About the Project

A brand ready to grow — without the right engine.

NodPod is a pioneer in weighted sleep masks, offering a unique product that genuinely improves sleep quality for thousands of customers. When they came to Evolve, they had a loyal customer base and a compelling product — but their digital marketing was fragmented, their ad spend was inefficient, and their organic visibility was nearly invisible.

Our mandate was clear: build a scalable, data-driven growth infrastructure that would let NodPod compete in an increasingly crowded wellness market — and dominate their core keywords before competitors caught up.

Over 12 months, we rebuilt their paid advertising architecture, launched a full SEO campaign, and deployed automated email retention flows that turned one-time buyers into repeat customers.

Our Approach

Three pillars.
One system.

01
Paid Acquisition Rebuild
We audited and restructured NodPod's entire Google and Meta advertising setup — eliminating wasted spend, tightening audience targeting, and building full-funnel campaign architecture that moved customers from awareness to purchase with dramatically lower CPAs.
02
Organic Growth & SEO
We identified 40+ high-intent keywords with attainable ranking opportunities, produced supporting content, built a technical SEO foundation, and earned authoritative backlinks — landing NodPod on Page 1 for their most critical search terms within 8 months.
03
Email Retention Engine
We designed and deployed a suite of behavioral email flows — welcome series, post-purchase sequences, win-back campaigns, and VIP loyalty tiers — triggered by real user actions. The result: a 56% lift in customer lifetime value and a new revenue channel that runs on autopilot.
