At the time Sparrow was an early stage business that was searching for the right product and business model for Product Market Fit. We had to come up with a way to grow the company.
Creating a series of different propositions and landing pages to run as a 'smoke test', we ran traffic to each one to measure how customers would respond to each proposition individually. Each page had to have customised copy written to highlight each product's unique value proposition.
My marketing campaigns drove equal amounts of traffic to each page to give each version a fair chance of performing. We tracked the amount of sign ups we received and whether people were willing to pay money for each proposition.

Vaughtons and parent company WH Darby’s are a 200 year old business operating in Birmingham’s (England) world famous jewellery quarter. Manufacturers of handmade insignia, specialising in products such as Jewels, Medals, Chains of Office, Lapel Badges, Cufflinks and much more. During their prod history they have made Olympic medals, the FA Cup, and have had commissions from several royal families.
In 2021 Vaughtons approach Delta with a challenge.
In recent years the business had diversified and created new revenue streams. This strategy had produced good results but also meant the business had lost focus and it’s brand identity had been diluted. Up against an increasingly competitive market, offering ever more specialised services and products Vaughtons understood that they need to evolve the business if they were to successfully see off the competition and build for the future.
The Challenge
Prior to working with Diogenes Solutions, the team at Gakken focused their efforts on Amazon Marketing with no Success usually just opting for automatic Amazon PPC campaigns that were costly and not profitable.
To position itself as a Top selling children’s book company, Gakken would have to prioritize targeted manual PPC campaigns. They would need to focus on ASIN targeting competitor products. Book targeting needs to be conservative in bidding and hyper targeted.
The Gakken team sought me out as the right person to take on the challenge.
The goal was to refine Gakkens PPC targeting with manual Selection, identify high-impact keywords, Categories and Products as well as display ads to fill topic gaps throughout the funnel, and ultimately, grow traffic and conversions.
