Selected Case Studies

How I build the systems behind customer acquisition, conversion, and growth.

A closer look at projects where I designed marketing operations, customer journeys, automation workflows, and growth systems across real businesses.

Overview

Three examples of how I think and build.

Case Study 01

Building the marketing operations system behind a high-volume customer acquisition engine.


LuxLav is a $4M+ manufacturer generating hundreds of inbound inquiries each month. My work focuses on turning that demand into a more structured, segmented, and scalable customer acquisition process.

$4M+Annual revenue
475+Average inbound inquiries per month
6,000+Existing contacts in CRM
3Sales reps supported
7-60Day typical sales cycle

The problem

LuxLav had strong inbound demand, but lead quality, buyer intent, timeline, product interest, and follow-up priority were not structured and utilized inside the CRM.

The strategy

I designed a system around lead qualification, buyer segmentation, lifecycle stages, HubSpot properties, automated workflows, nurture email campaigns, and specific dashboards.

Why it matters

The goal is to help the sales team quickly identify the highest-priority opportunities while creating better follow-up systems for warm, long-term, support, and referral relationships.

Case Study 02

Built a digital lead generation engine in a competitive real estate niche.


Rockstar Homes had no website, no paid acquisition, and no reliable digital lead source. I built the full acquisition system from the ground up.

#1Rankings for high-intent local terms

The problem

The business needed a new digital acquisition channel in a difficult niche where search visibility is competitive and paid budgets can be wasted quickly.

The strategy

I built a focused acquisition system around local search architecture, seller-focused copy, technical SEO, Google Ads, conversion forms, and landing page optimization.

Why it worked

The strategy worked because SEO, paid search, messaging, and conversion design supported each other instead of functioning as disconnected tactics.

Case Study 03

Built a premium wellness business from concept to automated execution.


With Wellness began as a market opportunity: create a private, self-service wellness experience in Fayetteville with minimal manual operational burden.

#6.1Average position for “cold plunge fayetteville”

The opportunity

Wellness demand was growing, but Fayetteville lacked a direct private sauna, cold plunge, and recovery experience designed around convenience and affordability.

What I built

I created the brand, pricing, website, copy, booking flow, automation systems, customer journey, physical layout, and operational structure.

The challenge

The hardest problem was making a physical, self-service experience feel reliable, premium, and clear without constant staff oversight.
