From $543 to $16,103: How We Boosted Email Revenue by 2,865% in Just 3 Months
Why This Transformation Took 3 Months (Instead of 7–10 Days)
Typically, our clients see email & SMS revenue growth within 7–10 days, but this brand had zero email marketing foundation before working with us. We needed to take a careful, strategic approach to ensure:
Inbox Placement
Every email had to land in Primary while avoiding spam and promotions to build initial trust.
Healthy Engagement Metrics
We ramped send volume gradually to preserve high open & click rates instead of burning the list.
List Conditioning
Subscribers weren’t used to consistent email. We trained behavior with value-first, expectation-setting flows.
Deliverability Optimization
Domain / warming, segmentation & cadence control to build a durable sender reputation for scale.
This wasn't just a quick fix—we built a highly scalable email marketing system that could drive consistent, predictable revenue for the long run.
Client Background & Challenge
Before working with us, Alaska Glacial was struggling to generate consistent revenue from email marketing. Their previous email strategy was severely underperforming, contributing to just $543 in attributed revenue (only 12.58% of total sales).
Low open rates: Emails weren’t reaching or engaging customers.
Poor revenue contribution: Email barely moved the needle.
No effective campaigns: No storytelling, no value-packed content, no community-building sequences to build loyalty.
Underutilized automation: Flows existed but weren’t optimized for conversions.
They needed a complete email marketing overhaul to turn email into a revenue machine while also keeping customers engaged and loyal.
Before Campaign Statistics
These were the core performance metrics before we rebuilt Alaska Glacial's email marketing engine. They reveal low intent, minimal click engagement, and almost no direct revenue per send.

The Strategy: What We Did
We didn’t just “send more emails.” We engineered an owned-revenue system—data‑driven segmentation, automation depth, creative testing, and deliverability discipline—to turn a stagnant list into a profit center.
Takeaway: Email is Now a Sales & Brand Loyalty Powerhouse
With a strategic mix of targeted segmentation, automation, and engaging campaigns, email now drives 62% of total revenue — a 4× increase from before. The list is healthier, engagement compounds, and every send moves retention and lifetime value forward.
