Determining the exact brand aesthetic, voice, and content cadence often takes some trial and error with clients. Generally, the sooner we can establish a workflow/rhythm with content conceptualization, creation, review, and revisions, the better the results.

Being a writer, I love exploring a lot of industries and one such industry is politics. In I-PAC (Indian Political Action Committee), we do digital and offline campaigns wherein I belonged to the Digital sector. I-PAC works out strategies and campaigns plans for DMK which is one of the most influential parties in India. It almost resembles the 'media' industry, in which, the work should be instantly submitted and should get ready to received work at any instance. Sometimes, working on Sundays was quite difficult but once I learnt the strategy, it became one of my favourite roles. I was given the role of managing the campaign - Vidiyalai Nokki Stalinin Kural (The voice of Stalin) and the campaign took place for 75 days. Stalin, the president of DMK, is the one who represents the DMK party and leads it. The leaders of DMK were campaigning for their party, and I made sure to cover them all digitally.

Bellissimo is one of our flagship clients as we like mutually like to say : we scaled together.

Their online store capped sales as their only traffic source was Facebook advertising for a sustainably long time. When we started working with Bellissimo in 2020, our team set up their email marketing infrastructure. Over the last 2 years we have expanded our ecosystem to include: Influencer Marketing (now collaborating with celebrities like Snoop Dogg, Steve Aoki, Floyd Mayweather and Jamie Foxx), text marketing, social media marketing, and a website revamp complete with hat customization tool.

Bellissimo now sees sustainable increase month over month. This year Bellissimo is seeing 160% more revenue than last year. 

Key achievements: 

• Influencer marketing strategy and partnerships facilitated in the fashion, sports and entertainment industry: Steve Aoki, Floyd Mayweather, Snoop Dogg Jamie Foxx, Mr. Mature

• 0 to 150k organic monthly impressions on Pinterest within 6 months

• 26k engaged Instagram followers

• created a targeted fan group and grew it to 1k members in one month, now at 3k members; the results have been overwhelming: group members share great content (ie. wearing the brand's products), this "feeding us content" which in return is bringing continuous growth; we also started to monetize the group and gain direct Shopify sales from group members

• Created an automated way to receive customer tags, photos and videos. Now, about 50% of our content is generated by other users which means we get extra reach and impressions without added effort.

The customer's main challenge was not being able to deliver a profitable ROAS on Facebook and Instagram, despite their core audiences being present there, especially on Instagram. There was a lot of engagement that did not result in sales.

Their ROAS was stuck at around 50% (0.5 : 1).

Of note, the Northern Hemisphere was heading into spring, which is their busiest time, with 90% of their sales coming from the US, Europe and the Middle East, so it was important to see results very quickly.
