When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC. And it's usually reactive, left dealing with the aftermath of negative information published somewhere online. That's outdated. It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it.

The Team Myology Brand
Ambassador Network
C a s e S t u d y # 1
Impactful influencer marketing does not
have to be outsourced, costly, or one-
and-done.
Here’s how I shared brand messaging
with over 500,000 consumers per month
with minimal spend for 4 consecutive
years.
14. 13
The Solution
I activated a team of elite influencers in
the exercise and fitness community in
support of the Puritan’s Pride brand with
special emphasis on Myology, increasing
brand awareness among the influencer’s
legions of engaged social media followers.
The Problem
Puritan’s Pride is well known for its brand
portfolio of vitamins and herbal
supplements; however, Puritan’s Myology
line of premium sports nutrition products
began to experience declining
awareness and sales.
Brand ambassadors selected included
bodybuilding, physique competitors, fitness
models and personal trainers.
Fitness content and promotions had
historically failed to resonate with Puritan’s
core customer base of 50+ women.
Traditional marketing channels seldom
included Myology in promotional
messaging, due to low consumer response.
Affordable and high-quality, Myology
products showed enormous potential for
those new to the sports nutrition market.
Participants were required to have a
minimum of 5k Instagram followers, high
engagement, and quality photo shares.
I served as the Team Manager – the
exclusive owner of all athlete
communications from program inception.

New to File Customer
Acquisition Campaign
C a s e S t u d y # 2
Those who say that ‘social doesn’t sell’ shouldn’t
interruptthosewhoarealreadydoingit.
Here’s how I used Facebook to convert over
5,000leadsintonew-to-filecustomers.
18. 17
The Solution
I leveraged consumer data, Facebook insights,
and advanced audience segmenting
techniques to identify key groups of potential
new-to-file customers and deliver targeted offers
to incentivize purchase.
The Problem
Facebook had shown enormous success
in driving revenue among existing
Puritan’s Pride customers, but the ROI on
customer acquisition campaigns had
traditionally been poor.
Those who had already made contact with
the brand by visiting the site or submitting an
email address were prioritized.
An improved ROAS was necessary to
justify allocating more ad dollars to
social media campaigns.
Social campaigns were successful in
driving traffic to puritan.com, but
conversion remained low.
Mobile usage of Facebook had grown
exponentially, but most customers still
preferred to shop on desktop computers.
A robust plan was created to test a variety
of copy, creative, and offer types over a 2-
month period.
Ad dollars were allotted for the purpose of
testing the potential of Facebook as a
customer acquisition channel.

Email Leads
Individuals who had opted into
email messaging but had not yet
made a purchase.
Site Visitors
Individuals who had visited
puritan.com through any source

not purchase.
Lookalikes

info and purchasing habits similar
to Puritan’s top customers.
Native Ads
Consumers determined by
Facebook to be those most likely to
purchase vitamins & supplements
from an online retailer.

02 ADAPTION PUBLIC
Potential new customers who have already
indicated interest in the brand, either by
visiting the site or opting into email, are the
most likely to convert.
03 Start Close to Home
Account for consumer browsing and
shopping on both mobile and desktop
devices, and make the transition between
the two as smooth as possible.
01 Make It Seamless
Use all data at your disposal to exclude
existing customers from offers that target
potential new to file customers.
05 Apply Exclusions
A large amount of information is needed to

The Solution
Short videos spotlighting new product
innovations were developed and distributed
through social media channels, leveraging the
power of both organic and paid reach on
each channel.
The Problem
While Puritan’s Pride had launched a
steady stream of several new
products each month, the messaging
had failed to resonate with Puritan’s
core consumer base.
As recommended by the Facebook
accounts team, videos were capped at a
maximum length of 15 seconds each.
Allotting substantial web real estate to
product launches was problematic, due to
potentially negative impact on revenue.
Though email open rates were normally
high, customer response to email
campaigns was primarily offer-driven.
Research indicated that core customers,
though fiercely brand loyal, were hesitant to
stray from existing health plans.
Each ‘story’ included 3 carefully edited
bullet points, clearly describing the key
product benefits to the consumer.
Vendor and Facebook marketing partner
VidMob was activated to affordably
create 4 videos per month for 3 months.
See Appendix C for additional program details.

02 ADAPTION PUBLIC
Leveraging producer/editors via Vidmob
ensures accountability, low production
costs, rapid turnarounds, and scalable
content output.
03 Work With a Vendor
Attention spans are short! To ensure the
impact of video messaging, keep the total
length of the video as short as possible.
01 Keep Videos Short
Using animations early in the video grabs
eyeballs during newsfeed scroll. Also,
introduce product benefits quickly – within
the first 3 seconds.
05 Use Impactful Creative
Ensure that internal stakeholders, including
creative, marketing, and branding leads,
approve of the look & feel of videos from the
very outset.
06 Stakeholder Buy-In
Creating a reusable video format makes it
easy to work with multiple editors, keeping
costs and production times down.
04 Create a Template
Facebook’s ever-evolving newsfeed
algorithm rewards videos uploaded natively
to their platform with higher reach, both
paid and organic.

5 Supplements That
Support a Positive Mood
b y D a n M a i e r l e
Written for Healthy Perspectives by Puritan’s Pride in April of 2017

28. W R I T I N G S A M P L E
We lean on nutritional supplements to help us support our
hearts, digestion, joints, bones, immune systems, eyes and skin
without hesitation, but what about that other part of wellness
that’s a bit more complicated but just as important?
C’mon, get happy! Here are the top 5 mood support
supplements that made our list.
5-HTP
You’re probably familiar with serotonin – a neurotransmitter
that contributes to a person’s mood and well-being – but
where does it come from? The amino acid L-tryptophan,
found naturally in animal and plant proteins that we consume,
is converted into serotonin by an intermediary called 5-HTP (5-
hydroxytryptophan). By serving as a precursor to serotonin, 5-
HTP helps promote a relaxed mood and a positive outlook.
Several factors, such as occasional stress, can reduce L-
tryptophan conversion into serotonin in the body, but 5-HTP can
bypass several of these factors. 5-HTP is not found in a typical
diet; in fact, supplemental 5-HTP is often derived from an exotic
West African plant, Griffonia simplicifolia.
SAM-e
From an ancient herb we move on to a modern discovery with
benefits that go well beyond mood support. SAM-e, the term
used to describe the compound S-Adenosylmethionine, is a vital
substance found in most cells that’s essential to many
biochemical reactions in the body. It was discovered in Italy in
1952, and has been used successfully and extensively in Europe
for over 20 years. SAM-e may enhance the sensitivity of specific
nerve receptors in the brain, thereby supporting mood and
27
29. W R I T I N G S A M P L E
emotional well-being. Seniors in particular should consider
supplementing with SAM-e; levels of SAM-e in the body may
decline with age, and it also supports senior health concerns
including joint function, mobility, and liver health.
L-Theanine
Tea lovers, rejoice! Green tea lovers, that is. L-Theanine, a non-
essential amino acid that supports mood centers in the brain,
was discovered to be a constituent of green tea leaves in 1949.
L-Theanine influences alpha brain wave activity and interacts
with the neurotransmitter GABA, which is believed to provide
the beneficial effect of supporting a calm, relaxed mood. If
you don’t have a taste for a soothing cup of green tea, L-
Theanine can be consumed as a nutritional supplement on its
own or in combination with other mood supporting
supplements.
Lemon Balm
If you’re picturing a lemony ointment generously applied to
thirsty lips on a dry winter day, think again – Lemon Balm is
neither lemon nor balm. It’s actually a perennial herbaceous
plant from the mint family with small white flowers that bloom in
the summer throughout southern Europe and even as far away
as central Asia. The leaves, whose mild scent can be
described as a cross between lemon and mint, are used as an
herb that helps promote relaxation and mood. Lemon Balm is
also used in teas, as a culinary flavoring, an essential oil, and
especially to attract bees for honey production.
St. John’s Wort
Here’s one weed that gardeners will love. Probably the most
well-known supplement on our list, St. John’s Wort has been
used for centuries as an herbal tonic. This flowering plant is
native to Europe, but also grows wild in the meadows and
woods of California and Southern Oregon, where it’s actually
considered an invasive weed. Its yellow flowers bloom right
around the time of St. John’s Day – June 24th – when Christians
honor the birth of St. John the Baptist. In ancient times, St.
John’s Wort was smoked in fires and hung in houses to purify
the air of evil spirits. Today, it’s used to nutritionally support a
healthy emotional balance.

Offer Types
Tone, sentence structure, character count, sense of
urgency, and clarity of call to action all impact
consumer response to campaign messaging.
Pics get clicks……but which get the most? Should
creative emphasize products, correlating lifestyle
interests, or the offer value?
The total discount allotted, percentage off vs. dollar
off, minimum order threshold, visibility of offer code,
and order restrictions must all be considered.
You’ve got the clickthru. Then what? Should the
customer land on the homepage? Top sellers? A
product detail page? Should the offer messaging be
reinforced?

Offer Type
A custom category with top-selling, low-cost, single-
buy trial size products drove the highest conversion.
Site customizations that reinforced the advertised
offer also contributed to conversion.
Determinations
Landing
Page
A short message with a moderate sense of urgency that
clearly explained the offer, emphasized free shipping,
contained a visible coupon code and concluded with a call
to action was the most impactful.
Product imagery out-performed brand and lifestyle imagery across
the board. It was also determined that a total of 3 products
displayed resonated more than a larger product stack, and that a
green/yellow/blue color palette received the highest response.
Percentage off coupons with no minimum order threshold, no
restrictions, a 2-week redemption window, and free shipping
drove the highest conversion at the lowest cost per acquisition.
However, dollar off coupons had higher AOVs and ROAS.

Site Visitors
Consumer Actions Speak Louder than Consumer Data
Facebook may know its users better than any other advertising platform, but at the end of the day, consumer actions that indicate interest
and familiarity with the brand are more likely indicative of actual likelihood of purchase. Potential new customers who had visited the site
or opted into email messaging were far more likely to convert than individuals identified by Facebook as potential customers to target.
