In April 2020, Birdie’s revenue was $1200.

initial sales came from friends/family network, but that was exhausted.

By Sept 2020, revenues had grown to near 7 figures in the month.

2/
👉 Build strategy around paid social.
👉 Learn FB Ads (binge content from Admission @CommnThreadCo)
👉 Improve Product Description Page - increase clarity, focus on CRO, make easier to purchase product.
👉 Start w/small daily FB budgets, scale up to $1300/day at 4x ROAS
3/
👉 Identify skill set limitations — find experts to scale out the campaigns, Homestead Studios/ @zachmstuck

👉 Build out and improve all email automations — onboarding, post-purchase, abandoned cart, etc
4/

👉 Prepare operationally - invest in inventory to prepare for increased demand. ie purchase of 40k units (4x the amount they’d sold up to that point 😨)

👉 Collect email addresses on LP’s for paid traffic (a missed opportunity that was not done prior)
5/

👉 Targeting the right audience for the product - similar products target a different audience w/different offer (ie personal alarm for bear attacks vs. sexual assaults)

👉 Diversify acquisition channels - 80% of ad spend is on FB. experiment w/Snap, TikTok, podcasts etc
6/

👉 Build media distribution channels and audience from outset…sets up for future initiatives, whether podcast, QVC, youtube, etc
