BUILT/ was a modern-day builders merchant, unlike any other. Designed from the ground up, we partnered with their leadership team to redefine the trade retail experience. Our role was to grow the BUILT/ brand. No matter whether BUILT/’s audience interacts with them online, in the branch, or on the go, the experience was the same. The branch format promoted rapid walk-in purchases. It boasted a unique take on the click-and-collect experience. It did this to reduce time in-branch and the need for customer parking. Meaning more products in a smaller space. Everything about BUILT/ was super-efficient. This was reflected in the daily activities of employees and how they serve customers. We crafted BUILT/’s user experience by understanding their audiences’ journeys. Working with their internal teams meant we realised industry-leading experiences at speed. An iterative process meant the user experience and customer journeys progressed over time, optimising purchase paths and improving conversion rates. To make customers arrive, you need a solid plan and precise execution. We helped BUILT/ with their local supremacy by creating monthly campaigns that raised brand awareness, supported by email automation for every occasion, and designing a 600-page catalogue to sit on every dashboard in record time. Personalised, consistent, and engaging marketing content across the physical and digital that was time and location-sensitive.
