The Project

A digital and data-driven customer engagement program, taken to market via a simple customer promise and brand campaign.

The Outcome

IKEA Family, a loyalty program that promised perks and discounts along with a multi-channel engagement strategy and an integrated system powering advanced personalisation.

Transforming the trip

IKEA needed to find new ways to retain & connect with customers. However, when we met IKEA they didn't know much about their customers or how they shopped.

Ambitious goals

To compete in tough economic times, IKEA also needed innovative ways to acquire a massive member base fast, while reducing marketing cost.

Three-pronged loyalty

We worked with IKEA to build three kinds of program benefits that would be relevant and valuable to the Australian market, including inspiring ideas for home refreshment, reinventing the shop for less stress, and saving members money.

Family friend, Loyalty4

IKEA family's advanced customer recognition & reward features run on the capability of Loyalty4, our house-developed loyalty software. Each module of Loyalty4 enables data-driven features, insights and communication.

Profiling + automation

A snackable 30-second sign-up was created that encouraged customers to volunteer data about themselves, and feel they're entering a program that's all about them. Technology automated the delivery of highly personalised communication.

86% of joiners told us all about themselves in this 30-second form.

Right time, right sibling

The system took volunteered data that customers provided on sign up, along with dynamic transactional and behavioural data, to enable offers that knew family members like blood.

CX Lavender acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
