Marketing for fashion and design brands

In fashion, the brand is built on social media but sold at the right moment: a launch, a restock, a collaboration. The job is to be there when it happens.

Methods with examples

Illustrative figures.

Back-in-stock alerts in batches

When a sold-out size comes back, alerting everyone at once can sell it out in minutes and leave most people with a link to an out-of-stock product.

Restock flowrule
trigger: the product is back in stock
audience: asked to be notified for that size and color
sending: batches of 20% every 30 minutes
if it sells out: stop sending and move the rest to a waitlist

Recommendation. Order the batches by how long ago people asked to be notified: the first to ask is the first to know.

Repurchase by first purchase

The product someone enters the brand with predicts whether they will come back. It is measured by first-purchase cohort.

90-day repurchase by entry producttable
first purchase           customers   came back within 90 days
basics                     1,200          31%
seasonal collection          800          18%
accessories                  450          24%

Recommendation. Use the product that drives the most repurchase as the ad for new customers, even if it is not the best seller.

What we recommend in each case

If this is happeningWe recommendWhy
Lots of reach and few salesEmail flows and a keyword on Reels before more adsThe interest is already there: what is missing is the path to purchase
Sizes that sell out and never sell againBack-in-stock alerts in batchesThe demand is already on record
One-purchase customersPost-purchase with a care guide and early access to the next launchThe second purchase is the hardest
Many size-related returnsA size agent with the size guideEvery exchange costs shipping and margin
Ads that always bring the same peopleSeparate campaigns for new customers and for repurchaseIf they are mixed, the budget goes to people who would have bought anyway
