The challenge

Viajes El Corte Inglés decided to establish an internal Customer Service, Marketing, and Sales department to improve the management of its marketing, optimize acquisition costs and provide a better experience to its customers through multiple contact channels.

Previously, this service was outsourced, which prevented it from developing its marketing and sales strategy in an agile and independent way, with the immediacy and real-time control demanded by the digital market. The company needed a technology partner that would help to centralize and internalize its marketing, sales and customer service processes.

Solution

Omnichannel

As a first step, the Viajes El Corte Inglés sales team incorporated inConcert Omnichannel Contact Center platform to achieve a true omnichannel management of contacts for sales and customer service.

Marketing Platform

Then we worked on the adoption of inConcert Marketing. Our engineering team developed a detailed and solid "onboarding", not only to teach them how to use the new technology but also to internalize all marketing processes, taking full advantage of the functionalities of the tool. This involved a detailed understanding of the business structure and marketing strategy of Viajes El Corte Inglés, respecting and enhancing it.

To implement the campaigns, a work of organization of the Viajes El Corte Inglés areas in the suite was carried out. In this way, it was possible to correctly attribute the origin of each lead and make a personalized follow-up, from end to end, even in the most complex campaigns with a large volume of leads.

Landing page builder

Viajes El Corte Inglés design team began using the inConcert Marketing design module. Thus, they managed to internalize the development of landing pages, streamline their publication, and make the necessary adjustments in real time.

Marketing Platform

In addition, we worked on the integration between digital marketing campaigns and the omnichannel contact center. Automation processes were implemented both for the distribution of digital leads to the contact center and for the nurturing of prospects in longer cycles or in unclosed sales. Through the CRM built into the platform, the sales opportunities of some promotions were managed more efficiently.

Results

Thanks to the teamwork between the inConcert and Viajes El Corte Inglés professionals, the company successfully managed to internalize the demand generation successfully and quickly and integrated with the omnichannel service in the contact center.

This helped improve response times improve response times.

Viajes El Corte Inglés now has more than 50 active landing pages within inConcert Marketing Automation module.

But in addition, despite how challenging the pandemic was for the tourism industry, Viajes El Corte Inglés still managed to increase non-presential sales by 30% by applying technology.
