SiiSi CRATES is a start-up based in New York (USA) which opened for business back in
2021. SiiSi CRATES provides handcrafted gifts such personalised crates or crates cloths for
newborn babies. These gifts crates usually contain baby products and cloths that can last for a
lifetime.
Problem
SiiSi CRATES runs a website and a social media platform with roughly 291 followers and a
very small customer base. The company wants to target and acquire potential new customers
by building a platform to introduce Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the business’s website.
A subset of potential AI Projects for SiiSi CRATES are listed below:
Advertising or targeting potential customers.
Optimise sale and grow the customer base.
Create a database of baby items or brands and use to create portfolio on the website.
Create great ranking for search results.
Get sentiment analysis from previous and new customers.
Create a phone app to facilitate customers’ demands and save time on telephone
discussions.
How to add personalised gift crates portfolios to the store (customer preference).
Categorise what sort of customers are using the product feature.
Categorise what items customers use more or less.
Marketing the gift crates.
Categorise customers into different cities or location.
Collecting data over generated surveys.
Create unique gift ideas tailored to the recipient's interests, personality, age, gender,
relationship, budget and occasion (diversify from baby brands).
Track gift delivery via GPS.
Content creation for social media platforms/Improve social media and email
campaigns.
Text generating customer service chat bot on website.
Learning the gift messages that suit different situations.
Areas of opportunity
1. Use the SiiSi website and Chatbots to grow the customers’ base:
By targeting potential customers and marketing the business to expectant mothers or
their families in hospitals, private and public companies, event planners, churches,
shopping mall and markets and so on. This new customer base would give information
on location, baby item or brand preferences, budget estimates and categorise each
customer.
No training Budget to

friends, company, budgets or ideas)

E. Conclusion
The project is likely to succeed following the EROI framework and would create significant
value for the business and grow the customer base. However, the effort and financial
investment required to get the AI platform running is very high for a small start-up business. I
would suggest investing in Scenario 1 and grow the customer base using the websites, emails,
chatbots.
