The Challenge

Morphy Richards

Following a shift towards D2C growth, Morphy Richards identified email as a key channel, but performance was underdelivering across both revenue and engagement metrics.

Campaigns lacked personalisation and strategic direction, with a reliance on broad, one-size-fits-all messaging. There was also limited insight into customer timing and relevance, alongside gaps in reporting transparency and platform expertise.

Key areas for improvement included messaging relevance, lifecycle strategy, revenue growth and overall channel performance.

The Approach

Morphy Richards

I-COM applied its e-commerce email marketing framework to deliver a structured improvement plan across campaigns and automation.

Six core areas were prioritised to drive performance:

  • Refresh of email templates and copy, aligning with brand identity and introducing lifestyle imagery.
  • Enhancement of existing automations, including abandoned browse journeys.
  • Introduction of new lifecycle automations and integrations.
  • Rebuild of segmentation using predictive customer metrics.
  • Development of a structured testing strategy.
  • Campaign planning aligned to lifecycle stages and promotional opportunities.

This approach created a more targeted and responsive email programme, improving both engagement and efficiency.

The Results

Changes to planning, segmentation and creative delivery improved both performance and efficiency across the channel.

Revenue increased year-on-year despite a reduction in campaign volume, supported by more relevant messaging and improved lifecycle targeting.

The revised approach also enabled a balance between revenue-driving campaigns and loyalty-building communications.
