The Story
TexTale is a premium men’s essential wear brand focused on functional, stylish, and sustainable wardrobe staples.
The Challenge
Despite experiencing healthy sales volumes in 2023, the brand faced profitability challenges. These issues were rooted not only in inefficient paid media strategies and overlapping promotions but also in pricing strategies that didn’t align with the premium quality of their products. While TexTale had strong capabilities across ecommerce, creative, and marketing, these departments operated in silos, limiting holistic growth.
Recognizing the need for integrated collaboration, TexTale engaged Chronos Agency for an 8-week pilot program in July 2024, which evolved into a full retainer partnership.
What We Did
Chronos delivered a comprehensive, end-to-end growth strategy beyond paid media, focusing on three key areas:
- Ecommerce Strategy: Optimized pricing models in alignment with COGS, developed promotion planning frameworks, and provided commercial guidelines to enhance profitability and revenue growth.
- Content & Creative Optimization: Delivered content strategies, including video guidelines, copywriting, creative design enhancements, and website UI/UX improvements to strengthen brand consistency and engagement.
- Paid Media Management: Provided full-service paid media support for Meta and Google PMax, covering strategy, execution, A/B testing, and performance reporting, ensuring data-driven decision-making across campaigns.
The Results
Chronos’ strategic interventions led to significant improvements across TexTale’s paid media channels:
- Enhanced Financial Performance: Shifted from previous profitability challenges to achieving positive net margins in H2 2024 through strategic pricing, optimized ad spend, and improved operational efficiencies.
- Efficient Budget Utilization: Delivered strong performance with a 32% reduction in ad spend year-over-year while maintaining sales volumes.
- ROAS Growth: Achieved a 21.1% increase in ROAS on Meta with Chronos campaigns and a 59% higher ROAS for Google PMax compared to non-Chronos campaigns.
- Higher Average Order Value (AOV): Increased AOV by 31.5% on Meta and 22.8% on Google PMax through targeted upselling and product categorization.
- Optimized CPA: Reduced CPA for Google PMax by 21%, reflecting efficient budget allocation and precise targeting.
