Automated email workflows enriched with data from its eCommerce platform mobilized customers to purchase.
Dynamic coupons encouraged first-time purchases to buy again by incorporating discounts into welcome messages.

The Brief

GP Bikes sought to improve its email marketing program by migrating to a more powerful eCommerce-focused ESP platform, growing its subscriber list, and delivering personalized experiences to its audience. As a Klaviyo Gold Master Partner, Northern successfully developed and implemented a powerful email marketing strategy that drove impressive results and paved the road for GP Bikes to advance its growth for years to come.

The Client

The journey began for GP Bikes 21 years ago with five used motorcycles, one employee, and a dream. GP Bikes has seen tremendous growth over time, but its commitment to excellent service has remained unwavering. Now with over 40,000 square feet in-store dedicated to motorsports and 50 team members, the dream is revved and thriving. Its vision expanded to include dirt bikes, motocross, ATVs and UTVs, snowmobiles, watersports, and OEM parts.

The Challenge

GP Bikes needed to provide a superior online consumer experience by optimizing its digital marketing mix for peak performance with its rapid growth. The top priority was to scale their email program to an enterprise level to align with the company’s progression.

The retailer uncovered the need to upgrade their email service provider to more fully leverage email marketing and nurture subscribers through their purchase journey. To increase its sales and boost its revenue, GP Bikes looked to enrich its email program by providing personalized experiences and mobilizing its user data to extend its commitment to excellent customer service in the eCommerce ecosystem.

A successful marketing program engages and nurtures subscribers by offering unique and personalized solutions to fulfill customers’ needs. To reach GP Bike’s email marketing goals, Klaviyo’s robust segmentation capabilities and seamless automation features made it Northern’s top choice for the client.
