The Summary.
Like many retailers, Southern Baked Pies was needing to make big changes to their marketing priorities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that was keeping people out of stores and sending them online. Leveraging the Springbot platform and working with their Account Manager, the SBP team reworked their marketing strategy and achieved incredible results. With the rapid spread of COVID-19 changing how consumers were shopping, Southern Baked Pie needed to rethink how they would market to shoppers and see success in the new normal of retail shopping.

The Solution.
Working with their Account Manager, Southern Baked Pie increased their digital marketing across the board – more online ads, more emails and segmentation, and more automations.
The Results.
With every optimization, Southern Baked Pie saw increased success. Online ads would drive new traffic and retarget site visitors. Through constant segmentation, the team was able to stay personal with their subscribers resulting in more purchases. Leveraging automations, the team was able to take a little off their plate while still driving more revenue through email. Pair these marketing actions with Southern Baked Pie’s amazing line of products, and shoppers were clearly enthusiastic that they could still receive the brand’s delicious baked goods during a time when folks were hesitant to leave their homes.
