Emma Abbott

Digital Marketing Leader

I have 15+ years of marketing experience in a variety of industries including retail, wellness, travel, F&B, outdoor, sports, CPG and hospitality.

About Me.

From my time as PR/social manager at Delaware North Companies to my current role as VP of Digital at TURNER PR, I have been immersed in onmichannel marketing for a variety of industries.


From working on projects like opening the Explorer Cabins at Yellowstone with a large digital marketing push to launching Hydroflask's Tumbler with influencers such as Dixie D'amelio, I deliver programs that drive brand growth and deepen consumer connection.

Case Study: Pakt Backpack Launch

I worked as the Director of Marketing for a travel accessories startup called Pakt. We launched the Pakt Travel Backpack just before the pandemic hit. The challenge was real and we had to get creative, fast.



We pivoted from a more straight-forward launch plan to a teaser- influencer led plan, tapping gear-reviewer Chase Reeves to help put the finishing touches on the bag and tap into his deeply invested audience. Paired with a robust paid media strategy, the launch was a huge success despite the beginning of the pandemic bringing the economy to it's knees.


Results:

  • 500k+ in sales the first month
  • Growth of social channels by 45% in first month
  • Garnered over 10 million impressions from earned media, gear reviewers, affiliates and contracted influencers within the first two weeks of campaign
  • Had 43 pieces of content go live in first week on YT, TT, IG and various outlets.


Airstream x REI

Airstream & REI debuted a new travel trailer (Basecamp 20X tr) and I was tasked with blowing this partnership up on digital.


Through a mix of social, paid and organic tactics, we made a huge splash with this launch.


  • 20MM Impressions
  • 19% CTR
  • 100+ Social mentions
  • Grew newsletter list by 10%

While at my time at GKV I oversaw the h full McComick portfolio of brands for digital, including Frank’s RedHot. We wanted to make a splash around their release of a Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich for only $1 (limited time offer), so we headed to Twitter (RIP).

Franks Redhot

We did a cheeky late-night campaign launch with a simple tweet: “Hey @Wendys, u up?”. The convo ensued…and then it went viral.
