Objective

Help us improve sales through activation campaigns, including those linked to Grolsch’s sponsorship of music festivals such as Sensation White, Mysteryland, North Sea Jazz, and Lowlands.

Execution

Digital transformation

  • Brand activation: Developed and managed a wide range of omni-channel brand activation campaigns. This included creative concept development, production of all assets, campaign implementation, monitoring of campaign results, and adjusting the campaigns if necessary.

Business transformation

  • CRM and loyalty program pilot: Developed, implemented, and managed Grolsch Music, a CRM and loyalty platform centered around Grolsch-sponsored music festivals. Consumers could earn points based on purchased products, with chances to win meet-and-greets with artists or VIP packages. The platform also featured an online merchandise shop where points could be redeemed for Grolsch-branded goodies.

Results

  • Increased market share in a declining beer market.
  • High levels of engagement from Grolsch drinkers with the campaigns.
  • Over 300,000 registered Grolsch customers in the first year of the CRM and loyalty program pilot.
  • Gained deep insights into socio-demographic characteristics, music and taste preferences, and levels of brand engagement.
