They had a dealer<br>incentive program but weren\u2019t maximizing engagement.<br>When they did, reward redemptions tripled.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-e5860d90 gb-container-default\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-a378dc95 gb-container-inner\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-22b23c6f\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-177ecfec\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-177ecfec\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-fbba3261 gb-headline-text\">The Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Extu&rsquo;s marine manufacturer client faced strong competition despite a century of pioneering advanced navigation, imaging, and autopilot technology for recreational and commercial vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The manufacturer partnered with Extu to run an incentive program that motivated dealers to recommend their products over the competition. The program launched with a solid foundation, rewarding dealers for qualified sales. To start, the manufacturer kept program communications minimal while they assessed how dealers responded to outreach from a third-party incentive provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-32bb8614 gb-headline-text\">The Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After running the program for a year, Extu saw that dealers were opening and clicking program emails at strong rates. The data showed dealers were curious, motivated, and paying attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With dealers reacting positively to current communications, Extu suggested turning up the dial on engagement. When the manufacturer agreed, Extu executed a Communications Plan that included marketing campaigns designed to stimulate program activity and reward redemption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-e0e96c17 gb-headline-text\">The Impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dealers actively chose the manufacturer who engaged and rewarded them<br>over the big-name competition, and the manufacturer didn\u2019t have to increase their budget or restructure their program to achieve this. They simply used the proven Communications Plan Extu provides with every incentive program. Because dealers earned rewards for qualified sales, the 3x increase in reward redemptions links directly to increased revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-0c101fbb reverse-icon\"><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 19 19\" height=\"19\" width=\"19\"> <path fill=\"black\" d=\"M17.7002 6.37081L11.323 0L9.66189 1.65828L16.0437 8.02909C16.1376 8.12278 16.222 8.22584 16.2924 8.33358H0V10.6758H16.2924C16.2173 10.7835 16.1376 10.8866 16.0437 10.9803L9.66189 17.3511L11.323 19.0094L17.7049 12.6386C18.5448 11.8047 19.0047 10.6898 19.0047 9.50937C19.0047 8.32889 18.5448 7.214 17.7049 6.38018L17.7002 6.37081Z\"><\/path> <\/svg><\/span><span class=\"gb-headline-text\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/extu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Marine-Manufacturer-Case-Study_Unmute-the-Program.pdf\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/extu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/CIM-Case-Study_Driving-Momentum.pdf\">View the PDF<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:0px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-f43df752 gb-button-text gb-button-dark\" href=\"\/contact\/\">Do this for me!<\/a>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-36c353a3\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-36c353a3\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-4314fb5c\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-0ac08711 gb-headline-text\">Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Program activity was transformed immediately.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-a88a9a40\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-a4b816d0 gb-headline-text\"><strong>73%<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">increase in program logins<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-584b729e\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-f655d39e gb-headline-text\"><strong>3x <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">increase in reward redemptions<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the first quarter the Communications Plan was in place, logins increased 73%   over the previous quarter and the volume of rewards redeemed increased 2.8x.
