Strategies that send profits soaring.

Abeka equips students, teachers, and parents with Pre-K through grade 12 academic resources both on and offline. They first came to Lewis in 2013 as the homeschool industry was rapidly beginning to grow, and Abeka’s growth with the D2C market was stagnant.

We needed to become a full-service, strategic partner to help reshape Abeka’s business for the long term.

We did this by immersing ourselves in Abeka’s business in order to deeply understand their vision and mission. By approaching the problem not as a traditional marketing firm, but rather a key stakeholder focused on business growth, we were able to build trust with Abeka’s C-suite. This resulted in a strategic, integrated, omni-channel approach that closely aligned with marketing, e-commerce, publishing, product development and customer service.

The goal was to compound what they were already doing well, while using our resources and expertise to fill gaps. Since becoming an invested partner, Abeka’s annual business continues to grow.
