case study

the goal

comprehensive. long-lasting.

Founded in 2017, Curlsmith create products for curly hair. The Ecrubox team were brought in to drive an increase in online sales by working closely with its founders and internal marketing team from March 2021 to April 2022 on a digital growth strategy.

Ecrubox designed and built a new website to optimise the site’s conversation rate alongside a user experience programme and integrated performance marketing support to target its core target market.

The team created Curlsmith’s first TikTok ads, plus a Facebook and Instagram advertising strategy. This helped to turbo charged Curlsmith’s launch in Germany. The result? Exponential growth. Ecrubox recently celebrated with the client when Curlsmith was bought for $150million.

the method

ambitious. assertive. authentic.

Heather Horton, CEO of Ecrubox says; “We’re known for breaking the rule book to help support company growth for our clients, but this project was off-the-scale. We are thrilled Curlsmith has become part of Helen of Troy’s portfolio. It’s an exciting time for the company as we know even more people will fall in love with it.”
