I was approached by Sony in 2008 to develop the CRM & Loyalty strategy for their direct channel retail store in Europe – Sony Style Stores and Sony Style online. It was my task alone to build this area and prove to the rest of the business that by building a relationship with the consumer through the direct channel, Sony can start to drive improved customer satisfaction, a retained customer based and loyalty. My budget was €1million to scope, build, deliver and implement a CRM/loyalty programme scalable across the direct retail store in Europe. In addition to the programme side was the development, planning, creation and implementation of the entire customer proposition including data analytics requirements, customer marketing through trigger emails, segmented emails and DM and in-life customer journey comms. All of this was only actionable through the complete Customer Experience Management co-ordination and systems interfacing. This was managed through all customer touchpoints – store, email, web, call centre, repair centres and third party services. The project has been a success with the programme delivered, implemented and live on time. The customer marketing is now centrally co-ordinated and we have a single voice to the customer with a single customer view to the business through all touchpoints.
