We were growing our following but still weren't seeing the revenue we expected. That’s when we reached out to Tuple Strategy.
Step 1: Strategic Audit — The Foundation of Success
The Problem:
The brand lacked clear positioning and didn’t understand their target audience well. Without a strong brand message, they struggled to stand out in a crowded market.
Tuple Strategy’s Audit:
We conducted a comprehensive audit of the brand’s marketing efforts, identifying gaps in both their messaging and targeting. From there, we recommended a full repositioning around the idea of “Healing Gemstones for a Balanced Life,” appealing to women aged 25-45 who were interested in self-care, spirituality, yoga, and meditation.
This new direction allowed the brand to resonate with a more defined, engaged audience seeking emotional and spiritual well-being.

These ambassadors helped the brand continuously showcase its products, fostering a relationship with their audience that led to more sales and higher brand loyalty.
