Home Improvement Ecommerce Case Study - How Using the Right Tools Built Profitability

Executive Summary

A large home improvement retailer was searching for new tools to boost online revenue while minimizing margin erosion. Like traditional door crashers that drive foot traffic but attract bargain hunters, mass promotional events online were training consumers to wait and only buy at discounted prices.

Through a 3-month pilot with ES Engage personalized offers, the retailer discovered they could achieve profitable online sales without simply giving away deep discounts that ate into their margins.

The Challenge

Revenue vs. Margins Dilemma

Mass promotional events trained customers to wait for discounts
Deep discounts eroded profit margins
Bargain hunters dominated online traffic
$500M
Estimated abandoned cart opportunity

Half a billion dollars in missed revenue from cart abandonment alone
