Atlas Rose

How We Grew Email Revenue from $16k/month to $85k/month for Atlas Rose Dark Romance — While Giving the Founder Her Time Back

A single-author dark romance store turned her email list into a consistent sales engine—while freeing up her time and boosting profit margins.

Shopify-based Dark Romance Bookstore

Atlas Rose is a Shopify-based dark romance bookstore founded and run entirely by bestselling author Kim.

Addictive Stories & Exclusive Editions

Known for her addictive stories, steamy plotlines, and exclusive special edition boxes, her readers are die-hard fans.

Untapped

Revenue Potential

But with rising ad costs and no time to manage email, the business was leaving serious money on the table.

The Challenge

Email Marketing Underperformance

Email marketing was stuck at 16% of total revenue, underperforming industry benchmarks.

Shrinking Profit Margins

Rising ad costs + high CAC = shrinking profit margins.

Time Constraints

No time to create or send emails consistently (solo founder juggling it all).

Underperforming Flows

Flows were underperforming, with huge revenue gaps in automation.

Lack of Strategy

No clear email strategy or idea of what content her audience wanted.

Unsegmented List

A massive list—but no segmentation or strategy to activate it.

The Solution

Branded Email Redesign

We rebuilt all emails with custom visuals, seductive copy, and dark romantic tones to match her brand voice and hook her readers emotionally.

Discount Psychology Strategy

Instead of blanket offers, we wove strategic discounts into key flows—triggered at the perfect emotional moment to drive conversions without devaluing her products.

25+ Flows Built from Scratch

We covered the entire customer journey: Welcome, Abandoned checkout, Browse & site abandonment, Post-purchase cross-sells, Loyalty-based flows, Winbacks, birthday emails, and more.

Dedicated Campaign Strategy

We created a campaign calendar tailored to her releases, themes, and special editions—ensuring her list stayed warm and excited all year.

Omni-Channel Expansion

We integrated push notifications for real-time reminders across channels, increasing touchpoints without overwhelming the inbox.

Loyalty Program Integration

We launched a reward system to deepen engagement and incentivize repeat purchases with exclusive perks, early access, and tailored messages.

Affiliate Program Buildout

To offset rising ad costs, we implemented an affiliate program that empowered superfans and creators to generate content and referrals.

Advanced Segmentation & Re-Engagement

We activated lapsed subscribers, built high-intent segments, and ran re-engagement campaigns that helped Kim email more people, more effectively—without hurting deliverability.
