Onto is establishing a new category in the 'electric car buying' space that is 'car subscriptions'. Rather than owning a car (and all associated costs), Onto offers a monthly flexible contract where all costs are included (including your charging). The challenge is that this breaks the normal assumptions of a driver and is a new way of having a car.

Our acquisition channels and ads need to explain this complex proposition into simple and easy to understand message as well as overcome the initial 'sticker shock'. Since we're all-inclusive, the monthly price is naturally higher than what consumers normally see on leasing deals.

As Head of Growth, I'm at the forefront of driving the acquisition strategy.

I was brought on to help grow the brand using digital advertising and was given a $5,000 media budget to work with. I was able to help scale them up to over $25,000 spend within the same year across a variety of media channels while meeting ROAS standards set by the owner.

Product: Twitter analytics and growth app

Challenge: The platform acquired 1M free users organically but very few converted to paid customers

Project scope: Convert free users to paid customers by leveraging email marketing, content marketing and influencer promotions

Results: converted 10% of free users into paid customers, both premium and enterprise

Celebrante is an Australian celebrant directory which makes money from celebrants when users make an enquiry with them through the Celebrante website.

The business model is simple, generate enquiries through the website at less than it costs in marketing to generate the enquiry.

The previous owner was forced to sell the website after rising Google AdWords costs had made the website no longer profitable.

Lance Tapsell, a long-time celebrant and customer of the site decided to purchase it and try to get it profitable again.

By engaging Pathfinder, the business was able to dramatically reduce its cost per lead and ensure profitability for the business and its future.
