Synergy! and Futureshop Unite to Elevate E-Commerce Customer Experience

In a significant development for the e-commerce sector, Synergy Marketing Corporation, headquartered in Osaka, has announced a partnership with Futureshop, well-known for its innovative SaaS-based e-commerce solutions. This collaboration, effective from July 8, 2025, aims to enhance customer experiences by integrating customer data seamlessly between Synergy! and Futureshop’s platforms.

Building a Better Customer Experience

The integration allows e-commerce businesses utilizing either Futureshop or Futureshop's omni-channel services to automatically transfer customer data to Synergy!, facilitating personalized email communication and the utilization of LINE messaging services. This capability is particularly crucial in today’s fast-evolving e-commerce landscape, where personalized engagement not only enhances customer satisfaction but also drives brand loyalty.

Responding to e-Commerce Growth

According to research by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, the BtoC e-commerce market is projected to grow by 9.22% year-on-year in 2023, reaching approximately 24.84 trillion yen. The BtoB and CtoC segments are also witnessing impressive growth rates. As competition intensifies within this burgeoning market, businesses are increasingly required to provide tailored customer experiences to differentiate themselves and cultivate a loyal customer base.

Adapting to the diverse purchasing channels and customer interactions thus demands sophisticated operational strategies. The collaboration between Synergy! and Futureshop addresses this imperative by alleviating the burdens linked to system integration, which often represents a significant challenge for businesses, particularly in terms of cost and infrastructure setup.

This includes timely reminders for abandoned carts and personalized product recommendations via LINE or email, ultimately enhancing customer engagement and driving repeat purchases.

2. Intuitive User Interface Enhancing Efficiency
Synergy! boasts an intuitive design that requires no manual, allowing staff to navigate and operate the platform effortlessly. This functionality minimizes operational time constraints, enabling teams to focus on executing effective marketing strategies.

3. Comprehensive Support with High Customer Satisfaction
Synergy! offers dedicated support during the initial implementation phase, providing consultations on configurations and operations, alongside web-based instruction to ensure successful utilization of the platform, attaining a customer satisfaction rate exceeding 90%.

Case Study: GOOD NATURE STATION ONLINE

Managed by Biostyle Corporation in Kyoto, the online store utilizes this collaboration to bolster its personalized marketing strategies based on purchase data. The upcoming efforts include customized communication based on customer attributes and buying behaviors to enhance overall operational efficiency and elevate customer experience.

In the words of Biostyle’s representatives, "As we reached our five-year milestone, with user numbers increasing, enhancing CRM for both online and physical stores became paramount.
