The Ride it Forward Program was an annual campaign created in honor of National Bike Month to reinforce our company mission by putting bikes in the hands of those who need them. The campaign asked community members to donate used bikes for a discount on a new GenZe e-Bike. The donated bikes were then given to community bike shops in Oakland, CA, and Portland, OR, refurbished, and given to community members in need. I strategically developed and managed a multi-channel marketing campaign whose efforts included, - Email marketing - Organic and paid social media posting - Paid Google ads - Built and monitored the Nearly New sales and updated product pages accordingly - Blogging - Managed internal sales and warehouse teams and an external creative agency - Close collaboration with an external PR firm These efforts resulted in, - Recognition from the Mayor of Oakland for contributing to the community - Mayors from four California counties rode GenZe e-- Bikes during Bike to Work Week media events to raise awareness of our campaign - Generated revenue of over $80,000 - 100 bikes donated to community bike shops to be distributed to community members in need See More
