Kollectif, 14 gourmet options on your doorstep 🍔

‍

Sébastien Leroy, formerly of Diner's Burgers, is no stranger to the restaurant business.

‍

When Covid struck in 2020, he had the idea of creating Kollectif, a dark kitchen initially housing 8 distinct brands, each responding to new market needs.

‍

Unlike some dark kitchens, Kollectif stands out for its innovative concept: open kitchens that allow customers to enjoy food on the spot, either indoors or on the terrace.

‍

Since its creation, the brand has undergone significant expansion, with no fewer than 14 brands now available for delivery on both Deliveroo and Uber Eats.

‍

The move towards an automated marketing strategy 🤖

‍

Naturally, managing marketing for so many brands is no easy task, and the easy way out is often chosen.

‍

"Before Flynt, we were running one BOGO (Buy One, Get One free) promotion after another from Monday to Sunday, without taking into account off-peak hours or peaks in traffic," explains Sébastien.

‍

Sébastien also stresses the lack of data on which to base the right marketing strategy for Deliveroo and Uber Eats.

We were a little at a loss to know which promotion to put on and when.

"Today, thanks to Flynt's Smart Scheduler, each of our 14 brands benefits from a specific promotional scenario. Everything works automatically, and adjusts in real time according to our performance targets and sales figures", he explains.

‍

Target the right audiences to maximize profits 💰

‍

Sébastien shares a new approach adopted at the start of 2024: promotional strategies aimed exclusively at new customers or customers who have been inactive for a certain number of days.

We have a strategy focused on profitability, and it's working: we saw a +37% increase in profits in February.

In conclusion, Sébastien emphasizes the value of investing a little time upfront in setting up promotional offer scenarios, and asserts that the benefits obtained are well worth the effort.

‍

From now on, he logs in from time to time to adjust the strategy according to his preferences: profitability, order volume, online visibility, and so on.

‍

The results are tangible: in 1 year, Kollectif has seen sales grow by 20% and profits by 30%.
