The Challenge

Expedia had acquired a collection of brands in the vacation retal industry to compete against AirBnb, including VRBO, HomeAway, Homelidays, TopRural, among others.


Traditionally these brands had operated independently in different markets.


Expedia wanted to bring consistency, efficiency and scale to all their online media efforts


I joined the global marketing strategy team supporting them develop the infraestructura, processes and scale up their marketing efforts globally from this centralised team.

The Process

Led the global marketing acquisition strategy, roadmap campaign and testing plan across EMEA, Americas and APAC. Built the system, frameworks, best practices and scaling up of activities. 


  • Global acquisition strategy and roadmap.  Identifying segments, mapping customer acquisition journey (Media, CRM and Sales) and campaign planning and management. 
  • Media and programmatic team coordination: (Display/YouTube/Paid social, SEM, email, and Affiliates): Agreement on media budget distribution, mix of channel and testing/optimisation campaign roadmap. Partnering with product to develop the technology for advanced audience targeting, smart bidding, programmatic/ messaging and personalisation enablement.
  • Messaging /content: Leveraging market research and user insights to brief the creative agency, coordinate the generation of the assets and creative concepts (display assets, landing pages, email cycles).
  • Reporting and attribution: Working with Business Intelligence to create a marketing reporting and attribution system that would become a unique source of truth and help the organisation understand the impact of each channel activity on driving conversions, decision making on the distribution of budgets and campaign optimisation.

ROAS

Capabunga

The first product we decided to focus on was Capabunga. Capabunga is a wine stopper invented by two veterans of the wine industry. The challenge was a low product price point, so we decided to do a bundle set to raise the AOV and create a separate landing page. Before iOS changes, we were able to hit our goal of a 2.2 ROAS on our Facebook campaigns. We've since decided to focus on another product they're getting ready for launch called the Market Tote.

Helping them scale from spending $2k per month to over $9k while keeping between a 2-3x return when I was done. I also introduced Google Shopping and search which was brand new to the brand.

Imperial Tea

Imperial Tea is a premium tea company started almost 30 years ago, and family run. As a family run business, Imperial Tea has acquired a very loyal community of fans and customers. True tea connoisseurs shop at Imperial Tea, in part for the premium quality they offer, but also to continue connecting with the founders that lead tea tasting sessions and education. The entire Imperial Tea experience is unique. While the majority of their sales have been generated by their tea house in San Francisco, they have been trying to expand their online stores sales.


When Imperial Tea reached out to us, they were looking for a team of marketers that truly understand the boutique nature of their business. Unlike mainstream tea companies, Imperial Tea’s social media content had to lead with education in order to continue offering the same quality of service to their existing audience, while growing their community of premium tea lovers.
