Retention Marketing

Retention marketing is vital for companies who are serious about growth. 

Our retention marketing strategies focuses on increasing customer lifetime value, retention rates and reducing churn.

Data and analytics plays an important role in understanding behaviours that create retention. Our data driven approach to retention marketing will engage your existing customers and increase loyalty.

What is Retention Marketing?

Retention marketing focuses on marketing activity to your existing customers to get them to repeat an action. The objective is to increase engagement to turn customers into loyal customers and brand advocates.

Whilst retention marketing is necessary for types of businesses that have a focus on growth, it is especially important with ecommerce and subscription based businesses.

Benefits of Retention Marketing

Other than obvious that retention marketing will result in higher value longer term customers and increase in purchase frequency, there are other benefits to be aware of:

  • Existing customers are more profitable as they don't require as much cost as acquiring new customers.

  • It's easier to forecast existing customer sales based on purchase history.

  • It's easier to predict their purchase behaviour.

  • Based on preferences and historical behaviour you are able to craft personalised marketing campaigns.

  • Conversion rates are typically higher for existing customers than new customers.

  • Existing customers provide data and insights that help shape your data driven marketing strategies.

  • Existing customers will promote your brand and refer business to you.
