Challenge
We regularly enhance the retention website we developed for Sky, PreviewLIVE, with new tools exclusive to Sky customers. We found that Pub landlords needed a quick and easy to use facility to create personalised posters, leaflets and POS material to promote the sports fixtures they show in their venues.

Response
We created My POS, allowing customers to use a very simple step-by-step process to create their own POS material to download and print cheaply themselves; they also have the option to have their creations professionally printed. My POS gives users a huge range of sports fixtures and suitable images to choose from to apply to their choice of template. They can then add their own promotional text and special offers to really help them promote their premises.

Result
In the first month we saw the 5,900 user base download 2,000+ items for self-printing and 50+ items purchased through the site and sent for professional printing. The reporting shows that there is a steady 500+ items created and downloaded weekly.

Customer comments
“Feel now I am getting value for money. Keep the good ideas coming.”
“Excellent! A brilliant and professional tool”
“Awesome product!!!!”

Always nice to hear kind words from a client also:
“PreviewLIVE is an essential part of our customer retention strategy, Works Digital drove the design, build and functionality of MyPOS in direct response to one of our main customer challenges and were meticulous in striving for the perfect solution.

The end result was a technologically advanced cross platform solution that was so simple for the end user, yet gave us the flexibility as the client to control via a CMS. This is now one of our most valued retention tools, and also a great benefit to Sky commercial subscribers.”

Due to the ever-increasing levels of information that they were sharing with their partners – marketing tools, product announcements, user guides, data sheets and training collateral – i2 had a challenge in making their Partner Portal an easy to use tool for their valued partners. Works Digital were tasked with the job of re-designing and re–building the secure website to improve usage and partner interaction. i2 also wanted to bring a bit more colour to the site to enhance the user experience whilst still keep in line with their corporate branding.

Through the analysis of web stats, Works Digital were able to identify the bottlenecks and pinch points along the customer journey. Works Digital developed a modern and fresh interface with a real focus on easily accessing information quickly. Works Digital created a ‘clutter free’ website which allowed users to download their information within just 2-3 clicks.

Always nice to hear kind words from a client also:

“Works Digital has delivered this project effectively under a restricted budget and with changes to the time frame throughout. The Works Digital team was extremely supportive and I am delighted with the end result.”

IBM held an event targeted at IBM Business Partners who deliver software solutions and asked Works Digital to generate all comms and registrations to the event. They wanted a minimum of 250 registrants to the event Business Partners are generally tech savvy, quite busy and spend a high proportion of their time travelling so communicating to them ‘on-the-go’ was a big consideration.

We developed an email template for IBM to send out to generate traffic to a registration microsite that was also optimised for mobile to tailor it for the partners who are rarely in the office. We know that the target audience use many methods of communication to stay in touch with colleagues and prospects so we included Social Media on all comms and used Twitter and LinkedIn to help drive attendance.

We designed everything right down to an email signature for IBM and an agenda booklet for registrants. The campaign exceeded everyone’s expectations with 344 registrants.

The new site will include the latest version of the Works Digital Content Management System as its core.
