About

From ads to email to social to CRO and beyond, I help brands build the systems that support profitable growth. My philosophy is one that centres the customer: combining qualitative and quantitative research to find messaging that converts. I’m omni-channel, data-obsessed, a player-coach, and available for freelance work.

Case studies

Ceremonia hair quiz
+18%

Average order value, Ceremonia

The challenge at Ceremonia was to lift average order value beyond the cost of a single shampoo. We achieved an 18% increase by restrategising around the entire customer journey: pushing traffic to a brand new ‘hair quiz’ and promoting higher-priced products through an email flow. I also worked with the Logistics team to create the Post-Partum Hair Kit after customer research revealed an under-served niche. The high-priced kit became a top seller, with our best-performing ad and landing page, and a big hit with affiliate partners.

The Class landing page
+24%

Conversion rate, The Class

The Class landing page spoke to everyone and converted no one. I repositioned the messaging away from a generic fitness app and towards a specific audience: people who wanted to take their therapy further. Narrowing who the page addressed lifted conversion on its own. Adding social proof and celebrity testimonials after structured split testing took it to a 24% increase.
