Creating a smart retail experience with SleekFlow: Helmet King’s journey

With professional service and genuine passion, the brand is dedicated to promoting motorcycle culture and has become a trusted brand for motorcyclists in Hong Kong.

A customer-centric one-stop motorcycle shop committed to delivering a novel riding experience

Beyond selling products, Helmet King aims to help riders discover all aspects of the charm of a "two-wheeled life," creating memorable journeys for both beginners and seasoned riders. Through continuously innovating their service processes and customer experience, they have built a brand culture rooted in enthusiasm and trust.

Business challenges: Traditional retail models no longer meet evolving customer expectations

Dispersed communication channels led to missed sales opportunities

Before adopting SleekFlow, Helmet King had to manage inquiries from WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and even email all at once. Sales staff struggled to track every conversation, resulting in poor follow-up, lost orders, and increased pressure on frontline employees.

Customers expect real-time responses and a seamless O2O experience

Today’s consumers are accustomed to researching and comparing products online before reaching out to message businesses. If businesses fail to respond to messages quickly and accurately, they risk losing customers to competitors. Manual responses could no longer meet the demand to match the interaction speed that larger e-commerces can provide.

Inadequate post-sales service hindered lifecycle marketing

Helmet King used to handle post-sales communication manually, such as sending maintenance reminders and updates. This resulted in missed details and tedious, time-consuming work for staff. Over time, customers were likely to forget about Helmet King, shortening the customer lifecycle and limiting repeat business potential.

Choosing to work with SleekFlow wasn’t an attempt to chase gimmicks, but a necessary step for survival and growth.

Solution: SleekFlow powers an omnichannel smart retail platform

Unified inbox improves service efficiency and consistency

With SleekFlow’s unified inbox for multiple integrations, Helmet King now manages all soical platform conversation histories on a single platform, ensuring every inquiry receives timely follow-up. No matter which social media  the customer is reaching out from, sales staff can instantly access conversation context and status, significantly reducing missed messages and human error.

Automated interactions enhance conversion and customer experience

Using Flow Builder, Helmet King has designed automated replies, product recommendations, and promotional messages, effectively converting each conversation into a transaction. This allows the team to focus on high-value interactions while keeping customers engaged with timely and personalized communication.

To further enhance sales efficiency, Helmet King is also trialling AgentFlow to build an AI agent that qualifies leads and scores customer behavior, identifying clients with genuine purchase intent and keeping them warm—ensuring high-interest customers don’t slip through the cracks.

Strengthened after-sales touchpoints foster long-term customer relationships 

In addition, Helmet King leverages Flow Builder to automatically send service reminders, such as oil changes and helmet replacements, thereby enhancing after-sales care and fostering long-term relationships. Customers appreciate the thoughtful service and are more likely to return. 

Leveraging SleekFlow’s broadcast feature, Helmet King can proactively re-engage customers with personalized messages, such as birthday greetings and retargeted campaigns for specific customer segments. These campaigns drive engagement, increase repurchase rates, and strengthen retention and loyalty—all without adding to the team’s workload.

Shopify and ERP system integration, centralizing data storage

Helmet King has natively integrated their Shopify store and connected Microsoft Dynamics 365 with SleekFlow through API integration. All customer data, purchase history, and order information are synced to SleekFlow, enabling the team to deliver relevant, timely replies.

Furthermore, this data is stored in Custom Objects (customized data entities), allowing for advanced customer segmentation. This enables the team to identify high-potential customers and take proactive steps to improve conversion rates.

Implementation results: 3X increase in ROI, streamlined processes, and higher customer satisfaction

Through SleekFlow’s integration with Shopify and ERP system, Helmet King can track drop-out and response rates for each marketing campaign and adjust strategies accordingly, resulting in a 3X increase in ROI.

At the same time, the team can proactively engage customers through personalized messages, enhancing retention and loyalty without expanding headcount or resources.

Moreover, sales staff no longer waste time searching through messages or copying information. With all customer histories and purchase behaviors centralized on the platform, the team can work more efficiently, boosting overall morale and improving closing rates.

What we found to be incredibly valuable was SleekFlow’s Customer Success team. They didn't just hand over the platform and leave us to figure it out on our own. Instead, they took time to understand our goals, and worked to directly improve our helmet sales.
