“What was really taking a lot of my time was the coding. It was a very time-consuming and manual process, and there was a lack of responsive design within the templates that we were building.”

The Problem
Before stensul, Catalent’s email creation process was not ideal. The coding was difficult; the email design was complicated and could not be viewed well on mobile devices. stensul was not only able to help solve these problems, but has also saved Catalent time and energy, allowing their marketing team to devote resources to higher value projects.
The Goals

Reduce time spent coding emails

Move to mobile-responsive emails

Standardize email design across program
"It was a very time-consuming and manual process,"
When Catalent knew they had to make changes.
Julie Bulfair, Senior Marketing Specialist at Catalent Pharma Solutions,
was frustrated by the standard email building application that she had
been using through her current marketing automation platform. “What
was really taking a lot of my time was the coding,” says Julie. “It was a very
time-consuming and manual process, and there was a lack of responsive
design within the templates that we were building.”
Additionally, there
was little to no structure for the formatting in her emails, making them
non-standard in design.
Julie realized that she needed to find a way to make her email marketing
program easier and more effective after a big a-ha moment:
”Our customers and executive team members not being able to read our
emails on their mobile devices was an obvious opportunity for
improvement that we needed to address immediately.”
So she started
searching for an email creation platform that could solve Catalent’s
challenges.
As Julie was searching for a more efficient, mobile-friendly email builder,
she found the solution when she came across stensul on Oracle’s App
Exchange.

Stensul’s offering was able to solve for Catalent’s time-consuming coding,
standardization, and mobile rendering challenges, all wrapped up in a
tool that was robust and easy to use and customize. It was a win-win!
Catalent’s decision to choose stensul as their email creation platform has
paid off.
All of their emails are now completely mobile responsive,
providing a significantly improved customer experience for their
subscribers. stensul has also helped improve the design of Catalent’s
emails. “We customized our formatting to make it a little more standard,
so that when people received our emails, there’s more
consistency throughout our messaging," Julie said.
According to Jorge Rodriguez, Manager of Sales and Marketing
Technology at Catalent Pharma Solutions, stensul also decreased setup
time by about 40 percent, allowing Catalent’s small email
team to devote more time to higher value projects, like segmentation
strategy for specific product streams.
By using stensul, Catalent has been able to move beyond the initial
challenges in their email creation process and focus on building a more
advanced email marketing program. It was a solution that no other tool
on the market could match.
