Case Study
How we helped build a brand from startup and under $1 million in annual revenue to over $30 million in annual revenue and a $300 million publicly traded company
Where We Began
Elixinol was selling 1 retail product and had a team of less than 5 people. The website and messaging was very tactical, only selling the retail product and offering bulk oil sales with less than $1 million in annual revenue. With a highly competitive market landscape and many new companies jumping into the industry, it was difficult to identify how to create a clear advantage in the market. The goal was to create one of the most dominant and respected brands in the Hemp/CBD industry.
Our Approach
Learn about the team, business model and the vision of the company

Discover And Told The Story About
The Founders And The
Leadership Team
We then went into a creative process to tell the story of Elixinol. We identified that one of their founders had been deeply involved in the Hemp industry since the early 1990s, far longer than any founders of other competitive brands and had a tremendous passion for the environment and sustainability. The other founders also had great experience in the healthcare industry and we created messaging that shared this story to connect with people in a powerful way.

Create A Business Philosophy Based On Values

Creating a powerful culture that inspires leaders to join your cause is an integral part of creating a successful brand and we developed Elixinol’s 7 Pillars of Success which was designed to share with channel partners, distributors, wholesalers, potential employees and the entire supply chain so they could see and then experience first hand the core values, culture and business philosophy that was far more than just another company in the industry.
