The British International School of Houston is a premium private K-12 located in one of Houston's suburbs. Because of its location away from the center of wealth, Houston's heavy traffic, and it's location in a suburb away from main roads or highways, BIS Houston was known as one of Houston's best kept secrets but had reached a plateau in its growth. In addition, as a premium private school, BIS Houston also has 2 or 3 competitors that are located closer to the center of wealth within Houston that have comparable tuition rates (averaging $24,000/year per child).

I co-built HearGift from zero to $1.5M in sales in 18 months. As a small hearing aid company in a sea of giants, we had to put our most creative hats on to bootstrap the company and gain a loyal client base. Aside from leveraging Facebook advertising and email marketing to generate sales, what we are most proud of is the ability to build a trustworthy and transparent company, with owners who were not afraid to be on camera, offer transparency and candid engagement with our customers. With this, we have a built a reputation of one of the most caring hearing aid companies in the world, changing thousands of lives. Our over 300 5-star reviews show that and it's one of our greatest achievements.

Key achievements:

• $1.27m in sales in the first 18 months, with an advertising spend of $428,302 (Facebook)
• $233,473 in sales with an advertising spend of $32,675 (Google)
• return customer rate of 10% (hearing aids are usually a one-time purchase)
• over 200 - 5 star reviews, dozens of video testimonials

While they had a website and a digital presence, marketing efforts were still very reliant on traditional media, particularly television and print to generate leads and brand awareness.

Past attempts at running Google Ads through digital marketing agencies were unsuccessful and management were unsure if they could justify the return on investment.
