The brand was only doing retargeting for Facebook ads and needed someone to come in and build a full-funnel build for them. I was able to build a full-funnel for them using Facebook ads. We scaled the ad spend from $3k/month to $14k/month while maintaining 14x ROAS.

Each campaign has its own challenges, but that is what makes it so fun! Figuring out which creators will optimize each campaigns return. The main challenge is to ensure both parties understand what they need!

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.

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.
