Standout Mailpiece Design Award

Why they won

Design that gets personal

Any one of L'Occitane's mailpieces could stand alone as a winning design, oozing the accessible luxury the brand is known for. But what really sets this program apart is its dynamic approach to mail creative.

Every piece is personalized through segmentation, and the design itself shifts based on the goal. Imagery changes too, pulling in variables like a customer's most recent purchase so the piece reflects what that person actually cares about.

“Customers actually come into our stores with their mailpieces, proud, and say, 'Hey, I got this postcard!”

– Emily McDonald, Senior Manager of CRM

Beautiful mail may turn heads, but design that speaks directly to the person holding it is what wins awards.
