October 19, 2018 // Franchising.com // Greenwood Village, CO - Grease Monkey International, LLC, one of the nation’s largest independent quick lube franchisors and part of the FullSpeed Automotive family of brands announced the Winners of its first ever CRM Creative Challenge contest. The goal of the contest was to inspire in-house and vendor partner creative teams to develop more compelling customer relationship marketing communications for Grease Monkey’s repeat customers. All the participating teams were briefed on new customer insights gleaned from previous research and directed to use standard promotional offers so that the creative message and design would be the only difference noticeable by the judges.

Artwork submissions were evaluated by Grease Monkey’s on-line Customer Advisory Panel managed by Research Results, Inc. The Customer Advisory Panel, made up of new and repeat Grease Monkey customers, judged artwork consisting of existing and new campaigns for both the direct mail and email channels. Each submission was judged for overall appeal and inspiring interest in visiting Grease Monkey again for their next service.

The overall winner, Bullseye Marketing, decisively won three out of the four categories with two new submissions. The third win came from an existing campaign which beat out the new submissions. The winning entries capitalized on three areas: personalization, attention getting graphics and simple/straightforward layouts.

Long-time partner Classicplus, parent brand of Throttle, won the important 4th category which represents a new type of communication designed to stay connected and relevant to customers between their service intervals visits.

This contest not only demonstrates Grease Monkey’s laser like focus on the customer but also recognizes the tremendous value of collaborative efforts with its vendor partners Throttle and Bullseye Marketing.
