  • 4 min read

219K+ views, 34K+ sessions, and $11K+ in tracked revenue from digital marketing.”


Tools & Platforms:

Shopify, Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, Canva, Google Analytics, Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook


I was hired into a social-media-focused role and quickly expanded it into full digital marketing ownership across content, paid media, SEO, Shopify management, email marketing, event promotion, and analytics.


Over a little more than a year, that work helped drive major audience growth, stronger website traffic, improved social referral performance, measurable campaign results, and documented sales influence.


Key Results

  • 219K+ Instagram views, 131K reach, and 1.1K link clicks

  • 227K+ Facebook views and 454 link clicks

  • 34,000+ website sessions and 28,000+ online store visitors

  • Social referrals increased significantly across Instagram and Facebook

  • $11,880+ in directly attributable revenue from digital marketing efforts (bought via social media post)


The Challenge

The challenge was to help a luxury retail brand show up consistently across platforms while supporting both brand storytelling and conversion-focused marketing.


Most campaigns were executed within 2–4 week timelines while managing multiple overlapping deliverables.

This meant balancing:

  • Weekly content creation

  • Campaign launches and promotions

  • Email marketing

  • Website updates and SEO

  • Event marketing and in-store support

All within a fast-paced retail environment with overlapping priorities.


Overview  

At Hauser’s Jewelers, my role quickly grew beyond social posting into a broader digital marketing function. I worked across content strategy, short-form video, copywriting, seasonal campaigns, paid promotion, email support, event marketing, SEO, Shopify updates, and analytics reporting.


The result was a more connected digital presence, one that not only improved brand activity on social but also drove more people into the website funnel and supported real business outcomes.

My Role

My role expanded far beyond social media execution. I managed:

  • Campaign strategy and planning

  • Content creation (photo + video) across two locations

  • Posting across Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and TikTok

  • Customer engagement and community management

  • Weekly email campaigns

  • SEO improvements and product optimization

  • Shopify website updates and performance tracking

  • Event promotion and content capture

Over time, this evolved into a full digital marketing role combining creative, technical, and analytical work.


Approach  

I approached this as a full-funnel marketing system, not isolated posts.

  • Content → build awareness and engagement

  • Paid media → extend reach and drive traffic

  • SEO + Shopify → strengthen discoverability and conversion

  • Campaign strategy → connect messaging across all channels

This created consistency across social, website, email, and in-store experiences.


Results  


Social Media Growth

Over one year:

  • Instagram reach increased +484.9%

  • Link clicks increased +8,200%

  • Profile visits increased significantly

  • Facebook link clicks increased +360%

Content shifted from simple posting to value-driven storytelling, including:

  • Engagement and customer stories

  • Product education

  • Event-driven content

  • Behind-the-scenes and process-based content

Over the one-year comparison period, Instagram reached 219.5K views, 131K reach, and 1.1K link clicks, with reach up 484.9% and link clicks up 8.2K%.


Facebook

E-commerce analytics showing growth in sessions and online store visitors

Facebook reached 227.4K views and 454 link clicks, with link clicks up by more than 360%.


I began filming and posting content that provided value to the customers. Some of that value was from sharing engagement stories, custom jewelry processes, or upcoming events and trends.

Shopify Website Management

In July 2025, I took ownership of the Shopify website and expanded it into a more cohesive, high-performing digital platform. I led SEO improvements, built new pages, refreshed photography, launched event landing pages, and supported weekly e-blasts, while maintaining overall site performance and brand consistency.

Beyond updates, I managed the full website ecosystem, overseeing site architecture, content changes, and ongoing improvements across all web properties.


I collaborated closely with my boss to align design and messaging with campaign initiatives, ensuring a consistent brand experience across web and social.

E-commerce analytics showing growth in sessions and online store visitors

I maintained monthly inventory updates by sourcing vendor imagery and writing optimized product descriptions, while also improving site SEO, mobile responsiveness, accessibility, and overall user experience. I monitored performance metrics, implemented analytics tracking, and used insights to guide optimizations.

Additionally, I managed integrations across Shopify, email marketing, and third-party platforms, while ensuring site reliability, security, and functionality.


This role required both creative and technical execution, balancing storytelling, performance, and operational upkeep to support marketing campaigns and in-store sales.


The conversion funnel also improved, with 86 add-to-cart events, 59 reached checkouts, and 5 completed checkouts, while social referral sessions increased to 812 from Instagram and 797 from Facebook.



Business-Impact: Direct Revenue Via Digital Marketing

Direct Revenue = Instagram sale, customer said, “I saw this on social media and would like to buy it.”


The most important part of the story is that the work did not stop at visibility. The revenue side of this work is what matters most to me, because it answers the biggest question behind any marketing effort: what did this actually do for the business?


Based on my tracking and customer notes from the company's salespeople, I was able to document at least $11,880 in directly attributable revenue tied to Instagram content and SEO/product page improvements.


This includes a same-day Instagram-driven handbag and bracelet purchase ($1,470), a same-day necklace sale from an Instagram reel($6,930), a social-post-driven estate jewelry sale from another Instagram reel ($2,500), and additional Shopify conversions from Google/organic traffic ($600 and $380) after revamping website SEO.


Beyond those direct conversions, there were also strong campaign-level results. The Valentine’s bracelet campaign sold 8 out of 10 featured pieces at roughly a $390–$395 price point, and a local event activation grew from 1 ticket sold the previous year to 14 tickets and $350 in revenue.


I view this as documented revenue + additional impact that isn’t fully trackable but clearly influenced by digital marketing efforts.


What This Demonstrates

This work reflects:

  • Full-funnel digital marketing execution

  • Ability to manage multiple campaigns under tight timelines

  • Strong brand voice across platforms

  • Cross-functional collaboration with in-store teams

  • Data-driven decision making tied to business outcomes


This case study demonstrates platform fluency across major social channels, the ability to manage overlapping campaigns and deliverables in a fast-moving retail environment, strong verbal and written brand communication, cross-functional collaboration, and the ability to connect creative storytelling with performance data. Publicly, that positions me best as a story-led digital marketer with hands-on experience in paid media, content strategy, email support, website management, SEO, event promotion, and analytics.
