EXEC & bPerx case study

A surprise perk, a 45.45% click-through rate.

EXEC emailed its VIP members in the US and Canada a free magazine subscription of their choice. Engagement rose 10%+ across all metrics, and click-throughs far surpassed its 1.6% average.

Case study details

Goal objectives

Benefits program, "EXEC", sent out dedicated bPerx emails to their VIP members (American and Canadian respectively) as a surprise loyalty perk.

Our methods

  • Offer: A magazine subscription of the member's choice, with no credit card required and no hidden strings
  • Email send I: Simple text with a unique offering went a long way for their customers by eliminating fluff and providing a gift with measurable value.
  • Email send II: EXEC opted to send another email in light of high take-rates. Our in-house design team provided basic imagery to accompany the offer for their second email send.

The results

Email campaign performance metrics

  • EXEC saw a significant boost in engagement, with increases of 10%+ across all metrics simply by including bPerx in their email calendar.
  • Across both audiences, bPerx not only generated incremental revenue per take, but also helped to boost email engagement across multiple metrics. Most notably, the click-through rates, far surpassing their typical average of 1.6%.
  • VIP member send: 40.10% open rate, 18.23% click rate, 45.45% click-through rate
  • Canada send: 43.09% open rate, 12.77% click rate, 29.63% click-through rate
  • With our robust catalog, their users continued to claim new subscriptions.

Next steps

EXEC is moving forward with a regular email cadence due to sustained campaign success, and limitless opportunities to reposition bPerx; either as a standalone offer, or as a hook to encourage an action.
