Sales Funnel VIP Day
Year
2020
U Me Paint Experience is a chic paint-and-sip lounge in Old Town Saginaw, where guests connect with friends, family, and strangers-turned-friends while unleashing their creativity under the guidance of an experienced local artist. With a 100% recommendation rate from hundreds of reviews, the studio built its reputation on a warm, social, in-person atmosphere — guests walk in for a night out and walk away with a painting and a memory.
When COVID-19 shut the studio’s doors, the entire business model — built around bringing people physically together — was suddenly at risk. The owner came to Tiffany Michelle & Co. needing to move fast: take the heart of the in-studio experience and turn it into something customers could enjoy safely from home, without losing what made the brand special in the first place.
THE CHALLENGE
U Me Paint’s entire business was built on in-person connection — guests in a room, an artist guiding them live, a shared social experience. With studios closed and no clear timeline for reopening, the brand had no digital product, no sales page, and no way to deliver that same connection remotely. The team needed a working solution fast, not a months-long rebuild.
THE APPROACH
Tiffany ran an intensive Sales Funnel and Product Creation VIP Day to move quickly from idea to execution. Starting with a focused strategy session to map the logistics and marketing of a virtual experience, the team built a MailChimp sales page integrated with the client’s existing Wix site, wrote all the copy needed to sell the new offer, and configured the technology so the studio could run its first-ever virtual painting experience.
