The challenge

Ellerman House is one of Cape Town's most prestigious hotels, and their email marketing needed to match that reputation. The problem was a small internal team with limited capacity to plan, design, and send campaigns regularly. Without that consistency, results had stayed flat for years.

The approach

  • Monthly planning sessions with Michellene to align on messaging and seasonal priorities
  • Consistent design and copy written to reflect the brand's luxury tone
  • Regular performance reviews, A/B testing, and honest two-way feedback on every send

The results

  • Open rate grew by 10%
  • Click rate nearly doubled over the course of the engagement
