Process

We combined behavioral science and SATS´s data on their customers activity. Based on these insights, we developed four behavioral segments of passive members to be able to customize measures and messages. Each intervention was tested through A/B experiments and continuously adjusted.

"We are competing with Netflix and Instagram for people's time. That's why we also have to use psychological tools to get them in the door."

The use of behavioral segments

Scaling up single interventions could fund the entire project. Furthermore, the project laid the foundation for continued experimentation at SATS.
