Reimagining the Cosmetics Industry with Retail Insights and Shopify Plus
In the ever-evolving cosmetics industry, keeping pace with trends isn’t just a challenge—it’s a vital necessity. The world’s largest cosmetics company understood this imperative all too well. In a constantly shifting industry landscape, they needed a cutting-edge unified commerce solution to streamline site operations, enhance product quality, harmonize data, and expand their global digital footprint. Enter Retail Insights, working seamlessly with Shopify Plus, the catalyst behind their transformative journey towards omnichannel excellence.
The Challenge:
As a premier beauty and wellness brand with a massive global presence, the company set ambitious goals: to double revenue and extend product reach to a broader consumer base. Historically B2B-focused, they grappled with persistent issues in the customer journey and technical hiccups, diverting their attention away from crafting an exceptional digital experience. Manual content and product management processes only exacerbated their internal workload.
The Execution:
Retail Insights leveraged the power of Shopify Plus to fuel their direct-to-consumer (D2C) expansion. A comprehensive discovery process delved into the company’s aspirations and visual identity. On the backend, the focus was on creating a seamless management experience, enabling internal teams to effortlessly curate content on their new website.
By harnessing the expertise of Retail Insights and the capabilities of Shopify Plus, we optimized user journeys and shopping experiences. This was achieved through the implementation of Shopify Headless, Headless CMS, WishList functionality, single-page checkout, global expansion capabilities, and user-generated content. We seamlessly integrated third-party solutions to forge stronger customer connections, including loyalty-building reviews, enhanced product searches powered by Klevu, data-driven relationship nurturing through marketing technology, and AI-driven quizzes and surveys for personalized interactions.
An analytics layer (data fabric) was crafted to extract profound insights from over 100 million loyalty members. Additionally, an Audience Manager was instituted to create custom segments for precisely targeted campaigns.
In the ever-evolving landscape of retail, adaptability is the key to survival. One remarkable example of this adaptability is the transformation undertaken by one of India’s largest retail pharmacy and wellness product chains. Spearheaded by Adobe Magento Retail Insights, this groundbreaking Omni channel transformation has reshaped the way healthcare is delivered and experienced. Let’s dive into the details of this remarkable journey.
Adobe Magento: Empowering Transformation

The urgency to address this issue was further heightened by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, our pharmacy retailer embarked on a mission to provide personalized customer experiences at an enterprise scale.
The Execution: Bridging the Gap
Armed with the Adobe Commerce Experience Cloud, Retail Insights introduced a suite of omni-channel capabilities. This suite empowered pharmacies with a profound understanding of member health and behavioral data. The integration seamlessly fused in-store and digital experiences through automated prescription alerts, data-driven offers, and personalized loyalty programs.
Leveraging Adobe Analytics, the retailer gained invaluable insights into their customer base, enriched by a vast repository of data from approximately 100 million customer loyalty program members. Adobe Audience Manager played a pivotal role in creating intelligent customer segments, enabling tailored messaging via Adobe Campaign.
The introduction of subscriptions, refill reminders, hyper-localization, optimized order management, strategic promotions, and enhanced catalog management rounded out this transformative endeavor.
The Results: A Remarkable Revolution

Customer success story: Leading FMCG Retailer, for instance, recognized the potential to enhance its customer engagement strategies by seamlessly merging loyalty data from both online and offline touchpoints. The retailer aimed to elevate recommendations and interactions spanning in-store, eCommerce, and mobile loyalty applications. To achieve this goal, they employed an innovative technique known as identity resolution, a process powered by AI. This groundbreaking approach allowed them to seamlessly integrate information sourced from diverse customer databases, culminating in the creation of a comprehensive Single Customer View, often referred to as the “Golden Customer Profile.
USE CASE :
Enhancing Customer Data Accuracy through Machine Learning-Based Duplicate Detection
Problem: Identifying and Removing Customer Records Duplicates
Your company has a robust database that has taken years to cultivate. The problem is there might actually be thousands of duplicate records hiding in plain sight.
Databases that contain duplicate customer records is a common problem. Marketers that have trouble achieving a single customer view see effective linkage as the main barrier to creating a truly customized, personalized, cross-channel marketing strategy. According to a 2021 State of Personalization Report, 60% of shoppers say they are “likely” to become a repeat buyer after a personalized shopping experience, up from 44% in 2017. Without achieving a single customer view, your marketing and sales team will face barriers in creating and developing personalization strategies.
As IMPACT reports, there are many ways that duplicate data can negatively affect your sales and marketing returns. For example, you could be spending double the money to reach the same customers twice, thus negatively impacting your outreach and appearing as spam. Other issues include a decrease in email marketing deliverability, customer confusion and frustration, and a lack of personalization.
The best practice marketing techniques require a single customer view, but duplicates can be difficult and time-consuming to find and correct.
Solution: Duplicate Detection Using Machine Learning
Duplicate detection machine learning makes it easy to identify when multiple records are likely to be for the same customer, making sure your database is in prime operating condition.
Eliminating duplicate customer records will allow your marketing and sales teams to deliver a clearer, more accurate, and customized message; saving your company time, effort, and money.
Why Retail Insights: Eliminate Database Duplicate Data with Ease
Considering doing a database cleanup without AI? Database queries for duplicates will not find spelling mistakes, typos, missing values, changes of address, or people who left out their middle name. The solution to these duplication problems is to use fuzzy matching instead of looking for exact matches. Fuzzy matching is a computer-assisted technique to score the similarity of data.
Before you get frustrated, consider that Retail Insights pioneered automated machine learning, and offers the most comprehensive, easy-to-use solution for optimizing and accelerating the development and deployment of AI applications. Our automated text mining and state-of-the-art algorithms are perfect for analyzing customer records, helping you turn an overwhelming administrative project into a focused task that adds immediate value.
Architecture:
Python: For machine learning and scripting.
Scikit-learn: Machine learning library.
Pandas: Data manipulation and preprocessing.
Fuzzywuzzy: Fuzzy string matching library.
Jaccard Similarity: Measure for set similarity.
Flask: Web framework for creating APIs.
AWS, GCP, Azure: Cloud platforms for deployment and scaling.
Let’s get your database cleaned up and move ahead with confidence.
