EXAMPLES OF OUR WORK
IMC Case Study: Launching Crystal Serenity
Challenge: Already the leader in the luxury cruise category, Crystal Cruises wanted to increase sales to new segments of guests, while lowering costs per new guest acquisition.
With the launch of their third ship, Crystal Serenity, Crystal Cruises had a 58% capacity increase in an industry experiencing reduced demand, capacity utilization and margins.
Solution: An Integrated Marketing Communications campaign selling Crystal Serenity itineraries. To track leads, inbound calls were routed via a sophisticated, proprietary toll-free system to the line’s top travel agent partners, who paid 25% of the media. A new eCommerce ready Website was launched with direct, back office connections to longtime Crystal Cruises Travel Agencies.
Results: Generating over 7,000 high quality leads, the campaign’s cost per call was at a record low – in fact, there was a positive CPA (Contribution Per name Acquired) of over $200!
The campaign was both effective and profitable.
