Editor's Notes
Before we kick off the webinar, I’d like to take a moment to introduce our speakers today. We have Dave Munro, Director of Marketing Services at Registria. He’s been in the email and digital marketing space for 17 years and has helped Registria clients make the most of their customer data through digital marketing campaigns. We also have Matt Parsons, Chief Customer officer at PowerReivews. Matt’s primary focus is client satisfaction and has over 20 years of client service experience, managing client success, software implementation, technical support and sales operations.
During the webinar, Dave will review best practices in growing a customer database with super buyers and how to engage with them real time. Then Matt will highlight the importance and impact of product reviews and the best ways to generate and leverage them. And with that, I will turn it over to Dave.
Hunter wanted to create an experience that not only helps customers navigate Hunter’s extensive product offering, but also engages site visitors before, during, and after the purchase process. Hunter Fan’s website now provides visitors a whole new user experience by featuring products that had never before been available online.
Building HunterFan.com posed several challenges and technical requirements, including:
-Integration of CMS E-commerce functionality with Hunter’s ERP
-Implementing a single-page checkout
-Managing over 6,000 partner showrooms and dealers
-Integrating Hunter Fan's custom product information management system built by Ntara, FanBase, with CMS provider
-Assigning more than 47,000 active and legacy SKUs
Product data is able to communicate with Registria so that Registria has full list of products that can be registered. Easy to reach out to customers if there is a recall. Higher conversion rate with photo registration than going online or snail mail card.
Any time a new product is added, we create it in Registria system’s. An update can be sent to their system if any information is changed in Fan Base. Registria has APIs that are well documented-we can send them data as needed very easily. Our developer said “one of my easier implementations.”
PIM contains highly detailed information about every product. Parts Guides, Owner’s Manuals, Energy Guide, Basic Item Information, Dimensions, Pricing, Materials, images, etc.

After fully integrating Hunter Fan onto a new CMS platform and launching a new product line, the team compared data from the same 6-month time frame in 2016 to that in 2014 prior to the new site launch. The following are the results of the project measured from January to June 2014 compared to January to June 2016.
Taking the registration data from Registria.com, our data analysts can export the detailed consumer insights into Tableau to help communicate who is purchasing Hunter products and other information to help make informed marketing decisions.
