It seems like there are a bunch of bookseller updates these days, doesn't it? Next up: Powell’s Books.
The legendary Portland, Ore.-based retailer is gearing up to reach customers this holiday season with a targeted e-mail marketing campaign that delivers book recommendations to customers based on their preferences.
The company, which operates four general bookstores, two specialty stores and an e-commerce site, has been its testing e-mail marketing strategy throughout the year and has since seen an increase in online sales. In fact, its open-rate results are more than 70%.
The move to personalize the content of its e-mails comes as Powell's is expanding the reach of its e-mails and online marketing efforts with social media. It's done a lot to engage customers online -- and its strategies are worth a closer look. To find out more on what the company is doing, click here to read the Chain Store Age exclusive.
