The brand was struggling to improve the ROAS of their online store above 300%, after getting a taste of 800 - 900% during the pandemic, when people being stuck at home all day every day was beneficial to a brand like theirs. The brand was already familiar to consumers who were used to seeing it at stores like Harvey Norman and Kmart, but now could no longer shop at those stores. Another challenge was not being able to offer discounts on their products deeper than the stockist retailer were offering.

The target ROAS was 500 - 600%. The channels they were using were Facebook/Instagram Ads and Google Ads.  Facebook was an area of concern as they did not see consistent returns there, although the channel very well during lockdowns.

The brand was struggling to acquire new customers and had no strategy with their paid media. I was able to create a strategy from scratch and eventually get them from breaking even to being profitable with their paid campaigns.

Patch is a UK-based ecommerce website that sells indoor and outdoor plants, plants pots and many plant care accessories.

The online plant market was growing quickly and competitors were sprouting up everywhere. We were spending a tidy sum on marketing but our conversion rate could have been better. I spotted an opportunity to target a significant segment of our customers who were new to indoor plants. The challenge was that plant newbies were afraid of killing their plants because they didn't know how to look after them.

The challenge for this project was that the client has never ran any ads on social and had no prior data to leverage. The client also didn't know if there was a market for his product on social.
