The solution
Alan Wadkins adopted Salesfire’s data capture technology to increase its newsletter subscribers without detracting from the seamless user experience on the site. With this new approach, Salesfire strategically engaged users with a visually appealing campaign and expanded on ways to interact with customers by gathering both emails and phone numbers. This increased the number of subscribers the company collected by 8.9x, as demonstrated in the graph.
Capturing more email addresses from traffic driven through ad spend allowed Alan Wadkins to expand the success of its work with Mabo and grow its retargeting list for future campaigns. By proactively capturing its own customer data and adapting to changing landscapes, the company is well-positioned to maintain marketing effectiveness and drive continued growth.
“Being able to utilise the Salesfire system more effectively has seen our owned first-party data skyrocket. We now have a much larger audience to market to and can share this collected data with our agency, Mabo, to strengthen the effectiveness of our Paid Marketing activity.”
