Background: Puvi, a home-grown cold-pressed oil brand from Coimbatore, was initially started by V. Rajesh, a farmer by background, as an endeavor of love. The brand has its roots in the genuine love for natural, farm-fresh products. Initially, Rajesh made oils primarily for self-consumption and distributing amongst close friends and family. Taking a chance, he decided to introduce it on Amazon, but without significant strategic planning, growth had been sluggish, reaching a modest increase over two years.

Challenges:

• Limited brand visibility: Despite the product's exceptional quality, Puvi wasn't recognized on a broader scale. Its growth trajectory on Amazon was slow, capping after a mere two-year span.
• Old-school branding: The packaging, product visuals on Amazon, and overall branding aesthetic were outdated, failing to appeal to the younger and more digitally savvy consumers.
• Non-existent social media presence: This hampered direct engagement with potential consumers and the broader benefits of brand storytelling.
• Restricted sales channels: Sole dependence on Amazon meant missed opportunities on other e-commerce platforms.

Strategy & Implementation: Upon collaborating with our team, a holistic growth strategy was formulated and executed:

• Amazon Revamp: Puvi's Amazon presence was overhauled – this involved updating product listings for better clarity and engagement, incorporating A+ content, and utilizing Amazon's advertising solutions for better product visibility.
• Branding Revitalization: The product packaging and online visuals were redesigned to resonate with today's consumers while retaining the authenticity and richness of Puvi's heritage.
• Diversifying Sales Channels: Beyond Amazon, Puvi's products were introduced to other marketplaces like Flipkart and JioMart, thus widening the sales net. Additionally, efforts were focused on boosting sales through Puvi’s official website, optimizing it for user experience and SEO.
• Social Media Engagement: Recognizing the potential of social media, channels were set up, and regular content calendars were formulated. Engaging content, from the brand's history to the benefits of cold-pressed oils, were shared, creating an involved community around Puvi.
• Emphasizing Product Quality: Through all the channels, one message was consistent – the unparalleled quality of Puvi’s cold-pressed oils. Testimonials, use-cases, and behind-the-scenes content showcased the painstaking care taken in crafting each bottle.

Results: Within three years of consistent effort and iterative strategies, Puvi experienced a monumental growth in sales, increasing by over 2400%. More than just numbers, Puvi transformed from being a hobbyist's project to a well-respected brand in the cold-pressed oil industry.

Conclusion: Puvi’s journey exemplifies how traditional businesses, even with modest beginnings, can be scaled effectively in the digital age with the right strategies, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to product quality.
