The Challenge

Please read the Process overview first.


Olivela went against the expert opinions of not only myself, but our paid social lead and their Facebook rep. They wanted to set up their ad sets in a very niche way by targeting each celebrity and their charity. For example, one ad set for Jennifer Anniston and one ad set for St. Jude. Not only did I struggle with targeting challenges, but creative issues as well. The celebrities and charity's representation were later seeing the creative live on their feeds and telling Olivela they were not approved, so I had to pause ads and/or launch new ones. The algorithm was consistently being reset almost on a daily basis due to unforeseen circumstances on Olivela's side.

The Process

Olivela is a philanthropic clothing retailer who believes giving back should be built

into every single transaction. Customers shop their favorite designer, fashion and

beauty brands while Olivela donates 20% of the proceeds to their partnering

charities.


Olivela partnered with various celebrities during the 2019 holiday season for their

$1 Million Pledge. This extensive and exclusive list included well-known celebrities

like Selena Gomez, Jennifer Aniston and Dakota Fanning.


When users clicked on a paid social ad or visited Olivela’s website, they’d have

the opportunity to subscribe to emails. When users provided their email address,

Olivela donated $5 to the partner celebrity’s charity. Olivela would continue this

for up to $1M in donations.


The objectives of the $1 Million Pledge were as follows:

1. Raise donations for several incredible organizations including: The WE

Organization, St. Jude, and CARE.

2. Increase awareness of Olivela’s brand, drive sales and new subscribers.


I diversified Olivela’s acquisition campaigns by launching a Conversions

Objective and Catalog Sales Objective (DABA) to acquire and attract new customers on Facebook and Instagram.


Through my evergreen static and dynamic remarketing campaigns, users who were top of funnel would be captured at the bottom. Evergreen shopping ads were displayed

to initial email subscribers that had Olivela donate $5. Visitors to Olivela’s landing

page via a partnering celebrity were re-served ads from the same landing page.

By implementing this full-funnel, tailored approach, Olivela’s $1 Million Pledge was

a success.

Onto

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.
