Denver-Based Lingerie Retailer SOL Teams With dotmailer to Build Customer Engagement and Loyalty

LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - April 11, 2016) - dotmailer, a leading email and cross-channel marketing automation platform, has been selected by Denver-based merchant SOL (Store of Lingerie) to support its emerging ecommerce business and customer engagement strategy. dotmailer will further SOL's mission to bring the same superior customer service found in its physical, brick-and-mortar retail location to customers online. 

SOL https://www.solgirl.com/ was founded by two sisters, Jeanie Peterson and Cindy Johnson, who have been running the business for 19 years. Their team of employees are trained, personalized "fitters" who focus on selling confidence, comfort and fun.

"Building relationships with our customers has been the cornerstone of SOL. But in order to grow, we need our technology to support and enhance this same mission. For example, recognizing a customer's birthday or first anniversary of a purchase from SOL is really important," said Jeanie Peterson, founder and business development manager, SOL. "dotmailer's email marketing automation platform makes it simple and cost-effective to reach out to our customers in a regular, meaningful and personalized manner. We can also measure these interactions to help build retention and loyalty."

Using dotmailer, SOL now has the ability to:

• Enhance the productivity of its limited, dedicated marketing team of only two. Marketing automation provides a way to reach hundreds of SOL's customers thereby freeing store owners to focus on growing the business in other ways;
• Move beyond list building to sending automated campaigns. Now SOL can use the learnings from customer engagements with the communications to further nurture them -- e.g. recognize birthdays/anniversaries;
• Increase customer acquisition and sales profitability to the website.

"SOL has carved out a great customer niche and it's clear why those customers keep coming back: top-notch service. Cultivating these relationships is key to building their brand," said Tink Taylor, dotmailer's Founder & President. "We are excited to be part of SOL's digital customer journey."
