Increasing Blood and Plasma Donations

Héma-Québec’s primary goal was to increase the number of blood and plasma donations through the automation and personalization of its email communications. Specifically, the organization aimed to personalize communications based on donor profiles to optimize the effectiveness and impact of its marketing campaigns.

Personalized Email Campaign Targeted at New Donors

With the expertise and solution of Dialog Insight, Héma-Québec launched its first personalized email campaign targeted at new donors. This initiative included the development of personalized messages based on individual donor characteristics such as blood type, donation type, age, and gender.

Key Messages

The key messages included a welcome email with an invitation to book an appointment, followed by thank you notes after each donation. To encourage regular donations, reminders emphasizing the importance of the donor’s blood type were sent, along with invitations for additional appointments. After the third donation, donors received a gift as a token of appreciation and were encouraged to share their act of kindness on social media. To strengthen engagement, awareness messages highlighted the importance and impact of each donation. Finally, after the fifth donation, a message was sent encouraging donors to become ambassadors for the cause.
