There are few target markets that attract the attention of those with goods and services to promote than the category of New Movers. The traditional tenet is that these folks are on the move…and ready to buy.
According to a recent respected study, more than half of all brands that have had the foresight to implement a Mover Marketing Program report a success with the concept, logging a rating in excess of eight—on a scale of ten—as it applies to impact.
Perhaps most significantly, nearly 60% of those marketers surveyed rate such programs as being “extremely” successful in helping them to attain their individual goals. Additionally, more than 40% of firms focusing on Moved Marketing recorded marked increases in the acquisition of new customers; non-users notched a paltry 8% increase.
But here’s the advantage: fewer than 50% of business-to-consumer brands that have instituted customer retention/acquisition programs have strategies in the attractive category of Mover Marketing. When it comes to the lucrative bottom line, the greatest potential for payoff lies in the areas of customer experience, retention, and acquisition—categories ripe to deliver results for those savvy marketers who take the time to learn how to read them…and to implement them to the best advantage of their company’s unique place in the marketplace.
It’s worth noting in this study that nearly a third of these best-in-class users assign more than a fifth of marketing budgets to the category of Movers, nearly 75% more than those who choose not to mine this important group.
Preferred Methods.
As far as channels for reaching Movers go, Email, Personalized
Offers, Rewards/Loyalty Programs and Direct Mail are in a virtual tie for
first, all hovering around 42%; print advertising and segmentation follow, not
far behind. It should surprise no one who follows these trends that Social
Media plays a noteworthy part in this mix, as well.
The market categories in most demand for attracting new Movers are automotive, personal services, travel/hospitality, and professional services.
