Problem:
Being a startup, many of Diggs' key brand touchpoints needed attention and were causing friction and frustration for prospective and existing customers.
Solution:
From packaging, product design to education, website optimization and early customer acquisition, I helped elevate Diggs from a Kickstarter brand to a category leader. I led Diggs' marketing for 3 years, going from being an individual contributor to building and leading marketing and customer service teams. I was very involved in product strategy, design and development as well, informing color, material and finish as well as form and function.
Results:
I helped create a brand and products customers raved about, leading to placement in Petco stores nationwide, a growing pet parent community and eventually a $13M Series A investment.
I was employee #2 at Diggs, serving as their head of marketing from 2019-2022. I helped elevate them from looking like a "As Seen On TV" brand, to a category leader in the pet supplies industry.
I refreshed their brand design, messaging, website, packaging and created key partnerships with pet influencers, dog trainers, vets and breeders.

During my time at Diggs, I spearheaded the creation of a new product color way that became the brand's runaway bestseller. I also was a key contributor to the development of products like Groov, Pillo, Passenger, treat spreads and their entire walk suite.
From naming, color/material/finish to features, customer research and go-to-market strategy – I helped Diggs go from a one-hit product to a one-stop shop for premium pet supplies.
