With the follower growth campaign along with paid social media campaigns Lid’l Dolly's Factory Store following grew 460% over 2 years.

WEBSITE PURCHASE CONVERSION CAMPAIGNS:

Prior to the social media marketing strategy, an online store had not run any Facebook ads. We were able to test and find their target audiences and scaled their ad spend from 1k/ month to 20k/ month and still retain the same ROAS.

I worked with Circle specifically on affiliate partnership projects, email marketing campaigns, and online event management. As worthwhile as the experience was to assist Circle with these tasks, I still (like many) faced a few challenges.

One of those unique challenges was ongoing communication and consistent alignment when it came to back-to-back online events that took place throughout the Fall 2022 season. This caused a level of organization and attention to detail needed to sustain the work to make multiple online events successfully happen simultaneously. Because of that challenge, I learned to leverage putting structure and automated systems into place in order to carry out each task to ensure a smooth client and event attendee experience.
