Customer engagement company Airship today detailed the amazing success three brand marketers have achieved using Airship Journeys to more quickly and easily improve the business impact of cross-channel customer journeys. The customer journeys these marketers have optimized have driven double- and even triple-digit percentage performance improvements over baselines established by control groups.

Airship Journeys combines everything marketers need to create, evaluate, test and optimize cross-channel customer engagement journeys in a single, intuitive visual UI. Only Airship Journeys allows marketers to zoom in from glanceable, color-coded visualizations of journey performance against business goals and baselines, to view and optimize any underlying message with A/B testing.

As the largest professional social network and digital distribution platform for musicians and other creative types, Vampr has created numerous journeys since selecting Airship in August 2020. A recently launched reactivation journey targets app users who have been inactive for five days with a series of three push notifications and a final email within two weeks, and has been found to reactivate users at a 277 percent higher rate than those in the control group.

“My goal is to drive critical business KPIs by getting users to complete their profiles, connect with nearby creatives, add their original songs and videos, and much more — 90 percent of the time I’m using Airship Journeys to optimize these user experiences,” said Jessy Trengove, head of insights, Vampr. “By being able to easily see journey performance against baseline metrics and control groups, I’m more easily able to achieve the goals that make a real difference to the business.”

On Black Friday, J. C. Penney Company, Inc. used Airship Journeys to transform a one-message cart abandonment automation into a two-message journey and found significant lift in completed purchases. This cart abandonment journey now shows an all-time increase of 40 percent higher purchase completion rates over the control group baseline. JCP reactivation messages spread across three separate automations are now being combined into a single journey, enabling a goal-based view of business impact rather than trying to draw conclusions by comparing each message’s engagement metrics.

“With Airship Journeys, we can see where each customer comes into and progresses through each phase and can more easily A/B test any message in the journey to optimize timing, triggers, copy and content,” said Haley Welmon, owned media specialist, JCPenney. “Airship Journeys control groups and baselines help us make decisions and increase revenue more quickly, so we can maximize our success and ensure that what we think is the best experience for the customer, actually is.”

Airship Journeys enables an at-a-glance understanding of how cross-channel journeys are performing against business goals, trending performance lifts against control group baselines to direct optimization efforts and maximize business value. 

In hospitality, in their mobile app, Radisson Hotel Group has created a cart abandonment journey series spanning three messages over four days — the first of which guarantees the room’s rate — driving an 11 percent lift in completed reservations over the control group.

“It’s so gratifying to see how quickly brands have realized substantial business gains due to the powerful way we’ve reinvented cross-channel journeys for the mobile era,” said Brett Caine, CEO and president, Airship. “Engaging customers with in-the-moment relevancy across digital channels has never been more important, and small improvements can drive big results. Airship Journeys brings breakthrough simplicity to the entire process and speeds insights-to-optimization to accelerate revenue growth.”

Recently, Airship was named a Leader in “The Forrester Wave™: Mobile Engagement Automation, Q3 2020,” receiving the highest score in the Strategy category (tied) and the second highest score in the Current Offering category.
