THE CRISIS

Untapped Revenue in Abandoned Shopping Carts

The Revenue Recovery Challenges:

Massive Cart Abandonment

70% Loss Rate

Big Fish Games faced industry-standard 70% cart abandonment rates, leaving significant revenue unrealized. Without automated recovery strategy, thousands of interested customers vanished before completing purchases.

Untapped Customer Data

Data Utilization Gap

Valuable customer data existed across platforms but couldn't be leveraged effectively for targeted marketing. Customer behavior insights remained trapped without integration enabling action.

Manual Marketing Limitations

Personalization Constraints

Without automated systems, personalizing customer outreach at scale proved impossible. Marketing team couldn't implement targeted campaigns addressing abandoned carts, product reviews, or personalized offers efficiently.

Business Impact: For Big Fish Games, a leader in casual gaming for two decades owned by Aristocrat Leisure, cart abandonment represented massive missed revenue opportunity

The company needed comprehensive growth engine strategy converting abandoned carts into recovered revenue through targeted, automated campaigns.
