We truly had a painful time of manually executing all the tedious and repetitive tasks over and over again

Black Friday Struggles

SunglassLA seeks to provide quality eyewear that inspires and empowers customers who desire timeless fashion at an affordable price.

Like most fashion stores, sales campaigns are great opportunities for Sunglass LA to boost their revenue & increase customer experience. But launching campaigns & getting the words out to their target audience had become too much of a manual process.

Over the week of Black Friday’s big sales campaign, Sunglass LA had its eyes set on multiple discount programs for each group of customers based on their total lifetime spending. This required the team to execute quite a few challenging and arduous tasks, including:

  • Continually publishing & switching banner ads on the website every hour for many different discount programs;
  • Reorganizing and grouping each order that a customer had ever purchased in the store, and then calculating the total lifetime spending for each customer.
  • Segmenting the customer base into three main groups based on their total spending: Platinum (> $5000) – Gold (> $2000 and < $5000) – Silver (< $2000)
  • Applying different discount percentages (30% – 50% – 70%) for multiple product categories

No more chances for Summer Sales

What Sunglass LA needed for their biggest sales campaign yet was an automation tool that helped reorganise the store’s data and automate repetitive tasks. And they found exactly what they needed in Atom8 – The Commerce Automation Platform. With less than 10 minutes of workflow setup, the team was able to automate all the tedious tasks of the whole Summer Sales campaign.

 

The Automated Solution from Atom8

Content Automation: Auto-publish/unpublish content on the website (themes, blog posts, banners, etc.)

Pre-schedule switches between 12 website banners for 12 different offers & deals, once every 2 hours throughout the whole campaign.
