Selligent Also Named a Finalist for Best Marketing Cloud Company

Selligent Marketing Cloud, the intelligent omnichannel marketing and experience cloud platform, announced that it is the outright winner for Best Retail Campaign in the 2020 DMN Awards for its work with Vitacost.com (a Kroger company) on a recent personalized kinetic email campaign. Selligent is also named a finalist in the Marketing Cloud Company category. All winners will be announced and honored at the 2020 DMN Awards ceremony in New York City on February 20. DMN is a leading online resource for marketing data, strategy and technology.

The Selligent-powered Vitacost campaign was recognized for its successful approach to content-rich marketing leveraging Selligent’s robust, omnichannel marketing platform. The Vitacost marketing team leveraged Selligent to execute, manage and analyze its “Mystery Sale” kinetic email campaign, which directed customers to special landing pages to claim exclusive coupons for use on Vitacost.com. Vitacost created a new high-impact and interactive email campaign that generated immediate ROI and ensured that customers have a consistent and relevant experience.

The campaign’s four-step approach included a friction reduction strategy, personalized content based on universal customer profile data, smart segmentation based on Selligent’s AI capabilities, and precise real-time and engagement tracking to gauge how well content resonated with Vitacost.com’s target customers. The campaign delivered incredible results:

• 53 percent increase in click-to-open rates
• 33 percent lower unsubscribe rates compared to prior Mystery Sale campaigns
• 31 percent increase in revenue per email

“This campaign set a new benchmark of success for our team and proved that our business can thrive on a strategic and intelligent approach to digital marketing,” said Jennifer Palerino, head of marketing, digital at Kroger/Vitacost.com. “Our 2019 mystery sale campaign connected customers with our brand in a unique way and gave us more effective ways to engage and deliver what our customers want most from Vitacost.com. We’re thrilled that DMN has recognized this campaign as an industry stand-out and we’re excited to continue our success with Selligent as our technology partner.”
