Ise AI & Samsonite: Driving 30% Sales Growth Through Hyper-Personalized Content

Challenge
Samsonite faced lukewarm engagement in key markets as generic global content failed to resonate with regional demographics. European-centric lifestyle imagery (featuring models, locations, and cultural contexts) underperformed in African and Middle Eastern markets, where customers wanted to see products used by people who looked like them in locally relevant settings. With luggage being a high-consideration purchase, this disconnect risked losing customers at every funnel stage – from initial ad engagement to final checkout.
Solution
Ise AI deployed its granular personalization engine to transform Samsonite’s content strategy:
Demographic-Driven Imagery: Replaced static global shoots with AI-generated content featuring region-specific models, apparel, and scenes (e.g., Dubai skylines for UAE customers, Lagos markets for Nigerian audiences)
Full-Funnel Adaptation: Applied personalized visuals across 3 key touchpoints:
Top-of-Funnel Ads: Dynamic creative optimization (DCO) for social/media buys
Web PDPs: Hero images featuring customized model demographics and products in context (e.g., safari tours for adventure luggage in Kenya)
CRM Channels: Tailored email/SMS content with geo-specific imagery and layouts
Asset Recycling and Variations: Repurposed existing product photos into thousands of market-specific variants
Results
2.5x higher CTR on personalized ads vs. generic campaigns
18% conversion rate boost
90% faster content experimentation and production
