Australia-based sleep supplies brand Calming Blanket sells weighted blankets, toys, and other bed accessories. They’ve made it their life mission to improve the overall quality of life of their customers with better sleep and comfort through their products.
Over time, they’ve scaled enough to launch their UK branch. However, wanted to scale even higher by optimizing their email systems to generate more revenue beyond their current plateau.
Chronos Agency needed to increase Calming Blanket’s email revenue while growing their subscriber list, maintaining healthy deliverability, and building trust with their customers.
The plan was that in doing so, Calming Blanket would bring their email revenue from 27% up to 35% of their store’s overall revenue with at least 20% of that coming from automated emails, and 15% from manual emails.
Initially, Calming Blanket was already generating a healthy 27% of their store revenue through email.
While good at first glance, the underlying issue was that their email systems could be generating more than that. In fact, they SHOULD be generating more…if not for efficiency issues with how their emails were set up.
This was key to maintaining Calming Blanket’s healthy deliverability. To do so, we set up target-specific campaigns aimed at users who’ve shown high interest.
This helped open up cross-sell and upsell opportunities with Calming Blanket’s customers—increasing their sales further.
Additionally, we also used retargeting emails to give a chance to customers who missed out on the first campaign sent out.
Aside from the usual revenue-generating emails, social content and social proof emails helped seal the deal when upselling products.
Social proof such as customer reviews helped Calming Blanket build customer trust and solidified customer loyalty. One thing you can pick up from this is tying in your social proof with your upsell campaigns to boost your conversions further.
Frequent A/B testing kept Calming Blanket’s email systems updated on customers’ needs and preferences—keeping customers engaged.
What subject lines customers were more likely to click on, the best send times that sync up with customers’ online activity, and subtle preference tweaks for flows were just some of elements we tested to ensure Calming Blanket’s content stayed dynamic and relevant to their lists.
Specifically, Chronos made sure Calming Blanket’s campaigns were mobile-friendly to maintain a smooth and great user experience.
Since 64% of Calming Blanket’s users were on mobile, we made sure to design emails to look good on both desktop AND mobile devices.
If your emails don’t look good or let alone function properly on mobile… then your customers are more likely to just close your emails and move on.
