Scaling a Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) jewellery brand in a highly competitive e-commerce market is challenging. Despite having a stunning product range, many brands struggle with low conversion rates, inefficient ad spend, and inconsistent sales. This was the case for a jewelry brand that partnered with Purple Circle, a performance marketing agency specializing in D2C growth.
Within just 19 days, the brand achieved a 335% increase in gross sales, a 500% surge in orders, a 349% boost in conversion rate, and an impressive 5X Return on Ad Spend (ROAS). In this case study, we break down the data-driven strategies and marketing tactics that fueled this transformation.
Before working with Purple Circle, the brand was struggling with several key issues:
✅ Low Conversion Rate: While the website had steady traffic, very few visitors were converting into paying customers.
✅ Inefficient Ad Spend: Previous advertising campaigns had poor ROAS (Return on Ad Spend), leading to wasted budget.
✅ Inconsistent Sales: There were fluctuations in revenue, with no scalable strategy to ensure steady growth.
✅ Lack of Brand Awareness: In a crowded jewellery market, standing out was a major challenge.
Purple Circle took a holistic approach, leveraging performance marketing and conversion optimization to turn these weaknesses into strengths.
Instead of running generic ads, Purple Circle implemented highly targeted marketing campaigns aimed at engaging the most relevant customers.
📌 Lookalike Audiences: Using Shopify and Meta data, they built audience segments that closely resembled high-value customers.
📌 Retargeting Campaigns: Re-engaging visitors who abandoned carts or browsed products but didn’t complete a purchase.
📌 Interest & Behavioral Targeting: Targeting users with a strong interest in luxury jewellery, fashion, gifting, and high-end accessories.
By refining audience segmentation, the brand saw an increase in ad efficiency and a higher conversion rate.
Purple Circle focused on high-quality creatives and persuasive copywriting to maximize engagement and conversions.
🎯 Visual Storytelling: Designed elegant, high-resolution ad creatives that reflected the brand’s luxury positioning.
📝 Persuasive Copy: Crafted ad copy emphasizing the brand’s USPs (unique designs, handcrafted quality, and exclusivity).
🎥 Short-Form Video Ads: Leveraged Instagram Reels, TikTok, and Facebook video ads to boost engagement and retention.
By continuously A/B testing different creatives, they identified top-performing ads that drove the highest ROI.
To maximize returns, Purple Circle took a data-driven approach to ad spend:
📊 High-Performing Channels: The majority of the budget was allocated to Meta Ads (Facebook & Instagram) and Google Ads.
📈 Real-Time Budget Adjustments: Daily monitoring of campaign performance ensured funds were directed toward winning ads.
🔬 ROAS-Focused Testing: Testing different ad creatives, audience segments, and offers to identify the most profitable strategies.
This approach led to a significant reduction in Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) while achieving a 5X ROAS.
To complement the paid ads strategy, Purple Circle focused on optimizing the Shopify store for conversions.
🚀 Faster Load Speeds: Improved website performance to reduce bounce rates.
💳 Seamless Checkout Process: Simplified the checkout experience to minimize cart abandonment.
📲 Mobile Optimization: Ensured smooth mobile browsing, as the majority of customers shopped via smartphones.
🔎 Trust Signals: Integrated customer reviews, testimonials, and a hassle-free return policy to build trust.
Purple Circle leveraged Influencer Marketing and User-Generated Content (UGC) to amplify brand credibility.
👩🎤 Micro-Influencer Partnerships: Collaborated with niche influencers in the jewellery and fashion space to generate authentic content.
📸 UGC Ads: Encouraged customers to share real-life images wearing the jewellery, which was repurposed into ad creatives.
🎁 Exclusive Offers via Influencers: Provided unique discount codes to influencers, driving a surge in referral traffic.
This approach not only increased brand awareness but also enhanced consumer trust, leading to a higher purchase rate.

📌 Total Sales: ₹51,179.05 (+2.3K%)
