Hear how EBS built their segmentation strategy

We found out how EBS Building Society were streets ahead on segmentation

18/11/2009

An Post were delighted to have Bernadette Hurley, Head of the Member Experience Team, and Tara Grehan, Segmentation Manager at EBS Building Society tell us how their segmentation strategy delivered a huge increase on response rates.

Bernadette and Tara kindly offered to share their thinking, experience and learnings in developing a smart segmentation strategy. EBS Building Society embarked on a significant journey in 2007. Their goals were to develop deeper insights into their member base, increase relevant contact with their members, and increase sales and return on investment. But first they had to sell it into senior management.

On a wet Wednesday morning, at the Royal College of Physicians, we heard how they did it. And you can find out too by downloading their presentation:
