Project Description

A new LGBTQ+ dating app needed help building up a social community and engaging that user-base. They turned to the team at Yellow Box to plan strategy, design assets, and implement a plan for sustainable growth.With a social strategy focused on building a community and converting that community into users, we increased net followers by 35%, grew engagement over 9x, and increased downloads from social by 44% within three months.Given the nature of the dating app space, it’s important to build trust with your audience. Unlike other channels used (like app store ads) to increase downloads, our work on their social channels allowed them to build trust, validate new feature ideas, and create a feedback loop – all while still increasing their users and even ending up on BuzzFeed.

Within the first year, they were able to scale to nearly $2 million in DTC revenue, with an overall ROAS of $12.00+.

We maintained open rates over 55%, and generated nearly 20 new deals totaling over $3 million in revenue.With most markets, prospects are relatively finite. This places an emphasis on re-engaging and building a relationship with all prospects, even those that don’t initially purchase. This builds brand loyalty, shortens the sales cycle, and creates a more sustainable sales funnel.
