So Avant Garde faced the challenge of being able to maintain its customers once they acquired them. This is especially true since Avant Garde sells a product, perfumes, which are available to purchase at brick and mortar locations such as department stores, boutiques, and other online marketplaces. With this challenge in mind, giving customers a good reason to stay purchasing on the So Avant Garde website, made loyalty an obvious choice to keep customers on the site.
Additionally, in an environment where consumer spending on discretionary goods is becoming tighter, Avant Garde also faced the challenge of growing average revenue per customer, average order volume (AOV), and average number of purchases per customer on the site.
So Avant Garde had not implemented a loyalty program in the past, so Bubblehouse was able to come in and craft a bespoke solution given Avant Garde’s business dynamics and customer preferences.

Bubblehouse and So Avant Garde together crafted a loyalty and referrals solution that boosted average revenue per customer, AOV, and purchase frequency by 40% on each metric compared to those that did not participate in the loyalty program.
Through a sophisticated program that combined earning points towards future purchase credit, a tiered system that allowed for additional benefits for VIPs, and referrals, So Avant Garde is now much closer to maximizing repeat customer revenue potential than they were before.

Redeemers had a 3.95x higher average revenue per customer, where for redeems it was 944 USD and for non redeemers it was 239 USD.
