Wholesale Candle Brand Case Study

Hive & Honey case study slide 1
"If you have any doubts on whether to make the leap, take it from a person who was very hesitant at first, and invest in Micayla. Definitely do it. She has both the creative and organizational skills to take your business to the next level. Within just a few days, she was able to create my ideas and vision and develop a cohesive look for our brand. Even better than what I originally had in mind. I was nervous that this would be an added expense, but it's actually an investment, and you will see an increase in your sales adding Micayla to your team. you will not be disappointed."

Email Marketing

NEWSLETTER Before and After

The Problem

Newsletters were sent infrequently and felt purely promotional. They didn't nurture loyalty or move wholesale buyers to act.

What We Did

Split the list into two tracks, one for product updates and offers, one for educational value-driven content for candle makers.

The End Results

Open rates climbed above 50% with 2–5% CTR. Subscribers now save, share, and reply to the emails.

Newsletter campaign performance, open and click-through rates

The Numbers

A newsletter that finally performs.

Campaign data showing open rates steadily hitting above 50% with click-through rates between 2–5% across both newsletter tracks.

Subscriber response, engaging again with the brand

Why It Works

Emails people keep.

Subscribers save the emails, forward them, and reply asking for the next one. The newsletter has evolved from a simple sales channel into a trusted brand touchpoint, building loyalty and driving repeat purchases.

"It was officially my highest earning launch EVER and also a 5-figure launch. I could not have done it without your support on the social media end! There were a few folks who joined who weren't on my email list previously, which I am assuming means they came to me directly via social media."

"Working with Micayla and her team has been one of the best decisions I've made for my business. They are truly the best of the best. From the very beginning, they completely understood my vision and brought it to life in ways I couldn't have imagined. They took the reins and ran everything seamlessly, allowing me to focus on my brides and the day-to-day of my salon without worrying about the backend. Everything has been effortless on my end because they handled every detail with such professionalism and care. Most importantly, I trust them fully. I know I'm in good hands, and that peace of mind is priceless."
