The Background

This UK-based clean beauty brand had the right product and mission — sustainably sourced, cruelty-free, with a growing base of loyal fans.

 

But the DTC performance didn’t match the potential. Messaging was diluted. Paid media was inefficient. And one-time buyers weren’t sticking.

“Ross’s strategies directly addressed our need for cost-effective growth, cutting our CPA while doubling sales. His focus on sustainable branding was key to our improved market performance.”

The challenge

The brand came to us with a clear mission  but unclear structure. Their challenges:

  • Communicating sustainability in a way that converted

  • Rising CPAs with no retention strategy

  • Low subscription adoption

  • Underleveraged influencer credibility

  • A website that didn’t support serious scale

The strategy

Build a high-trust, high-performance growth system.

We mapped out a full-funnel approach focused on:
→ Brand narrative clarity
→ Conversion optimisation
→ Scalable, sustainable acquisition

PHASE 1: CRO & SITE EXPERIENCE

  • Cleaned up navigation and product hierarchy

  • Focused PDP messaging on values + results

  • Highlighted sustainability without greenwashing

  • Introduced tiered subscription options with strong incentives

 

Best Practice: Subscriptions work better when they’re framed as a benefit  not just a convenience.

PHASE 2: PAID MEDIA & TRAFFIC STRATEGY

  • Consolidated campaigns and introduced funnel segmentation

  • Built creative tailored to each stage: awareness, consideration, conversion

  • Launched retargeting to re-engage non-subscribers

  • Dropped CPA by 40% without sacrificing volume

  •  

Best Practice: Beauty ad fatigue is real, rotating new creatives weekly kept performance strong.

PHASE 3: INFLUENCER & CONTENT STRATEGY

  • Partnered with niche, values-aligned creators

  • Co-created content to build trust (not just reach)

  • Leveraged influencer traffic to high-converting landing pages

  • 30% increase in referral traffic and better engagement

 

Best Practice: Authenticity wins in beauty, we briefed creators like they were part of the team.
