Background

Background

Laundry Sauce is revolutionizing the laundry detergent industry, turning mundane chores into extraordinary experiences. With its ethos of 'Everyday Elevated,' the brand infuses everyday life with confidence, excitement, and a sense of belonging. In just 17 months, Laundry Sauce has captivated over 100,000 customers, transcending functionality and nurturing a devoted community that finds joy in the routine.


As the brand looked to maintain the scaling momentum, Laundry Sauce needed an experienced growth partner to align creative direction with financial-driven strategy. With multiple external partners simultaneously running efforts, Laundry Sauce lacked a centralized guide to align efforts and make cohesive decisions and ensure success for all stakeholders.

Web Optimization &
Scaling Infrastucture

In conjunction with their brand redesign, we crafted a fully customized, built-for-scale website for Laundry Sauce. Through dynamic discussions among our teams, we raised the bar for our creative and design deliverables, developing an exceptionally dynamic web experience that elevated the overall brand experience to new heights. Darkroom developed custom features including the build-your-own bundle, new site navigation with customizable marketing callout blocks, a dynamically streamlined FAQs page, and a visual language for each unique scent.


As the brand's expansion journey continued, our web initiatives seamlessly aligned with these overarching goals. We engineered a Conversion Rate Optimized (CRO) website that not only bolstered operations to capitalize on the surge of website traffic, but also established a scalable infrastructure. This provides Laundry Sauce with a robust foundation as they embark on their plan to extend into other product verticals.

Amazon Marketplace Management

Amazon Marketplace Management

At the start of our partnership, we took the lead on redefining Laundry Sauce’s Amazon strategy. We employed a multifaceted approach to maximize performance and user engagement. We focused on four key areas: realigning their listing descriptions, A-plus content enhancement, conducting A/B experiments, and implementing a manual spend strategy. We honed in on consumer preferences for stain removal, updated visuals and messaging to better capture the brand’s unique qualities, and shifted from AI-driven ad spend systems to a more manual, human-led approach. This multifaceted strategy significantly improved visibility and engagement, setting Laundry Sauce apart in a competitive marketplace.
