Before The Challenge
When Infinity Media partnered with Smodin, the AI startup was in its infancy, primarily operating as a bootstrapped venture by a single entrepreneur striving to create superior AI-driven essay writing software for students. The challenge at hand was to exponentially scale user registrations and stimulate new subscription growth.
Despite an appreciable organic footprint, Smodin was struggling with a lack of paid media and virtually non-existent marketing strategy. Moreover, their website was riddled with ads, hampering their credibility, while low user acquisition and a meager subscription rate (below 0.15%) underscored the need for our intervention.

The Outcome Solution
Infinity Media’s strategic transformation began with the redesign and implementation of fresh landing pages, mandating user registration prior to accessing the software. Iterative improvements in the landing page design resulted in a dramatic boost in registration rates, soaring to over 60%! This key step laid the foundation for a robust user base that we could then engage for conversion to paid subscriptions.
Parallelly, we launched an email nurturing campaign aimed at new registrants, designed to drive early engagement. We discovered that users who engaged within the first 8 hours exhibited a subscription rate 300% higher than those who didn’t.
Our strategy incorporated intuitive audience segmentation, enabling us to familiarize registered users with the software, bolster credibility through user reviews and testimonials, highlight unique selling propositions, and ultimately enhance the conversion rate from registration to subscription. Once we attained a satisfactory conversion rate, we embarked on data-driven campaigns on Facebook and Google Ads to further boost user registrations.
Persistent testing and optimization helped us slash the Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) for registrations to roughly $1 on both Facebook and Google, while simultaneously scaling user volume to over 15,000/mo. Our comprehensive approach entailing data-driven analysis, product optimizations, funnel & pricing tests, and Facebook retargeting further allowed us to bring subscription CPAs under $36.
Within just a few months, we managed to generate over 1,000 new subscriptions, each with a lifetime value of $150. This monumental achievement underscores the transformative impact of Infinity Media’s partnership with Smodin, turning a bootstrapped startup into a flourishing AI enterprise.
