Ebates

From Surviving to Thriving to Leading

 Ebates

Think back to the beginning of the dotcom boom, when every other site seemed to be some sort of "portal". Now try to recall the names of those sites, and you'll find that most of those companies are now mere memories.

Not ebates.com. They haven't just survived, they've thrived. They were the first online shopping portal to offer cash rebates on every purchase, essentially making them the starting point for a majority of e-commerce traffic. Part of their success can be attributed to constantly looking into the who, what, where and why of Internet shopping - a strategy devised by e-Storm.

An Incentive that Keeps on Giving

For 3 years, e-Storm worked with ebates.com to get under the skin - and into the psyches - of its customers. This collaboration has led to a deeper understanding of customer interests, needs, and shopping habits. Specifically, we conduct community market research, which provides a greater awareness of customer needs and word of mouth marketing campaigns.

For example, in a survey of their customers, 12% said community was where they first heard about ebates.com. We then implement interactive marketing campaigns that consistently outperform many of ebates.com's other online and offline marketing results.

Ebates counted on e-Storm for:
  • Word of Mouth Marketing
  • Community Marketing Research
  • Interactive Advertising
  • Copywriting
  • Creative Development
  • Search Engine Optimization
  • Analytics
  • Affiliate Marketing
