American Airlines is one of the world’s largest airline carriers moving nearly 200 million passengers annually. Email is a huge driver of revenue for the brand and they looked to increase revenue per customer while adding a deeper level of personalization based on individual customer preferences.
The Cheetah Digital Strategic Services Team developed a strategy that utilized the Customer Engagement Suite to reach that goal. First, Cheetah Experiences was deployed to collect the ever important zero-party data, including psychographic information about how, when and where customers would plan to fly. Those insights fed into Cheetah’s Journey Designer which put each customer on a unique email path that included hyper-personalized content and offers matching their needs.
They essentially moved from the typical ‘batch and blast’ email with a one-size-fits-all offer and delivered personalized, real-time offers based on known psychographic data declared directly from the customer. This led to increased open rates, a lift in engagement scores and ultimately a lift in revenue per member.
In this session we’ll discuss this strategy, the mechanics and the results with Erin Lomers, Senior Manager in the Marketing Comms Planning & Owned Channels at American Airlines. This is a must-attend event for anyone looking to unlock the power of zero-party data and lift revenue using personalization in any marketing channel.
