OUR IMPACT
Supporting Público to build a data-led strategy and increase retention and loyalty from their subscribers
FT Strategies helped Público, a leading newspaper in Portugal, focus more on data to reach and keep digital subscribers.
The team designed a new governance model identifying three pillars – acquisition, lifetime value and culture – to focus their activities. They identified 50 experiments responding to metrics, including a new churn model, a redesign of the homepage and different versions of subscriber campaigns to better understand why users engage and return. This resulted in a fundamental culture shift as departments came together to experiment and learn.
