LAKE Pajamas Social Strategy and Management
The Challenge
LAKE Pajamas was founded in 2014 as an e-commerce retailer, specializing in sleepwear and loungewear. Since then, they have opened two brick-and-mortar locations, however their primary channel is e-commerce.
LAKE approached us at the end of 2019 with the goal of enhancing their digital marketing – specifically their social media marketing on Facebook and Instagram. Normally, this would be challenge enough, but in 2020 this had to be achieved in the face of a global pandemic and economic recession as well.
Our Solution
Our work focused on three core business objectives: grow net new customers, grow and engage LAKE’s social media community, and increase customer loyalty.
We achieved these goals through a data-focused approach that identified who our top performing customers were and established campaigns that targeted similar customer profiles.
Campaigns were closely monitored and optimized through a real-time dashboard that tracked site analytics, sales, and key campaign metrics such as reach and frequency, cost per purchase, and return on ad spend (ROAS).
Mother's Day Campaign
For Mother's Day, we celebrated Mom's wisdom—her sixth sense for knowing what’s best and what truly matters. Our ads played up the idea that giving LAKE was the ultimate appreciation of everything she taught you, and she was sure to be proud that you were paying attention after all.
Instagram and Facebook Ads and Posts
Our social ads and posts featured catalog lifestyle photography paired with post copy celebrating Mom's wisdom.
Emails
We sent out 2 Mother's Day emails: A brand-focused email, which featured the owners' sentimental stories about their own Moms' wisdom, and a more straightforward product-focused email.
Instagram and Facebook Stories
Our Mother's Day Story Ads featured an interactive poll, as well a video story with overlaid type treatment.
