How Cheryl’s Herbs Turned Email Marketing
into a $37,000 Success Story?

About Cheryl’s Herbs

Cheryl’s Herbs About Us
Cheryl’s Herbs has been part of the herbal wellness community since 1991. Based in Missouri, the brand began with a simple mission: to make natural living easier and more accessible to everyone.
Over the years, Cheryl’s Herbs has grown from a small local shop into a well-known wholesale and retail herbal company offering pure essential oils, herbs, and handmade wellness products. Their team also crafts custom blends and private-label products for other businesses.
Even under new management, Cheryl’s Herbs continues to carry forward the founder’s legacy, providing natural, holistic care to the community with honesty, love, and care.

The Challenge

Before partnering with Mastroke, Cheryl’s Herbs faced a tough business challenge.
Their wholesale return on investment was low, while their retail products, though popular, had smaller margins. This combination meant that even with regular sales, overall revenue growth was limited.Given the competitive online market for gourmet cakes, a strong SEO strategy was essential to attract customers actively searching for products like theirs.
They needed a way to improve profitability, especially in the wholesale segment, and wanted a cost-effective solution that could drive better results without overhauling their entire marketing strategy.

The Goal

The main goal was clear: increase wholesale revenue through targeted and consistent email marketing campaigns.
Timeframe: 3 months
Priority: Wholesale revenue generation through email marketing

The Mastroke Solution

To achieve this, our team at Mastroke designed a strategic email marketing plan centered around Cheryl’s wholesale audience.
Here’s what we did:

1. Strategic Setup and Planning

We began with a thorough understanding of Cheryl’s audience, product range, and seasonal buying trends. Our strategy focused on B2B email flows that nurtured long-term buyers while re-engaging inactive ones.

2. Targeted Campaigns

We created personalized email campaigns featuring:
  • Product highlights for wholesale buyers
  • Limited-time offers to boost urgency
  • Educational content around product use and herbal benefits

3. Email Segmentation and Automation

Using list segmentation, we ensured every email reached the right audience: wholesalers, retailers, or individual customers. Automated email flows were then designed for onboarding, re-engagement, and repeat purchases.

4. Consistent Performance Tracking

We closely monitored every campaign using email marketing analytics tools and adjusted our messaging, visuals, and timing based on open rates, click-throughs, and conversions.

Step-by-Step Implementation and Process

Once the strategy was finalized, our team moved into execution mode, focusing on clear communication, consistent branding, and measurable performance.

Setting Up the Foundation

We cleaned and segmented Cheryl’s Herbs’ email lists, separating wholesale customers, retail buyers, and inactive subscribers. This ensured every email reached the right audience.
Next, we designed custom templates that reflected Cheryl’s natural, earthy brand: warm colors, herbal imagery, and friendly, informative messaging.

The implementation followed a phased approach:

Phase 1 – Setup & Audit:
We reviewed past campaigns, identified engagement gaps, and set key performance benchmarks.
Phase 2 – Strategy Execution:
Segmented campaigns targeted wholesalers with product education, bulk incentives, and seasonal offers. Retail customers received softer engagement content like herbal tips and product spotlights.

Phase 3 – Automation & Optimization:

Automated flows handled onboarding, re-engagement, and follow-ups — keeping communication consistent without overwhelming subscribers.

Collaboration & Fine-Tuning

The approval process required close coordination to ensure product accuracy and brand consistency. Once streamlined, campaign rollout became smooth and efficient.
We continuously tested subject lines, visuals, and send times to improve open and click-through rates.

By blending Cheryl’s authentic brand voice with Mastroke’s data-driven strategy, we created a seamless experience that guided subscribers from awareness to purchase.
