Munk Store, a Denmark-based eCommerce business selling shoes and clothing from top brands and local Danish brands, faced a significant challenge in replicating the personal touch of their brick-and-mortar stores in their online platform. They were caught between the impersonal efficiency of mega-brands like Amazon and the personal connection offered by physical stores. The challenge was to ensure their online store ran as smoothly as Amazon's, with streamlined checkout and easy-to-find products, while also connecting with their customers in a personal way. They wanted to give their customers a reason to return and shop with them, by making the online shopping experience as personal as buying in a physical store.
Munk Store is a Denmark-based eCommerce business that sells shoes and clothing from top brands as well as local Danish brands. They started as a brick-and-mortar store and expanded to a second location before adding an online store. The company's philosophy is centered around customer experience, aiming to make it so personal that the customer feels like they are buying in a physical store. With only 17 employees, Munk Store has to be crafty in how they scale, using tools like app automator Zapier to help bridge the gap between the in-person and online experiences.
To translate the in-store experience to the internet, Munk Store implemented Bonjoro into their eCommerce flow. Bonjoro allowed them to send personal videos to customers after they made a purchase. These videos, produced by eCommerce manager Andreas Lodahl, thanked customers for their recent purchase, offered them an exclusive discount code, and created a connection that would otherwise be reserved for in-store customers. To manage this process, new orders were added to a Google Sheets spreadsheet, which then triggered Zapier to create an item in Bonjoro with the customer's name and what they purchased. This item creation triggered a notification to Andreas, who then made the videos and sent them off, giving the Munk Store faithful an in-person experience, online.
