Website Redevelopment
•Angelsmith previously redesigned and developed a new website for The Hess Collection, restructuring their consumers path to purchase, creating landing wine landing pages and configuring analytics tracking.
Intercept & Influence™
•Angelsmith used its proprietary consumer insights process to better understand how the winery’s consumers use different digital channels to make a wine purchase decision. That information, combined with digital advertising campaigns over the course of the year, provided a roadmap to Intercept & Influence™ the Hess wine consumer on Cyber Monday.
REVENUE PREDICTION & ADVERTISING INVESTMENT:
BACKGROUND
LESS THAN A WEEK OF PREPARATION
24 HOURS TO GET IT RIGHT
INCREASED AD COSTS & COMPETITION
POTENTIAL CANNIBALIZATION OF THE MONTH’S SALES
CHALLENGES
Digital Advertising Sales Tracking
•We configured analytics to track sales conversions on the website, so we could accurately optimize our marketing communications and digital advertising through out the Cyber Monday campaign and evaluate results in real time.
Sales Conversion Rates For Each Section of The Website:
•Knowing the conversion rates for each section of the website and the average click through rates (CTRs) for each advertising channel, gave us the information we needed to make an accurate advertising investment recommendation.
Pricing
•The Hess Collection’s DTC team created a rock solid wine pricing and shipping strategy.
STRATEGY
EXECUTION
Digital Advertising Goal Definition
•The potential impact of Cyber Monday ecommerce sales necessitated an appropriate advertising investment. Essentially we rethought their annual advertising budget in terms of sales ‘events’ versus a time-dictated spend.
Target Market
•Consumers with an existing relationship with The Hess Collection.
EXECUTION Teaser Campaign
•One initial concern was that our teaser campaigns would cannibalize sales leading into Cyber Monday. To counteract this, we strategically rolled out the communications to both limit the downside. It resulted in the best sales month in the winery’s history. EVER.
Instituted (Near) Cradle To Grave Digital Advertising Attribution Tracking
•This allowed us to see what was delivering sales in real time and make micro-optimizations that helped generate record-breaking ecommerce wine sales.
•As sales trended upward late in the evening, we shut down performing ads and redirected budget to higher performing ads based on the sales conversions.
EXECUTION
Integrated digital channel feedback loop.
•Each communication touchpoint supported and reinforced the other.
•While Facebook assisted in 27% of Cyber Monday revenue, the overall digital advertising effort was greater than the sum of its parts.
