Before Shawfire Media

Dr. Shiba had a solid email list, but their revenue had plateaued at 20% of total sales in 2023. Despite having creative ideas, they lacked the specialized expertise to unlock the full potential of email marketing. Their automated flows were unstructured, their emails lacked a cohesive brand identity, and they had become over-reliant on discounts to drive sales.

In just 60 days, Shawfire Media tackled three core challenges, transforming Dr. Shiba’s email marketing into a high-converting, revenue-driving machine. Now, their email channel consistently generates over 30% of total revenue, improving both profitability and customer engagement.

Unorganized Email Flows Leading to Lost Revenue

CHALLENGE #1

Unorganized Email Flows Leading to Lost Revenue

Dr. Shiba had a dozen automated email flows in place, but they were too broad, chaotic, and causing subscriber fatigue. Customers were receiving overlapping messages, leading to confusion, disengagement, and increased unsubscribe/spam complaint rates. There was no clear strategy, and as a result, their email performance was falling flat.

SHAWFIRE MEDIA’S SOLUTION

We knew that streamlining and restructuring the flows was key to unlocking revenue. Our deep audit allowed us to build a highly targeted system that delivered the right message to the right customer at the right time.

WHAT WE DID

01

Flow Segmentation

Divided the email list based on behavior, purchase history, and engagement levels.

02

Flow Prioritization

Reorganized key flows like welcome sequences, cart recovery, and post-purchase follow-ups to drive higher conversions.

03

Campaign Coordination

Eliminated overlap between automated flows and campaigns, ensuring a consistent and subscriber-friendly experience.

Results

  • Higher engagement rates
  • Lower unsubscribe and spam complaint rates
  • A streamlined, revenue-optimized email system

CHALLENGE #3

Over-Reliance on Discounts That Reduced Profitability

Dr. Shiba had trained their customers to expect discounts, leading to lower profit margins and delayed purchasing behavior—customers would wait for sales rather than buying at full price.

SHAWFIRE MEDIA’S SOLUTION

Instead of relying on price cuts, we built a strategy that emphasized product value, customer experience, and brand storytelling to drive sales at full price.
