TFG was aware of recent advancements in AI technology that would open up new ways to connect with customers. However, since conversational AI is still a new technology, TFG had concerns:
TFG has always had a customer-first approach, which is why it wanted to find new ways to create personalized experiences for its customers without being intrusive. The company was aware of recent advancements in AI technology that would open up new ways to connect with customers. In particular, the organization wanted to explore using conversational shopping as a solution.
However, since conversational AI is still a new technology, TFG had concerns: What would it be perceived as assisting with? Would the solution just provide stock answers (that any algorithm could spit out)? Would it hallucinate and provide inaccurate results? Would it be a closed system?
TFG needed a solution that could properly address these concerns while also driving consequential business impact.
As Isadore grew and scaled its ecommerce ambitions, it knew it had to remain committed to upholding sustainable practices every step of the way.
Isadore has many sustainability initiatives, most of which are focused on the production process. However, Isadore also wanted to find ways to lower its environmental impact through marketing automation (while meeting business goals at the same time).
In particular, the brand wanted to tackle ecommerce returns, which accounted for $890 billion worth of merchandise in 2024 alone.

Isadore was looking for an easy way to reduce the return rate and lower its environmental impact.
Nasty Gal USA provided a unique opportunity for marketing experimentation. The need to build out the brand’s automated customer journeys and overall marketing strategy offered a chance to try new ideas.
While proven and reliable strategies are driving forces for well-known brands like PrettyLittleThing, Nasty Gal’s status granted its marketing team the freedom to experiment with different campaigns, test bold strategies, and innovate the customer experience using Bloomreach Engagement’s comprehensive capabilities.

Despite Interflora’s strong presence across France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and beyond — which includes an extensive network of florists — Interflora struggled to provide a seamless online customer experience. In terms of B2C retail, Interflora was still fairly digitally immature but was eager to put its first-ever site search bar on its website. However, because Interflora lacked the tools to understand product data and customer behavior and preferences effectively, it was difficult to personalize marketing efforts and improve customer engagement. These issues were compounded by the growing competition from both traditional florists and new online-only flower delivery services, which added pressure on Interflora to innovate and enhance its digital offerings.
Given the multilingual demands of Interflora’s operations across different countries, the search bar also needed to be agile in its contextual understanding and capable of effectively processing French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian. Additionally, Interflora aimed to demonstrate the value of its new digital capabilities with clear, actionable metrics and was focused on measuring the impact of these changes on revenue — particularly through improvements in search and merchandising.
