Patch Plants Case Study

The Challenge

Patch is a UK-based ecommerce website that sells indoor and outdoor plants, plants pots and many plant care accessories.

When I started at Patch we had daily revenue in the low 4 digits and had very ambitious plans for future growth. One of the key channels that we had identified was Facebook Ads, but before I started the company didn't have the know-how to efficiently scale the social media channel to enable the growth that we were looking for.

The Process

I identified what had worked up to now using Facebook Ads. Past performance was a good indicator of how we could scale in future.

I set up a plan to expand the account and campaign structure as well as laying out the testing plan and schedule. Once we'd set everything up we could go embark on these tests and increase our spend.

We measured performance using in-platform metrics and site metrics to determine success.

The Solution

By the time we had concluded the tests we had doubled our returns enabling the company to 10x in size in less than 2 years.

BodyFX

I started working with BodyFX (home workout programs) as they were heading into a historically slower period for the brand (Q4). They had never run "holiday" sales or messaging, instead opting to reduce spend Oct-(mid)Dec before their big Q1 push. I pitched the client on a pre-holiday strategy (promotion & messaging) for us to start testing in early November, which he approved. The campaigns were a success (within target CPA range) and we were not only able to scale the initial tests, but iterate on the messaging throughout Nov & Dec to scale consistently over the holiday period, resulting in a 129% increase in spend YoY.
