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.

Client has a long sales cycle on their products, as they are promotional product brands. This makes it challenging to measure the true ROI. A lead that does a quick chat could be worth thousands of dollars more than a $100 ecommerce sale. While ePromos had some rudimentary tracking in place to see the value per lead; they still didn't have true visibility or integration into their ad accounts to optimize towards process.

Crossnet is a revolutionary four-way volleyball game. I started advertising for Crossnet on Facebook and Instagram right before the start of the Covid 19 pandemic. As nationwide lockdowns began, the product started selling quickly. Pretty soon the product went on backorder which caused shipping delays, which ultimately affected ad performance. I worked with the Crossnet team and Facebook to make sure complaints about shipping didn't affect delivery and performance, and ensured that ads and the website had ample warning of shipping delays due to the pandemic.

We started a practice from scratch, and didn't have many insurance contracts. I built a high converting website, wrote sales scripting to close prospects (and much more).
