Exclusive Collection

“Working with Jarrang has helped us elevate our email marketing to the next level.”

- Jenny Caldecourt, Group Head of Marketing. Exclusive Collection

Life is never dull for the Exclusive Collection team. With luxury hotels and spas, a golf club, cookery school and a pub under their umbrella, the marketing team are constantly spinning plates and consistently have the pressure of needing to deliver market-leading excellence to their customers.

It’s a hard job to get right and – once they reached a point where they didn’t have either the capacity or the in-house expertise to do their email marketing justice alongside all their other channels – they turned to us for help. From ensuring they remain GDPR compliant through to redesigning their whole suite of emails across the collection and delivering monthly performance reports, we’ve been able to revolutionise their email marketing.

The willingness of the Exclusive Collection team to embrace new ideas and their desire to keep raising the bar have been key to the success they’ve seen.

“We like to think of working with clients on their email marketing as a partnership. Having a shared outcome makes the planning and implementing a whole lot easier and increases the success rate,” says Ben Hocking, Client Success Manager at Jarrang. 

“With the ever-changing demands of a popular hotel collection it’s essential to build flexibility into our planning so the brand can respond to dynamic situations with ease. We do this by implementing a content schedule and by having flexible creative ready to deploy at short notice where required.”

Ben adds: “Working with Exclusive Collection on their email marketing strategy has been a pleasure. After visiting Pennyhill Park, meeting the team, and getting to know the hotels, it was easier to deliver what they wanted to see from their email marketing. Collaborating with Jenny on the emails has been seamless and really enjoyable as new creative ideas are always welcome.”
