Objective

Help us—Goededoelen Loterijen, provider of the Nationale Postcode Loterij, Vriendenloterij, and BankGiro Loterij—develop digital participant acquisition and grow ticket sales.

Execution

Digital transformation

  • Marketing automation implementation: Based on functional requirements, my team and I implemented marketing automation software and set up automated campaigns.

Business transformation

  • Data-driven mindset: Developed a foundational mindset to work from data and the insights derived from it, allowing us to further optimize campaigns (CRO) and experiment with testing (A/B testing).
  • Testing as a standard process: Continuous A/B testing became a core part of the operational process, creating a ‘library’ of hypotheses, results, and best practices.
  • Working from a strategic framework: Initially starting from an operational level, we convinced Goededoelen Loterijen of the need for a strategic approach to the email channel. I then developed this framework as a foundation for all email activities.

Operational management

  • Managed email marketing services: For five years, my team and I managed the complete email marketing and marketing automation operations. This included concept development, design, production, implementation, data management, and channel management, supported by specific reports.
  • Inspiration sessions: Regular inspiration sessions for Goededoelen Loterijen employees to keep them updated on the latest trends in (interaction) design and technology.

Results

  • A fully data-driven and efficient email marketing and marketing automation operation.
  • A solid first step from a single-channel to an omni-channel approach in campaign development.
  • The email channel demonstrably contributed to 28% of new lottery ticket sales.
