Instasmile was my first marketing role. As a Digital Marketing Executive, I was flung into the deep end amongst a variety of different marketing channels, however, my main responsibility was Email Marketing.

On top of this, I A/B tested email headings to drive open rates to an average of 19.8%.

One of these emails in particular saw a conversion rate of 11.3%. My other campaigns would see an average of 4.7%.
