Challenge

ZGONC's ecommerce team sent one themed newsletter to all 65,000 subscribers, without a unified customer view or insight into customer interests. Its five-person team needed a platform it could run independently while competing online.

Solution

Solution

Insider One unified webshop behavior in CDP, built predictive and behavioral audiences, and orchestrated personalized cross-channel journeys in Architect. ZGONC began on its existing webshop while preparing its Shopify Plus relaunch.

SUCCESS STORY #1

A unified customer foundation drives 4X incremental revenue growth

The Challenge

Customer data was split across a standalone email tool and separate automation tools. ZGONC sent themed newsletters to its entire 65,000-subscriber list, despite managing around 15,000 products, 700 categories, and 600 brands.

The Solution

Insider One CDP created unified customer profiles from webshop behavior. ZGONC used Predictive Segments and behavioral audiences, then activated personalized email and web push journeys in Architect, supported by Web Templates and Smart Recommender.

“We could send a campaign. But we couldn't really see the person on the other end, and we couldn't reach them consistently across channels.”
Dominik Beneder
Digital Marketing & E-Commerce Manager

The Result

Between Q1 and Q2 2026, ZGONC increased incremental revenue 4x and grew its email subscriber base 18%, from 65,000 to 77K+. Its CVR uplift reached 15.9% in Q2, up from 10.8%, while the team continued using its existing channels.

SUCCESS STORY #2

Predictive audiences lift weekend deal engagement at 1% of list size

The Challenge

ZGONC's themed newsletters reached the whole list without identifying customers likely to purchase or respond to discounts. It also needed a way to retarget visitors who viewed its new Wochenendhammer weekend promotion.

The Solution

ZGONC combined lead form subscribers with Predictive Segments for high purchase likelihood and high discount affinity. The promotion email launches with the deal, while consented promotion-page visitors sync to Google Ads for retargeting.

“With these segmented, targeted newsletters, we see how well this can work.”
Dominik Beneder
Digital Marketing & E-Commerce Manager

The Result

Wochenendhammer emails achieved 60% to 80% open rates and up to 30% CTR. The predictive audience generated more net revenue than previous mass newsletters with only 1% of the segment size.

SUCCESS STORY #3

Shopify Plus replatforming carries data and journeys forward

The Challenge

ZGONC needed to build its customer data foundation while relaunching its webshop on Shopify Plus. Waiting would delay progress, while building on the old webshop risked a second implementation for its small team.

The Solution

ZGONC began building profiles, audiences, and journeys on its existing webshop. Through the native Shopify integration, it can switch the data source at cutover while CDP, Architect, Eureka, and Smart Recommender connect in the new environment.

“What surprised us was how little the migration disrupted things on the Insider One side. We didn't have to rebuild the data foundation. We simply switched it on.”
Dominik Beneder
Digital Marketing & E-Commerce Manager

The Result

ZGONC can carry its existing data foundation and journeys into its Shopify Plus environment without rebuilding them. The new website starts with customer knowledge collected since the end of 2025.
