Sotheby’s

Enabling Funnel Precision for Luxury Auctions

Industry: Fine Art, Collectibles, Real Estate & Luxury Auctions
 Location: New York, USA

Executive Summary

Sotheby’s, a global leader in luxury auctions, attracts elite clientele across industries—from watches to fine art and ultra-luxury real estate. However, their digital marketing and operational tools lacked funnel visibility and precision across verticals. Inside Edge 4.0’s Tier 1 package would unify sales insights, automate segmentation, and create personalized communication frameworks across buyer types.

Key Challenges Likely Identified

Disconnected Buyer Journeys
Bidders, art investors, and lifestyle buyers were treated uniformly.

No Multi-Vertical ROI Tracking
No consolidated dashboard for watches vs. real estate vs. collectibles.

Manual Campaign Tracking
High-value relationships were handled reactively, not strategically.
