Challenge
A solo-managed inbox running on copy-paste replies. PPVs were a flat $25 to everyone, sent twice a week with no segmentation. Most whales were going unanswered after 10pm.
What we changed
- Spun up a 4-person 24/7 team — coverage across EU, US East, US West and SEA timezones.
- Built a 6-step PPV pricing ladder: $9 / $19 / $35 / $59 / $95 / $145.
- Segmented the fan base into 5 cohorts: VIP, whales, mid-spend, casuals, churn-risk.
- Wrote a voice doc capturing the creator's flirty-Southern tone and rewrote 47 scripts.
- Daily revenue review for the first 30 days, then weekly.

Challenge
Strong subscriber growth but flat monetisation. One price for every fan meant whales were underpaying and casuals never converted at all.
What we changed
- Replaced the flat $40 PPV with a six-tier ladder priced against each cohort's spend history.
- Moved drops off a fixed schedule and onto per-cohort timing windows.
- Introduced a win-back sequence for fans inactive for 21+ days.
- Weekly A/B test on the opening line of every drop.

Challenge
Custom-content demand outstripped what one person could quote, schedule and follow up on. Requests were being dropped, and the ones that landed took days to close.
What we changed
- Scaled to a 6-chatter team with a dedicated custom-order coordinator.
- Built a quoting matrix so any chatter could price a custom request instantly.
- Added a follow-up cadence for unclosed quotes at 6h, 24h and 72h.
- Introduced a VIP tier with guaranteed sub-60-second replies.
