Build a luxury expedition brand for online and tradeshows use.

Renown was having great success with direct mailers since the 90's, but hadn't developed their online presence and paid media strategy. We had no data going in on which products to focus on, which channels to choose, or how to position ourselves in the market.

The CLL (language center) wanted to launch a new online platform (named VISIAGORA) to propose new trainings on any matters such as: astronomy, cooking, languages, kids development and many more. Classes were given by professional at different moments of the day for about 2 hours during 1, 2 or several months.

The challenge was to quickly promote this training for the summer in a short laps of time (campaign launched in June for training starting in July) and knowing the platform was new and we needed it to be dissociated from the main organization (CLL) specialized in languages.

In addition, it was the beginning of the COVID period (2020) and people were just about getting used to work remotely and to use digital tools for their trainings.

Bellissimo is one of our flagship clients as we like mutually like to say : we scaled together.

Their online store capped sales as their only traffic source was Facebook advertising for a sustainably long time. When we started working with Bellissimo in 2020, our team set up their email marketing infrastructure. Over the last 2 years we have expanded our ecosystem to include: Influencer Marketing (now collaborating with celebrities like Snoop Dogg, Steve Aoki, Floyd Mayweather and Jamie Foxx), text marketing, social media marketing, and a website revamp complete with hat customization tool.

Bellissimo now sees sustainable increase month over month. This year Bellissimo is seeing 160% more revenue than last year. 

Key achievements: 

• Influencer marketing strategy and partnerships facilitated in the fashion, sports and entertainment industry: Steve Aoki, Floyd Mayweather, Snoop Dogg Jamie Foxx, Mr. Mature

• 0 to 150k organic monthly impressions on Pinterest within 6 months

• 26k engaged Instagram followers

• created a targeted fan group and grew it to 1k members in one month, now at 3k members; the results have been overwhelming: group members share great content (ie. wearing the brand's products), this "feeding us content" which in return is bringing continuous growth; we also started to monetize the group and gain direct Shopify sales from group members

• Created an automated way to receive customer tags, photos and videos. Now, about 50% of our content is generated by other users which means we get extra reach and impressions without added effort.
