Crawford Street Skin Care
Crawford Street Skin Care is a Canadian natural skin care brand built on plant-based, eco-conscious, and fair-trade ingredients. Founded by Gaelyne Leslie, the brand has carved out a distinctive position: simple, effective skin care for perimenopausal and menopausal women, a demographic that remains significantly underserved in the beauty industry. With a growing line of bestselling essentials and a loyal customer base, Crawford Street partnered with Good Eggs & Co. to manage the full channel mix and translate real audience insight into measurable ecommerce growth.
The challenge
Traffic was growing. Conversion and loyalty needed work.
Crawford Street had strong foundations: quality products, an engaged audience, and genuine brand equity. But scaling required more than consistent posting. It needed a channel-wide strategy that could turn rising awareness into repeatable purchases and a customer base that kept coming back. Key gaps included a site conversion rate under pressure from new top-of-funnel ad traffic, an email program leaning too heavily on promotions rather than relationship-building, and social channels without a unified content framework or launch infrastructure to sustain momentum.
The approach
Good Eggs built a strategy that worked across every channel simultaneously.
One unified strategy across every channel
Good Eggs built a cohesive content and channel strategy that ran consistently across social, email, paid, and web. Every touchpoint worked toward the same goal: establishing Crawford Street as a trusted authority in natural skin care for women in midlife, and giving customers a reason to return beyond a sale. Rather than treating each channel in isolation, the strategy was designed so that social built awareness, email deepened loyalty, paid amplified key moments, and the website converted the growing audience into repeat buyers.

Client voice
“Partnering with the Good Eggs team has been an absolute delight. Over the course of 14 years, I have hired several agencies and consultants to help grow and oversee marketing. Good Eggs (Joanna and Sam) have been by far the best partners, mainly because they listen and understand our unique marketing needs. They get it, and they’ve made it fun instead of stressful. With their help planning and executing email, social and PR, results have been awesome and I have been able to focus on my core business, knowing that all of our marketing needs are in good hands. They truly are exceptionally Good Eggs!”
