Marston's Beer Company needed a way to centralise their email databases across a range of different brands. CST created Ale Mail, a system to collect and store communication preferences and details for fans and customers.

In addition to managing the contact details, CST provided an email designer based on re-usable content blocks that could be used by the various brand teams to send out email and SMS campaigns.

Some of the key features included:

  • Role-based security, allowing users access only to the brands they were responsible for
  • API to allow other agencies to integrate brand website contact collection and management
  • Easy-to-use email designer, but with professionally created and tested content blocks
  • Preference centre - making it easy for people to choose how they wanted to be contacted or to opt-out of all communications.
