The Challenge

Luxury watches are a high-consideration purchase. Customers need time, education and multiple touchpoints before they buy, so short-term promotions were never going to build the business. Watchlyx needed a retention programme that could carry a long buying journey and stand up to peak season demand, not a discount calendar.

Goals We Set Together

  • Build a retention foundation that did not lean on short-term promotions

  • Support a long, high-consideration buying journey with the right message at each stage

  • Grow SMS from an underused channel into a real revenue driver

  • Arrive at Black Friday and Christmas with a fully connected campaign and automation strategy

  • Grow the owned audience ahead of peak season

Our Approach

We built a complete email and SMS ecosystem across four pillars.

  1. Lifecycle Infrastructure. Created and optimised the full set of core journeys (Welcome, Browse Abandonment, Cart Abandonment, Checkout Abandonment, Post-Purchase and Winback) so each flow worked as part of a connected journey rather than in isolation.

  2. Testing and Optimisation. From February to October we continuously tested subject lines, messaging, offers, creative and channel mix, so peak season decisions were guided by real customer behaviour rather than assumptions.

  3. SMS Revenue Growth. Built SMS into key customer journeys and seasonal campaigns rather than using it only for promotional blasts, reaching high-intent customers at the moments they were most likely to act.

  4. Peak Season Strategy. For Black Friday and Christmas we built a full seasonal ecosystem: dedicated campaign calendars, seasonal SMS, BFCM and Christmas flows, list-growth pop-ups and supporting automations to convert new subscribers and recover high-intent shoppers.

The Results

Across 2025, Watchlyx achieved:

  • £1.97M+ attributed lifecycle revenue
