Re-engaging the Healthy Way: How Minifarm Achieved a 570% Increase in Email Transactions
How 6 key direct marketing initiatives transformed an unengaged database into a high-performance revenue channel in just one year.

Executive Summary
We partnered with Minifarm, a leading Romanian pharmacy chain, to revitalize their stagnant email marketing performance. When we started, email contributed only 0.62% of total transactions despite a large database. By implementing a year-long strategy focused on marketing automation, template redesign, and behavioral segmentation, we achieved a 570% increase in email-driven transactions, 74% more website traffic, and grew the subscriber base by 120%.
The Challenge
Despite having an established online presence since 2017 and a substantial subscriber list, Minifarm struggled with converting their digital audience into active customers.
- Large but unengaged subscriber database.
- Unusually low email contribution to total website traffic (0.27%).
- Poor overall email performance and low opt-in rates.
- High churn rates among existing leads and customers.
- Inconsistent communication frequency, limited to one email per month.
Our Approach
We executed a comprehensive strategy consisting of 6 key initiatives to turn email marketing into a high-impact sales driver:
- Marketing Automations: Launched welcome series, abandoned cart, and browse abandonment sequences to stimulate conversions.
- Template Redesign: Overhauled the “product catalog” look into a personalized template with editorial content, category headers, and advice sections.
- Strategic Calendar: Increased frequency from 1 to 8 emails per month based on seasonality and customer preferences (e.g., skincare and baby products).
- Granular Segmentation: Implemented targeted communication based on product and brand preferences to increase relevance.
- Visitor conversion: Implemented strategic website sign-up forms offering gifts for first purchases to accelerate database growth.
- Systematic A/B Testing – Tested subject lines and send times to optimize open rates and better understand subscriber behavior.
The Results
A year of six key direct marketing initiatives and continuous data-driven optimization has transformed email into a high-performance sales driver for Minifarm. Here are the results:
