Hi! Ali here. Here's more about what I do & why I do it.
I create compelling marketing strategy that grows brands by balancing two things: the emotive storytelling that's necessary to create brand love, and effective trade tactics, necessary for sustainable growth and long term profitability.
Why love? Because brands that create emotional connections with their customers last longer in market, are more profitable, rely less on paid advertising, have happier employees, and just generally have more FUN.
How do you create brand love? By optimising the entire experience of your product in market and focusing on your brand. How it comes to life in your products, your marketing strategies, your storytelling and your channels.
I offer strategic consulting across 4 key experiences:
Your product, for example optimising your product page or analysing your data to understand your entry products for each customer persona.
Your marketing, including go-to-market campaigns, all channel strategies and launching into new markets.
Your storytelling, brand personality and tone of voice.
Your website, including major transformations like website builds, re-platforms and launching loyalty programs.
Over 10 years dedicated to launching and scaling fun, bold brands and products to Australian and US markets.
Career highlights:
Launching frank body into Target USA, Sephora Canada and Boots UK.
Expanding frank body's presence in the US and online.
Re-creating frank body's loyalty program Hotel Pink, which remains unchanged to this day.
Being part of the team that created the I.AM.GIA brand and launched it to market.
Re-building and re-branding Tiger Mist to enable it to scale in the US.
I'm a holistic marketer in the way I think and approach projects, and that's come from my career path. I started in eCommerce and moved into marketing, before running both departments globally for a skincare brand.
Being responsible for two key departments (eCommerce/digital, and marketing) being responsible for the entire customer journey globally, which almost ALWAYS means competing metrics, KPIs and budgets.
This very quickly forced me to become an expert in balancing (key word) both the highly technical and ever-changing field of eCommerce, with the creative and tactical field of marketing and storytelling. The end result? End to end marketing campaigns and growth strategies that maximised every channel involved, amplified results and squeezed that juice out of every dollar.
Great question. I'm not a:
Content creator
Social media marketer
Graphic or digital designer=
Full stack developer
eCommerce coordinators or day to day administrator
But when I need these experts for my projects and retainers, I'll call on my insanely talented network who I believe are the best in the biz.
