Gamification Marketing in the Furniture Industry

Gamification marketing allows you to collect data about your customers’ favourites and general product preferences in an entertaining way. Give your audience different choices in your game and analyse which ones are more attractive and less attractive.

Create an interplay between a physical in-store element and a digital presence, giving customers a varied experience with your brand.

Through user-friendly and fun game campaigns, you can create a memorable experience and generate greater interaction with both new and potential customers.

How others are doing it

BOBO is an online furniture store with a wide range of different brands. They use gamification to create considerable visibility and engagement among their target audience. One example of this was a campaign where the objective was to acquire a substantial amount of new leads for their newsletter list, in order to nurture the leads to move down their funnel from “awareness” to “action”.

A high conversion game initiative in the form of the Wheel of Fortune was used for this campaign to generate leads. BOBO created impressive traction! They made sure that the game was visible on the front page of their website and supported by pop-ups and page banners. Their Facebook and Instagram channels were also used to promote the gamification campaign.

The results from this campaign were extremely positive for BOBO. They gained increased visibility as well as a great number of leads at an all-time low price per lead.

Gamification Marketing in the Travel Industry

It has never been as easy or inexpensive to travel as it is today, with a dream destination just a few clicks away. This provides really exciting opportunities to reach out to both new and existing customers and stay top of mind when they’re ready to book their next trip.

Gamification marketing has become a part of everyday life for most travellers, whether they’re aware of it or not. The reward card at a favourite coffee chain? Part of a gamified loyalty program. Those fun map posters that let you scratch off each country you’ve traveled to? Also gamification.

Whether it’s the competitive desire to tick off one more destination or earn extra points to level up in a loyalty program, travelers already experience gamification in all kinds of ways – that means it can be powerful when applied to other areas, like research and purchase, or even in-flight.

How they did it

Apollo Rejser chose to make a competition using a Wheel of Fortune, where the main prize was a trip to Dubai including a stay at the luxurious Atlantis, The Palm. In addition, they added several smaller prizes in the form of gift cards and subscriptions to various entertainment services.

The purpose of the campaign was to activate consumers during their holidays and acquire new permissions to the newsletter.

The Wheel of Fortune was a great way to get closer to Apollo Rejser’s target audience and interact with it. The participants who won smaller prizes had the opportunity to redeem their prizes instantly. All in all, the campaign was a great success and the goals of the campaign were met.

Gamification Marketing in the Car Industry

Gamification marketing has been widely used within the retail and hospitality industries, but what about market sectors with more high-priced and considerable purchase items—like the car industry? Does gamification marketing bring exceptional results here as well?

The automotive industry is increasingly using gamification marketing in order to improve not only their customer experience, but also loyalty.

The majority of car manufacturers already recognise the importance of using interactive content marketing in order to drive growth and improve customer experience. At the same time, we live in a world where most consumers expect and demand digital platforms.

In order to communicate more efficiently with potential customers, we must acknowledge that the digital space is exactly where car buyers make their decisions about brands, prices, and opportunities. This is where gamification can play a role!

Gamification can solve your challenges

Here are a few examples:
• Permission collection for service inspection (with link to booking)
• To gain knowledge about customers’ preferences, and thus market the “right” offers for models and options
• Obtain knowledge and data about changing summer and winter tires, respectively
• Create test runs at dealers

These marketing activities can be fully automated and integrated into various gamification campaigns. Thus, over time, an effective lead nurturing flow will be built and help ensure an influx of new business for both car manufacturers and dealers. At the same time, you build trust with your end customers, who feel assisted with reminders about maintenance for their car.

What's Next?

If done right, gamification will capture users’ attention and increase their commitment to a purchase transaction.

Gamification Marketing in the Fashion Industry

With the digitalisation of the fashion industry, the importance of social media campaigns, influencer marketing, digital clothing experiments, and many other new tactics come into play. The tech transformation of the fashion industry has reinforced the desire to escalate brand reach and increase revenues. It’s an industry that has been in the digital world for a long time, but what we’ve seen in recent months takes it a step further as it enters into gamification territory.

Gamification marketing describes the use of gaming mechanics in a non-gaming context. It’s designed to create interest and provide opportunities to acquire new leads and collect data.

In a challenging industry like fashion, gamification can provide that extra detail which can be crucial to lead customers to make a purchase with your brand. It’s incredibly easy to integrate with your website, social media, and other communication channels. Moreover, it allows you to achieve a greater reach in a cost-effective way.

What challenges can gamification help with?

  • Increase brand awareness
  • Boost the acquisition of permissions
  • Strengthen customer loyalty
  • Identify new leads
  • Assist with the collection of relevant data
  • Create a unique customer journey

How others are doing it

Message, a multi-brand store with a wide selection of Danish and international fashion, applied gamification to their marketing efforts with impeccable style.

The brand had a desire to activate its customers and find a cost-effective tool that could create results. With Scratcher, they implemented a Wheel of Fortune on their website with the goal to acquire permissions and, ultimately, increase their revenue. The main prize for the campaign was a gift card for 10,000 DKK. In addition, there were other prizes of discount codes and chances to win specific products, among others.

Customers responded very well to this initiative and the campaign exceeded all expectations. Here are the results:

Message’s achievements prove that, by presenting products or services in an interactive way, you can create a memorable experience and receive greater interaction from both new and potential customers—while also staying ahead of your competition.

Make a plan!

Gamification provides countless opportunities to make shopping more exciting for your customers. Whether it’s in-store or online, you have the freedom to create a unique gamified experience with just a little imagination.

There are many possibilities, but it’s important to remember that gamification works best when you have a subsequent plan with the collected leads.

Whether it’s a simple quiz, competition, poll, or interactive game, gamification is the way forward, especially for the fashion industry.

What's Next?

When done right, gamification captures users’ attention and increases their commitment to a purchase transaction.

Are you looking for a new way to engage with your customers, or want to find ways to keep them coming back? Gamification marketing may be the answer.
