Industry Core Intelligence™

Marketing & Growth Intelligence™

Use customers and services already visible in the POS before spending money on broad advertising that cannot be measured.

What this guide covers

Marketing & Growth Intelligence™ starts with the customer database, visit history, item history, service mix, contact readiness and local catchment. It turns those facts into relevant audiences, clear offers and before-and-after measurement.

Protect and reactivate the existing customer base

A customer who has already trusted the business is usually more relevant than an unknown contact. Separate active, one-time, sleeping and lost customers, then understand which services they previously used.

  • New and repeat customers
  • One-time customers
  • Lost and sleeping customers
  • VIP and high-frequency customers
  • SMS-ready and contactable audiences

Build campaigns around a real service signal

Campaigns are stronger when the audience has a reason to care. Item history can identify doona, blanket, suit, shirt, curtain, wedding, alteration or shoe-service opportunities.

  • Seasonal household services
  • Suit customers without business shirts
  • Cleaning customers without alterations
  • Dry-cleaning customers without shoe care
  • Wedding and formal repacking opportunities

Measure return visits and revenue

Record the audience, message, send date, expiry, offer and resulting tickets. A campaign that creates visits but loses margin through excessive discounting is not automatically successful.

  • Messages sent and delivered where available
  • Customers who returned
  • Tickets and revenue generated
  • Discount and margin impact
  • Repeat behaviour after the offer
Marketing compliance

Use consent-aware customer communication, maintain opt-out processes and follow Australian or New Zealand privacy and marketing requirements.

Direct answers

Frequently asked questions

Clear software decisions come from clear questions. These answers describe DCME’s current product direction and commercial terms.

View all FAQs
Should every customer receive the same offer?

No. Relevant audiences based on visit and service history usually create clearer customer value and better measurement.

How long should an SMS be?

Keep the message clear, identify the business, explain the offer and expiry, and include required opt-out wording under the applicable rules.

Can DCME build customer audiences?

Yes. POS history can support customer recovery, seasonal and cross-sell segments.

Is discounting the only way to reactivate customers?

No. Convenience, reminders, service education, seasonal need and new-service awareness can be more appropriate than a discount.
