Optimising business performance through loyalty
Following in-depth analysis of the GALERIA customer programme figures, measures to increase programme activity were adopted as the main optimisation tool for increasing turnover and frequency per customer. The Smart Data Platform loyalty module was to be used to monetise members of the programme and to expand reach as a basis for direct marketing campaigns.

Dynamic and automated reporting in Power BI
The reporting product was designed to set up automated reporting in order to both replace existing manual reports in Excel or PPT and at the same time include strategically significant developments. We focused on orienting the varied report content, its structure and the possibilities of interacting with it, to the various application areas of diverse stakeholders.

Scoring engine for optimised campaign management
With a multi-million customer base, deciding on what will appeal to different target audiences is no trivial matter for direct marketing teams. The effectiveness of advertising hinges on it being relevant to the recipient. Our challenge was to design a system that predicts which campaign and contact channels will achieve the greatest possible effect on the individual customers.
