Source of Truth

Milk Bar is a bakery and confectionery company based in New York City. It was founded in 2008 by James Beard award-winning pastry chef Christina Tosi, and gained popularity for delicious desserts like their Milk Bar Pie, Cereal Milk Soft Serve, and Compost Cookie. Milk Bar has bakery locations across the United States serving up sweet (and occasionally savory) treats as well as an online store that brings the Milk Bar experience straight to consumers’ door.

And in our opinion, if you haven’t tried Milk Bar truffles…well, you haven’t lived yet.

Staying Nimble and Collaborative

Challenges

Milk Bar’s performance marketing team faced the common and frustrating challenge of finding a source of truth while scaling their digital presence. From consolidating disparate data sources and sorting through various metrics across platforms, the team was stretched thin across a bloated tech stack. There had to be a better way to spend their valuable time.

When the team got tired of asking, “Where do you see that number?” they decided it was time to find a centralized solution for analytics and attribution. 

Solution

Instead of finding a solution for analytics, attribution, and segmentation individually, Milk Bar’s SVP of Omnichannel, Greg Dalby, wanted to simplify and consolidate. His team went on a hunt to find the perfect Goldilocks solution: easy to use and appropriate for Milk Bar’s current revenue and future growth goals, providing a real-time source of truth at the right price point.  

Enter, Triple Whale. 

“I really felt like Triple Whale would be a tool where we could all speak the same language. I also liked that it was easy for my team to get to the data that they need to understand.”
Greg Dalby, SVP Omnichannel, Milk Bar

Milk Bar went all-in on Triple Whale’s tools, signing up to use the Summary, Triple Pixel, Insights, and Creative Cockpit to quickly get the performance team on the same page. The first problem Greg wanted the team to tackle? Understanding their customers’ shopping habits and purchase frequency.

Strategy

Greg started with getting his team familiar with Triple Whale, ensuring they were using it as a source of truth in their day-to-day. 

“We've started utilizing [Triple Whale] a lot more, with the teams getting involved in it daily. And even our merchandiser is starting to look at things like the product analytics to understand bundling more effectively…it's our book of truth when it comes to what's performing and what's not. We are at the point where we live and die by what's in Triple Whale from a standpoint of performance.”
Greg Dalby, SVP Omnichannel, Milk Bar
  • Leveraging Returning Customer Metrics: AOV, and Bundling: Lack of accurate data on returning customers and the lag-time between purchases was impacting the strategy around re-targeting customers. By examining the data in Triple Whale, the team discovered the lag-time was much shorter than they initially thought, and were able to effectively shift messaging to drive action more effectively, particularly for their loyalty program. 
  • Understanding the Customer Journey and Lifetime Value: The Milk Bar team looks at various reports to nimbly react to fluctuations in ecommerce performance. These reports give more visibility into which campaigns are driving more new customers and the ability to shift our strategies and bidding to support these campaigns.
  • Personalizing with Post-Purchase Survey: The team is using Triple Whale’s post-purchase surveys to inform testing new value propositions and reasons to buy.. Even better: when the team begins running Connected TV, they’ll be able to leverage the surveys and Total Impact attribution to understand the value of those campaigns.

“We're not waiting for data pulls to happen and the marketers have access to it. We don't need to rely on someone else to go get the data for them. They're able to access that themselves. So that was a huge step forward for me. And honestly, we've really loved working with the Triple Whale team.”
