TMW Unlimited Secures CRM Account for People’s Postcode Lottery

1 year ago

TMW Unlimited will start building up the brand’s loyalty immediately

TMW Unlimited has been appointed by the People’s Postcode Lottery to be its new CRM agency.

The agency, which is part of the UNLIMITED group, won the huge brief following a four-way competitive pitch handled by AAR. Not only is it a win for the TMW team, it is also the first time that the People’s Postcode Lottery will be working with a customer engagement agency.

TMW Unlimited will be responsible for developing and implementing a new loyalty and retention strategy from the ground up, including creating an enhanced player experience.

Over four million people currently play People’s Postcode Lottery – but this appointment signals the first significant investment in customer retention to go alongside the brand’s ambitious growth targets.

The new opportunity will see TMW Unlimited employ the best-in-class data, neuro- and behavioural science expertise from UNLIMITED’s Human Understanding Lab to understand the underlying player motivations, as well as providing martech expertise to help optimise the player experience.

A third of the cost of a People’s Postcode Lottery ticket goes directly to good causes (players have raised over £1.2 billion for thousands of charities and local good causes since 2005), so community remains central to the new strategy.
