18% of consumers went on to purchase the full-size product after sampling

Objective

Jean Paul Gaultier wanted to reach new consumers in the Swiss market and drive reviews and purchases of their key fragrance, Le Beau Le Parfum.

Solution

Using SoPost’s Lead Ad integration with Facebook, consumers could request a sample directly within the Facebook lead form before SoPost automatically validated orders ready for dispatch.

SoPost also managed sample fulfillment, including the shipment of samples with bespoke packaging and scented leaflets.

To encourage reviews and purchases post-trial, consumers received two emails:

  • One linked to the full-size product on the retailer’s website, impo.ch
  • The second linked to a survey with questions about their experience with the product, whether they had heard of Le Beau Le Parfum before, recommendation likelihood and purchase intent questions.
