We had to ensure the CAC was low enough to generate profit but that we scaled quickly enough to achieve growth projections for future funding rounds.

Goodfair is an online recycled clothing retailer focused on reversing the negative effects of consumerism. Unlike ThredUp or a normal thrift store, customers purchase "product categories or bundles" and are sent an eclectic mix of items adding a mystery element to the experience.

Challenges:

• Often sold out of in-demand product categories, making it hard to scale top-performing ads
• Didn't have a consistent stream of new content
• Always had an abundance of low-converting product categories that they wanted to push

Strategies:

• Immediately created evergreen ad content that converted well and was scalable since it wasn't tied to a specific product
• Worked with the client on an influencer outreach plan to build up their asset library—used this content to create eye-catching videos that focused on the styling of the products, while also highlighting Goodfair's mission
• Pitched the client on product-specific influencer outreach initiatives to get more creative (and hopefully higher converting) content featuring the products that were a tougher sell

My consulting work with the Human Of Color focused exclusively on social media management. The unique challenges I faced when working with this client had to do with content and engagement alignment between what the client desired vs. what I knew would work best given my knowledge of the social media algorithm.

Because of this challenge, I learned how to lean more into developing brand new strategies that served both the existing social media algorithm and what the client preferred in order to achieve  client satisfaction and social media growth simultaneously.

Develop a social media strategy and content to be taken forward.
