Deck 10 · Automated Web Communications + Socials

OMX Innovation · Deck 10 · Automated Web Communications + Socials

Every OMX touchpoint — email, web push, social, in-app, on-pack QR — generated, personalised, and orchestrated automatically.

Turn the marketing function from a calendar of campaigns into an always-on, customer-aware comms machine — and turn social from a job-of-last-resort into a daily content engine.

Why now

The wedge.

The 540k unmanaged SMBs don't read newsletters. They notice posts, react to triggered messages, scan codes.
Generative AI now writes brand-safe variant content at scale — what used to take a comms exec a week is a 10-minute brief.
OMX already has the data (N3 spend, category lifecycle, sales rep cadence, promo calendar) in Snowflake. The trigger logic is already 80% there — it's the orchestration layer that's missing.
Competitive: Officeworks AU runs daily organic social + targeted email; OMX runs neither at the same cadence.

What this covers

What's in scope.

01

Triggered customer comms

back-in-stock, abandoned cart, contract review reminder, BTS reminders, NDD delivery confirmation, supplier-rebate insight (B2B angle)

02

Lifecycle email

onboarding (Stage 3 Switching pull-through), win-back, dormant-account nudge, anniversary

03

Social content automation

daily/weekly post generation across LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok — brand-tone-locked variants for each channel

04

Always-on micro-campaigns

react to event triggers (school holidays, end-of-quarter, supplier launches) without a comms exec lifting a finger

05

Public-facing chatbot

site-embedded conversational assistant (a "lite" Ask Max for non-logged-in visitors)

06

Comms measurement loop

every send/post tagged → conversion attributed back → next send tuned (closed loop in Snowflake)

03 / 06

The problem

What's broken.

01

Manual comms cadence

campaigns are batch-and-blast on a calendar, not triggered by customer signal

02

Social is reactive

posts are sporadic, often last-minute, often un-branded

03

No segmentation engine

N3 customer gets the same email as a guest checkout

04

Generative AI underused

Anthropic/OpenAI-grade content tools exist but no production pipeline at OMX

05

No attribution loop

comms team can't show which posts/emails drove revenue

06

Brand drift

voice/tone varies across channels because each channel is hand-written by a different person

04 / 06

The benefits

The value story.

Lever

Mechanism

Sizing

Email-driven revenue lift

Triggered + lifecycle vs batch

Industry benchmark: triggered email generates 3-8x revenue per send vs batch (DMA/Litmus)

Comms team capacity

AI-generated variants + scheduling

1 marketer → 5-10x output; reclaim hours for strategy

Social engagement

Daily branded posts vs sporadic

Posting cadence → reach correlation is well documented; LinkedIn/Meta both reward weekly+

Switching pull-through

Onboarding lifecycle (links to Deck 09)

Onboarding email series typically lifts first-90-day retention 20-40%

Cost-to-comms

Replace ad-hoc copywriting + design

Quantify against current comms team time + agency spend

Problem vector grid (4-8)

: Batch-blast / Reactive-social / No-segment / Brand-drift / No-attribution / Underused-GenAI / Manual-everything / No-trigger-engine

P2

Comms triggers map

: Customer event → trigger → channel(s) → message variant → CTA → conversion (Sankey-style)

P3

Before/after

: Today's monthly comms calendar (sparse) vs Stage's daily auto-comms grid (dense + targeted)

P4

Architecture pipeline

: Snowflake (signals) → Trigger engine (Hightouch / Census or build-on-Snowflake) → Generative content layer (Anthropic/OpenAI with brand-locked prompts) → Channel adapters (Email/Push/Social APIs) → Attribution loop → Snowflake

P5

Sample asset gallery

: 12 example outputs — back-in-stock email, BTS LinkedIn post, abandoned cart push, NDD delivery confirmation, contract review email, win-back, anniversary, supplier-launch announcement, supplier-rebate insight, holiday promo, social-proof testimonial, founder LinkedIn voice

Audience

Primary: CMO + Chief Digital Officer + CFO. Comms-driven revenue lift + capacity reclaim is the boardable story. Secondary: Customer Service (deflection), Sales (lifecycle pull-through), Brand team (voice governance), Legal/Privacy (consent/automation guardrails).
