Mobile Messaging Powers Papa Gino’s Pizzeria and D’Angelo Grilled Sandwiches through COVID

Using Mobivity’s Recurrency platform, Papa Gino’s Pizzeria and D’Angelo Grilled Sandwiches (PGDA) segmented customers and created a mobile messaging campaign. This targeted customers who had not visited a PGDA 90-days prior to COVID restrictions. With highly targeted offers encouraging a return visit, this campaign drove twice as many return visits as non-SMS subscribers and 17% more than members of the company’s loyalty program. With this campaign that ran during the pandemic, PGDA saw Mobivity’s mobile messaging deliver an average Return on Marketing Spend of 440%, compared to its other traditional marketing channels.

“Mobivity deserves this win for their quick, strategic thinking, which helped see us through the COVID 19 pandemic,” said Deena McKinley, Chief Marketing Officer at Papa Gino’s Pizzeria and D’Angelo Grilled Sandwiches. “When the pandemic led restaurants to dining room closures, we really doubled down on take-out and delivery, and Mobivity understood how to connect with our customers, encouraging them to return more frequently, and return they did.  By understanding the value of creating an owned mobile messaging channel, Mobivity helped us amass valuable first-party customer data that insulated us from the downturn of sports, large gatherings, catering and other forms of traditional advertising. By owning a direct, targeted and personalized channel, we were able to not only sustain, but grow customer frequency and spend despite clear challenges imposed by the pandemic.”
