience desire or excitement of some kind.
2. Make space for ‘froth’Once you’ve crafted an addictive physical and digital retail experience, it’s time to make the most of the buzz and empower consumers by giving them the space to make noise about you.Note: Olapic reports that brands engaging with consumers through consumer-generated photo sharing have seen up to 3x increase in conversion.
3. RewardA further way to connect with your all-powerful tribe voice and encourage further contribution from consumers is to reward them for their efforts.This can be anything from a discount on your products for each photo they share, or a piece of branded personalisation made sharable, like Burberry’s #MadeForcampaign….
GET YOUR ANALYTICS RIGHT!OUR RUNWAY DID AND CACHED IN BIG TIME:https://www.renttherunway.com/ourrunwayData has always been an invaluable asset to Rent the Runway, as its analytics team uses it to make decisions on everything from marketing to operations and inventory buys.Early on, RTR's data illustrated that 25% of its customers were adding an accessory to their designer dress orders, so RTR jumped on the trend.Strong data has proven to be essential in monitoring customer trends, and capitalizing on new opportunities for revenue growth. Our Runway, the startup's search engine of UGC photos, was launched in part because women who had viewed photos of dresses on real women were 200% more likely to rent than those who have viewed a dress on a model.
