How Oliver Bonas Uses Bloomreach Engagement to Make Their Campaigns Soar
Oliver Bonas is a British lifestyle retailer with over 80 brick-and-mortar stores across the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Intent on designing its own take on fashion and homeware, Oliver Bonas also offers an online shopping experience for customers across the globe.
The Challenge
Oliver Bonas was looking to obtain a “single customer view” (SCV). Essentially, it wanted an extensive database of customer profiles, complete with purchase history, site activity, and product recommendations.
To hit its targeted goals, Oliver Bonas needed a database that was scalable, flexible, and updatable in real time in order to create more personalized communications with customers and improve key metrics.
We have been incredibly impressed with the support received and speed at which we have seen significant results. We are very excited about the numerous projects we have in the pipeline to develop our functionalities and customer experience further.
