The Challenge

In 2012 I founded the Inkkas company (www.inkkas.com) and successfully scaled the company from zero into a multi-million dollar brand and then sold the company in 2016 to celebrity investor Marcus Lemonis. The process of launching and scaling a new Ecommerce brand from scratch was riddled with many challenges along the way. Some of the major challenges included branding, go-to-market strategy, fulfillment, sourcing, web design & development, customer acquisition, paid advertising, conversion rate optimization and more. Along with my founding team, we were able to overcome every obstacle and devise a customer acquisition strategy the led to success.

The Process

As the founder and chief marketing officer of the company, I was responsible for defining the overall vision and strategy of the company. I was involved daily in managing and implementing the marketing campaigns across all paid advertising channels, especially Facebook, Instagram, Google, Youtube and more. I was also directly involved in all web design, development and conversion optimization efforts and was able to devise a successful growth strategy to scale the company.

The two of us needed to determine viable benchmarks of the cost per lead to determine whether or not this was a profitable business venture to supplement Nefaire. Additionally, we needed to determine the best ad platform to reach people interested in online dermatology.

Zest Dental Solutions

Zest Dental is one of the largest dental implant manufacturers in the U.S. Their primary audiences are Dentists at offices across the country who perform surgery with dental implants. Some challenges I faced were

  • The client is a leader in the space which makes new customer acquisition strategies/expansion more difficult 
  • They had no great offers to use in their campaigns 
  • Sophisticated B2B audience
  • Brand loyalty to competitors in the market


The strategy

I began by leveraging the client’s existing data and Google’s machine learning algorithm to ensure that we’re targeting users most likely to convert. The goal was to feed the algorithm with the best data possible so we could go after new customers searching for non-branded terms.


After sufficiently utilizing campaign structures to segment the customer journey map in Google Ads, I began a substantial increase in ad spend to scale this account while maintaining an optimal ROAS.


Once we established a great search ads structure, we began to move higher in the funnel utilizing Google display, discovery and video campaigns for new customer acquisition.
