And Sinch is the easiest-to-use platform to have those conversations.\u201d<\/p>\n<cite><strong>&#8211; Chris Haddad<br><\/strong>CRM and E-Commerce Manager at Oz Hair and Beauty<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Oz Hair and Beauty doesn\u2019t just sell premium products. It\u2019s a place where customers can get personalized recommendations for everything from the best dry hair shampoo to the right skincare routine for acne-prone skin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe want to have conversations with our customers about their hair and skin, so we can guide them to the right products,\u201d said Chris Haddad, CRM and E-Commerce Manager at Oz Hair and Beauty.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But as the retailer tripled in size over the last few years, maintaining customer relationships in store and online became a challenge. This time, Chris and his team needed some personalized recommendations of their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"How Oz Hair and Beauty achieved a 38x ROI with personalized SMS\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1056027749?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Testing a new way to connect with customers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris reached out to Sinch to learn about cost-effective ways to reach customers. Together, they landed on SMS marketing.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To test the idea, Chris sent a simple campaign with an offer from a major brand. The response was immediate and overwhelming. The warehouse saw a surge in orders, and customer service channels lit up with inquiries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s when we knew we needed to get more strategic with SMS. We\u2019d had our fun, sent out a blast, and got a great result, but we wanted to expand on that,\u201d Chris said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating personalized, conversational experiences with SMS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, Oz Hair and Beauty uses SMS to increase customer engagement and sales through:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Targeted promotional campaigns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For major sales events, like Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Chris segments contacts based on past purchases, interests, and behavior. For even higher engagement, he personalizes messages with custom fields like the customer\u2019s name, location, and product preferences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith Sinch\u2019s help, we\u2019ve figured out what works,\u201d Chris said. \u201cWe know we can smash out a 160-character SMS in a matter of minutes \u2013 and people will respond to it.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oz Hair and Beauty\u2019s targeted, conversational approach has led to impressive results. For instance, their 2022 Black Friday\/Cyber Monday campaign generated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>12% click-through rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>15% response rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>100% delivery rate&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, every promotional SMS campaign has achieved a click-through rate of 10.32% or higher.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBy using SMS as an engagement and conversational tool, we can add more value for our customers,\u201d Chris said. \u201cAnd Sinch is the easiest-to-use platform to have those conversations.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Abandoned cart messages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>They also integrated Sinch\u2019s SMS services with Shopify to trigger messages based on customer behavior. For instance, if a customer abandons items in their cart, they\u2019ll receive a text inviting them to complete their purchase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have seen a 13% conversion rate for that, which is amazing,\u201d said Annaliese Evans, Oz\u2019s CRM and Loyalty Specialist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even better, they\u2019ve generated up to 38x ROI on their abandoned cart messages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Two-way messaging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Customers can text product questions to Oz\u2019s SMS hotline and receive personalized recommendations from beauty experts.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beauty experts can provide advice while sharing relevant promotions to encourage sales.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe know what our customers want, and with Sinch, we can send them offers for the products they love using the channel we know they prefer,\u201d Chris said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unlocking omnichannel success<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Building on this success, Oz Hair and Beauty has implemented an omnichannel strategy that connects online and in-store experiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if a customer receives a promotional SMS for a product not stocked in their local store, staff can immediately facilitate an online order with direct shipping.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Integrated retail experiences like this, powered by Sinch\u2019s SMS capabilities, will help Oz Hair and Beauty stay connected with customers as they grow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":41152,"menu_order":0,"template":"single-updated-case-studies.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"popular":false,"coming_soon":false,"link":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-46956","case-studies","type-case-studies","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Oz Hair and Beauty - Sinch MessageMedia Australia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Learn how Australia&#039;s leading hair &amp; beauty retailer gained 38x ROI from SMS through personalized campaigns and two-way messaging.
