BUSINESS GOALS
- To increase customer attrition, loyalty & sales by 20%.
- New design must convert
better for mobile, while still maintaining current performance for desktop. - Present direct booking options from all the major car rental brands in a design that allows for an instant and easy reservation process.
PROBLEM DEFINITION
As mobile email opens consistently stay above 50%, it’s increasingly clear that email campaigns need to be designed with mobile subscribers in mind. AutoRentals.com emails were not using best practices.
The design code lack the use of fluid tables and images to make content flow across different screen sizes.
OLD EMAIL DESIGN
If you take a look below you can see the email does not adjust to screen size. This was causing the users to zoom in in order to read the content. Many users after this point were just closing the email and not engaging with it.
