Phone accessory brand Casely was running various outreach marketing programs, but they were fragmented - managed by different tools and people. Brandbassador's team was able to bring everything together and help Casely clarify and achieve their goals, significantly reducing the time spent managing their outreach marketing while increasing engagement and revenue.
Casely was spending too much time manually reaching out to ambassadors on Instagram to invite them to participate in their loyalty program. Two dedicated staff members were committing at least 5 hours a day to coordinate their ambassador program and they were not seeing the desired results given the sheer amount of time they were investing in ambassador marketing. They were looking for a few key objectives when searching for a solution where they could build and maintain their growing Casely community.
Through our hands-on, premium onboarding program we have helped Casely understand and clarify the outcomes they need to see in order to deem their ambassador program a success. Early on we helped them define their objectives and identify an ambassador program strategy that would work for their size, nature and target market.
As with every client, the Customer Success team provided a walk through of the features that would provide them with the shortest route to value, encouraging a thought process around their engagement strategy and how it should be communicated to ambassadors via the program.
Unlike self serving platforms, the Brandbassador Customer Success team has built internal KPIs that tie their own career success with the success of a brand’s performance, therefore they are always extremely motivated to curate a successful Ambassador marketing strategy that helps the brand achieve their desired outcomes. With an ambitious product team, the platform is constantly evolving with the most effective features being added on a weekly basis to help the brand boost sales, engagement and performance.
Since joining Brandbassador in 2019, Casely has found that through missions on our app, their ambassador’s engagement rates are significantly higher when compared to their previous system and their organic outreach has also improved. They are able to drive sales through links and discount codes with transparent and real-time tracking.
Together with one of our dedicated Customer Success Managers, Casely has managed to build a fun, engaging community for their customers, followers and fans. Their one-to-many strategy has naturally resulted in time savings as they no longer have to spend time manually communicating with their audience, now everything is centralised and automated.
They love how everything is now under one roof which decreases the time spent on tracking and reporting their communities performance. In addition, they enjoy how quick and easy it is to train new employees to use the system. Their positive ROI plus continuous strategising and education throughout their entire journey has meant the partnership continues to go from strength to strength.

The biggest impact is the [1] engagement (i.e. the ambassador’s engagement with the app), usually after we post a mission, within a minute or 2, we receive immediate engagement from hundreds of the ambassadors. Before, we would do a series of email blasts and manual reach out and hope people would see and respond to our messages. [2] Another thing is the social buzz generated through Brandbassador has really helped us to improve the brand authority, which leads to [3] the most important impact - that we are getting a much higher conversion rate now - previously we were getting a 0.5% conversion rate, now it is over a 4% conversion rate.
We used to spend 4-5 hours a day trying to recruit & manage influencers and ambassadors, and now we spend about 45 mins a day, as the programme is mostly automated, everything is under one place and it runs by itself.
