I was approached to create a new DTC brand for the worlds oldest thread manufacturing company
Founded in Mulhouse, France in 1746—the DMC Corporation is the largest and oldest thread manufacturing company in the world. The corporation saw an opportunity to increase market share and sales by investing in a separate digital ecommerce team. The CEO hired me to create, launch, and manage this new business.
I created the DTC brand including all the new creatives. I lead the website launch project on the Magento Enterprise platform, hired the ecommerce team and developed a merchandising and sales program.
I ran the brand growth and strategy including the digital marketing, paid media efforts, and implemented a successful influencer program. I was responsible for the business P&L, as well as the marketing and operational initiatives.
