The Challenge

Udacity wants to expand their consumer business which means they need to figure out what channels work and if any are scalable. The right channel should have a reasonable CPA and be able to scale from 4 figures to 6 figures a month.

The Process

My role is to lead the end-to-end strategy and execution for paid acquisition with the goal of improving CPA and scaling ad spend profitably.

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.
