Case Study:

Ella+Mila

How we increased ROAS by 72% in 90 days

Historically, Ella+Mila's advertising efforts were anchored in UGC photography, which limited their reach and impact. Initial ventures into video content had fallen short of expectations, leaving potential untapped. We began testing, experimenting with various content formats, hooks, and calls-to-action (CTAs) on a monthly rotation. Our data-driven approach enabled us to identify precisely which elements resonated with audiences, Driving Sales and dramatically increasing Shares and Saves.

What we learned from testing:

Fresh Creative Unlocked New Audiences

Our collaboration marked a turning point for Ella+Mila. Before our intervention, their products predominantly appealed to an older demographic, with most sales coming from the 65+ audience segment. Through our targeted content strategy and optimization efforts, we successfully unlocked new, younger audiences, diversifying their market reach and amplifying their brand visibility across social media platforms.

Product Hooks Had Higher Conversion Rates

Our testing revealed a pivotal insight for Ella+Mila's advertising strategy: starting ads with a clear product showcase significantly boosts conversion rates. This approach taps into consumer interest from the first frame, leveraging the visual appeal of Ella+Mila's nail polish to drive immediate engagement and encourage purchases. This key takeaway underscores the power of product-focused visuals in enhancing ad effectiveness and optimizing online sales.
