The Strategy
How BIK boosts customer interest in purchasing home products
The first thing BIK did for Bathla was sent WhatsApp broadcasting in order to reach the current database. Customers with large repurchase budgets who had made purchases a month earlier received it from us.
The season and location served as the basis for the templates that were created. For instance, residents in Bangalore were unable to dry their clothes outside due to the city’s unpredictable rain, and doing so indoors required more space and may not dry the clothes properly.
Thus, the Bathla Mobidry Exa Stainless Steel Ceiling Cloth Dryer – 6ft x 6 Pipes broadcast was chosen by the BIK strategy team. The second broadcast was created with Bangalore’s hard water in mind because it may lead to excessive hair loss, skin rashes, and other problems. Products like water purifiers + Aqua care shower facets were sent in broadcast to solve this real-time household problem.

It enabled agents to quickly access Bathla’s Shopify store, from which they could instantly provide the product image, product description, and add to cart option for clients to make the purchase in one go.
