Sears & Ward profile customers from catalogue orders — and sell entire kit houses by post.
A six-month plan to turn declared home-design intent into loyalty, cross-sell and measured lift — for HomeStyle Global.
Sears & Ward profile customers from catalogue orders — and sell entire kit houses by post.
A plastic card links a name to a basket. The first true customer file is born.
"Customers who bought…" — collaborative filtering scales taste for the first time.
Real-time, 1-to-1, predictive — grounded in live inventory. The village shopkeeper, industrialised.
Most brands infer intent from clicks. Our customers declare it — every saved room, configured wardrobe, booked consult. Almost no one feeds that into the engine. We will.
“You planned a kitchen — the worktop's missing.”
“Your saved living room is back in stock near you.”
“Complete the room you began last week.”

A scroll-scrubbed sequence — each step is one nudge in the customer journey.
Meet the moment before a competitor does.
A change-of-address signal triggers a room-by-room plan — starter kitchen, essentials, delivery windowed to move day.

Sequenced from pregnancy → first year: cots, blackout blinds, safe storage, then toddler-proof living.

Downsizers hear from us about extending sofas, wall beds, storage that doubles as seating.
Three segments. One in focus for the first 90 days — the sharpest wedge, the clearest trigger.
High intent, empty rooms, richest cross-sell. Value inside 90 days.
Predictable renewal windows. Whole-room upgrades and premium finishes.
Already opted-in. Reward with early access, style edits, design-service credit.
Why one focus segment first? The brief asks for a six-month plan with measurable lift — not a boil-the-ocean rollout. New Homeowners are the sharpest wedge: prove three concepts here, then extend to Renovation Returners and Loyalty Enthusiasts.

Dynamic dashboard cards reveal the pieces missing from a saved room — grouted, priced, in-stock nearby.

Two weeks after delivery, one beautifully-timed message — extended warranty, care kit, matching accessories recommended in-app.

Editorial email with design inspiration for the next declared room — plus a paid design-service upgrade, pre-populated with existing purchases + style.
Every declared action becomes a burst of signals — arriving at the unified profile in milliseconds.

Three deliverables per phase. Targets grounded in cited benchmarks.
The four things that can slow this roadmap, and how each is mitigated inside the six months.
CDP identity resolution and PIM room/care metadata must be trustworthy at Phase 1 kick-off.
Multi-market consent varies; wrong defaults kill the audience before it activates.
Three concepts × variant matrix will strain the content pipeline by Phase 2.
Cross-channel lift is hard to prove; stakeholders will challenge headline numbers.
Every experience runs against a 10% global control. What we count is incremental, not headline. One north-star, two guardrails, two ledgers.
