Mamas & Papas has 40 years of experience in helping proud parents grow their family, their way. With everything from award-winning pushchairs and furniture to baby clothing and interiors, their products and services are designed to support all kinds of families on their parenting journeys.
Challenge
Seamless cross-channel launch
For the first time in five years, Mamas & Papas was adding a new member to its award-winning pushchair family. The massive product launch needed to be communicated across all channels in a consistent cross-channel campaign. It needed to convey the quality and expertise parents expect from the brand while demonstrating its stylish yet practical design.
Solution
Leveraging Dotdigital and social media integration for engaging, and targeted campaigns
Mamas & Papas built a product launch email that was rich in content, portraying the quality of its new pushchair. It wanted its copy to be insightful and educational to strengthen its tagline: “no one gets parenting better”.
To ensure it didn’t miss any potential customers Mamas & Papas utilized Dotdigital’s social connector. This empowered the brand to build audiences based on contacts who had engaged with its launch email or had viewed the product online without converting. Those audiences were then targeted with personalized marketing on social media channels.
It used a similar technique to target unconverted contacts via paid search and retargeting ads using videos to engage customer during this cross-channel experience.
