How we did it
The COVID-19 pandemic threw the entire world into disarray. Many brands were not geared with what was needed to handle this unprecedented situation through digital retail. However, we took on the challenge for Crocodile and delivered a solution that supercharged their sales conversions and launched their brand to new heights.
Aiming to provide a comprehensive digital experience for the consumer, a fully-fledged end-to-end digital store was created for Crocodile which was operating as a brick-and-mortar store up until that point. This was then followed by a 360-degree digital marketing campaign which was focused on addressing the unique challenges consumers faced during the lockdown.
Key Insight
We identified the real need
of the consumer during the lockdown
During the nationwide COVID-19 lockdown, people were forced to work from home, which was unusual in a country like Sri Lanka. Most people’s wardrobes, therefore, were filled with formal clothing which wasn’t suitable for a working from home situation.
As casual clothing was quite limited in wardrobes, this insight was used to create content that would promote types of Crocodile clothing which were more suitable for a working from home situation.
A full-funnel targeted marketing campaign was launched to promote the benefits of using Crocodile’s comfort wear to 3 key market segments identified through research.
3 Key Segments
1. Working From Home
As it was the summertime in Sri Lanka, a segment of males aged between 18-47 was identified as a suitable target group to whom comfort wear such as Flip Flops and Polos which were ideal for a working from home situation was marketed.
2. Workout From Home
Working out was essential for health -conscious individuals during the lockdown. A target segment of males aged between 20-34 who had interests in gym memes, Health and Wellness, Men’s Fitness and etc, was identified to whom Joggers, Crewnecks and Athleisure wear were marketed.
3. Gifting
The lockdown happened during a festive season in Sri Lanka and people had no idea how to send gifts for their loved ones during this period. This insight was used to promote virtual gift cards to audiences who were interested in content related to these festivities.
Key geographical areas were identified with high amounts of residents who belong to the
working population; the same working population who were forced to work from home from these areas.
This targeted demographic was then further narrowed down to be identified as engaged shoppers.
A special campaign was also executed
specifically targeting people who were looking at options for sending gifts during the lockdown.
A full-funnel campaign was executed, covering all three stages of the customer journey –
Awareness
Consideration
Conversion
strategies were created to keep the customer engaged at each stage, through Paid Media Advertising Campaigns, Social Media Marketing, Offer Schemes, Email Automation and SMS Marketing Campaigns.
An SEO Campaign too was launched concurrently which was utilizing white hat SEO
practices which aided in achieving and surpassing organic performance KPIs.
