Marketing Dream Team of the Year, SMB: UNiDAYS

With more than 20 million verified members in 114 markets, UNiDAYS is the world’s largest student affinity network. Since launching in 2011, the UK-based technology company’s vision has been to support, enable and inspire young people to be their best selves, by leveraging their proprietary technology to deliver personalized experiences to the Gen Z audience at scale.

“UNiDAYS started its partnership with Iterable in 2018, with the focus on satisfying the high expectations of our hyper-informed, hyper-connected customer base—students. However, our vision was never to stay still. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, students were unable to study at their institutions and with physical shops closed, there was a real and immediate need to maintain high engagement with our audience,” shares Tamara Castelli, VP of Data and Insight at UNiDAYS. “We needed to raise our game and step-change our marketing capabilities, to become more sophisticated, automated and personalised. Thanks to the strength of the Iterable platform and our open minded, passionate and dedicated team, we are able to deliver extraordinary experiences to our customers. Our business has massively expanded as a result.”

Most Inspiring Switch to Iterable: Zoopla

Zoopla is one of the UK’s leading property marketplaces. They are a property portal website and app who provide estate agents with advertising through their website and our affiliated partner websites. Importantly, Zoopla isn’t just trying to connect customers with a place to live. Instead, they’re looking to connect people with a place to call home.

“Our ultimate goal is to connect homeowners to their dream property. Increasing digital engagement is the key to delivering on this vision. With our legacy tech stack, however, we were stunted by manual data queries, batch data imports, and fragmented views of customer engagement,” shares Kerry Finn, CRM Manager at Zoopla. “By modernizing our tech stack with Iterable, we now have a platform and a partnership that is unlocking our growth. We can now deploy the strategies we need to increase engagement, like testing and rollout. It has made CRM a genuinely much loved part of our business, with all product and technology teams now wanting to bake database remarketing and return driving activity into their plans.”

They also have the option to customize their orders on a weekly basis. Thanks to Iterable, we’re able to deliver our customers individualized messaging at scale, and across multiple channels ensuring each individual receives an intensively personal and cohesive experience, “ shares Carlos Govantes, Senior Director of Lifecycle Marketing and Retention at Imperfect Foods. “Iterable is very intuitive and easy to use. We have been able to train a small team of customer care agents to deploy simple campaigns that notify customers when deliveries get canceled, changed, etc. This frees up so much time for the LCM team to focus on improving the user journey and allows our customer care team to directly connect with customers en masse.”

Iterable received fantastic submissions for each category, and congratulates the finalists of the Expie Awards: A+E Networks, Booksy, Carvana, Coinbase, Drizly, Epic!, Fender, Go Auto, HoneyBook, On the Beach, Patrick Mackie (Made Renovation), Priceline, Redbubble Inc., Sherise Fan (DoorDash), and WeTransfer.
