Projects

Growing Season Media

My Substack publication sharing in-depth conversations with innovators, entrepreneurs, and creatives. Read about founders seeking to shape the cannabis industry and disruptors in technology finding new, innovator ways to use AI for the greater good.See More

Consumer-Led Product Innovation

A national ice cream brand wanted to expand their flavor line, guided by consumer insights, cultural trends, and size-of-prize at retail. I conducted a quantitative survey of leading-edge consumers in addition to in-depth interviews of high-frequency ice cream consumers across the United States. Combined with national sales scanner data, I helped the client identify whitespace for product development in the ice cream category, and recommended flavor-driven SKUs for further development and test marketing.See More

Content & Digital Growth Strategy

A Detroit-based cannabis company with a CBD topicals and a publishing business sought a strategy to strengthen brand position and fuel growth for both parts of the business. Because both business units required repositioning to work in harmony, I conducted a quantitative study of cannabis consumers to test brand messaging and crafted a clear, refined brand identity. With new brand positioning in place, I recommended a columnist-driven content strategy to replace the ad-hoc publishing model the brand used at the time. The client accepted my recommendation, and I hired five columnists to address market-tested verticals across beauty, sex, cannabis education, and pop culture. Site visitation climbed 2X month-over-month for the three months following strategic implementation. A/B social advertising testing to promote the repositioned topicals business drove down cross-channel CAC by 60% in addition to email driving signups.See More

StoryDeskApr 2020 - Dec 2020 • 9 mosStoryDesk provided web-based project management and editorial tools to college newsrooms and communications teams on a SaaS model. I developed and launched StoryDesk at the beginning of the COVID pandemic, integrating design best practices and insights from user feedback. With a small team, I deployed, tested, and targeted email marketing campaigns to drive our growth and raised seed funding commitments on a $500K valuation. The product-market fit we achieved with newsrooms around the country did not translate to the post-COVID world, and StoryDesk shut down in 2021.
