For your legs win back Over 1200 customers
Scribeless' handwritten mail drives $109,000 in revenue with a 4.36x ROI.
Challenge
For Your Legs wanted to re-engage their hardest to reach customers, who weren’t replying to their email and SMS winback campaigns.
Solution
Using handwritten mail, For Your Legs were able to target and reach this cohort, and unlocked a new, impactful, marketing channel.
Campaign details
Company background
ForYourLegs is a division of Aleva Stores, which originated from American Medical Services founded in 1957. Their customer demographic is diverse, consisting of seniors, athletes, pregnant women, and service industry workers. This makes it difficult to isolate specific growth channels, so the team turned to handwritten direct mail.
Shopify expertise
Scribeless imported an exact demographic match for customers that had purchased from 6 - 12 months prior through the Shopify app, then handled reporting so the team could compare results against traditional direct mail.
Handwritten engagement rates
Traditional direct mail doesn’t enable brands to build personal connections with customers. The incremental lift in revenue using handwritten outperformed expectations.
Analysis and summary
Traditional direct mail doesn’t enable brands to build personal connections with customers. When delivered, it doesn’t stand out, and ends up in the trash. When For Your Legs came to Scribeless, the biggest reason for doing so was trying to find a better way. The incremental lift in revenue using handwritten outperformed expectations.
The numbers were very good! We are planning to continue using Scribeless for this initial campaign, and will be looking to do many campaigns in the near future.
