About Slazenger

As one of the world’s most established sports brands, Slazenger is well-known for its stylish sportswear covering cricket, tennis, swimming, hockey, golf, and much more. With over 150 years of experience, Slazenger offers a range of both amateur designs and professional-grade products.

Founded in 1881, the brand rose to global fame when champion tennis players requested Slazenger tennis balls for the Grand Slam event.

Slazenger also produced the official match ball for the 1966 FIFA World Cup.

USE CASE #1

Recovering lost revenue with individualized, cross-channel cart abandonment messaging

The challenge

Slazenger was looking to improve its cart abandonment rate. Cart abandoners represent an engaged audience that has completed most steps in the sales funnel, so they needed a customer experience solution that could effectively nudge these shoppers to complete their purchases. This strategy aimed to boost conversions and generate a stronger return on investment from their marketing technology stack.

The solution

Slazenger used Insider’s Architect and Smart Journey Creator under Sirius AI to design an optimized cart abandonment journey, identifying the best channels, wait times, and send times for maximum performance. Automated reminders were sent via Email, Web Push, and SMS, with coupon codes delivered through SMS to incentivize purchases.

All interaction data was synced with the Unified Customer Database (UCD) for offline use by sales teams. Slazenger also leveraged the Journey Live Stats feature to monitor customer interactions in real time and optimize performance proactively. These tools enabled Slazenger to re-engage cart abandoners effectively and boost conversions.

USE CASE #2

Enticing shoppers to return with targeted price drop notifications

The challenge

Slazenger aimed to enhance its email click-through rate (CTR) and conversion rate (CVR) by ensuring that their email messaging effectively captured users’ attention. Many customers browsed products without making purchases, often due to price sensitivity. Recognizing that discounts significantly influence buyer behavior, Slazenger sought to deliver relevant and targeted discount messaging that highlighted specific products of interest, maximizing the chances of conversion.

The solution

Slazenger used Insider’s Architect and Smart Segment Creator powered by Sirius AI to identify price-sensitive browsers through the High Discount Affinity predictive segment. This ensured that price-related incentives were targeted only at discount-conscious buyers, protecting overall profitability.

Price drop notifications were sent via Email and Web Push within 24 hours whenever the price of a product a user viewed, wishlisted, or abandoned in their cart dropped by 10% or more. This strategy created urgency, re-engaged hesitant shoppers, and converted them into buyers while maintaining profitability.

The results

12.1%

Architect helped us build a truly omnichannel marketing experience for our customers, enabling us to engage them on the right channels and at the right time. The tools under Sirius AI not only enhanced our marketing performance but also significantly boosted our team’s productivity. This resulted in a 12.1% increase in average click-through rate, demonstrating how effectively our messaging resonates through advanced segmentation and predictive AI capabilities.
