Event Triggered Marketing, Marketing at the Right Time



Finger on the TriggerIf you need customers, you need to figure out their trigger, that significant life changing event that precedes a major purchase where big money is spent.  Triggers typically fall into 2 subgroups: internal and external.

Internal triggers are likely a treasure trove of valuable data sitting around in your office, unused and untapped.  Transaction data of customers that just bought a specific product and are likely to buy an add-on product, or customers that deserve a thank you note and special offer to come back and spend more.  These triggers are great opportunities to enhance your relationship with current customers and engaged prospects, build brand loyalty and generate revenue.

External triggers come from a wide variety of government public record sources, newspaper listings, web site opt-in signups, credit bureaus and more.  Explore the list below to get an idea of the innovative ways Trigger Direct targets the right customer, with the right message at precisely the right time.

This list is just the tip of the iceberg. Call us at 858.254.4400 to learn more.
