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.

This brand had horrible open and click rates. I was able to raise those metrics by executing best practices and sharing non-sales-based information that led to sales and good email engagement in just 2 months. 

Samsonite had a CRM database of customers but had not sent an email in over 6 months. They were looking for a fresh approach for its email marketing program to re-engage and nurture current and new customers. The challenge was to establish a new strategy and approach that would improve email open rates and click through rates to ultimately increase its ecommerce sales for its travel bags, luggage and accessories. 

This brand used CM commerce for their email communications. I reviewed their existing flows in CM and rebuilt their improved emails within Klaviyo.

The client didn't have a lot of confirmed assets so I was able to utilize resources from their site and reviews section.
