Case Study

Digital marketing contributes to the growth of BNP Paribas

Centric is the BNP Paribas’ digital banking platform that offers all of BNP Paribas’ services to its Corporate and Institutional clients worldwide. In an effort to increase customer engagement and improve the onboarding experience, the Centric marketing team turned to Marketo for solutions.

Challenges

The main challenge for BNP Paribas has been to understand the needs and interests of their users and to set up and send emails and surveys easily.

It has also been difficult for them to explain all of Centric’s features to new users, while promoting services that might be useful to existing users. These services range from transactional services (cross-selling) to post-trade services (client servicing).

Solution

Open Reply supported BNP Paribas to streamline their marketing automation processes and to decommission their custom email send solution. Open Reply helped them transition to Marketo smoothly. As part of the project, Open Reply worked with BNP Paribas to launch an on-boarding series which consisted of an engagement program that served content to multiple streams based on members’ maturity levels. The requirements were quite complex and Open Reply crafted the design carefully taking into consideration any future changes that might impact the implementation later on.

The Centric team at BNP Paribas is focussed on offering existing clients the best personalised user experience when using their digital services. BNP’s Centric team also wants to boost the number of users and the range of products the users use.

Benefits

By Implementing Marketo, the Centric marketing team is able to create programs and campaigns that have clearly defined KPIs and measurable successes.

They are able to send relevant content to the users and nurture them over time and convert them from Novice to Mature.
