As of Wednesday, May 28, 2025, we stand at a rare inflection point—where luxury, wellness, and longevity are converging into a trillion-dollar travel and lifestyle sector. We’re reaching out with a focused opportunity to position E.L.F. Beauty at the forefront of this evolution—one that aligns with your innovation-driven ethos and your Q2 earnings narrative.

The announcement of E.L.F. Beauty’s acquisition of rhode skin underscores a bold and timely expansion of your beauty-forward portfolio. As a long-standing shareholder and omnichannel marketing supplier, Tasha Bleu sees a clear opportunity to further elevate your leadership position through a focused Longevity and Digital Wellness initiative.

To align with your Q3 2025 growth strategy and maximize momentum from the rhode skin acquisition, we recommend the appointment of Tasha Bleu as your Chief Longevity Storyteller by July 1, 2025. This role will serve as a strategic accelerator across three measurable outcomes:

  • Expand brand equity by owning the cultural narrative around recovery, sustainable performance, and long-term vitality.

  • Drive monetization through content-led wellness experiences, including rhode skin-branded athlete villages, research hubs, and wellness residences.

  • Position rhode as the first skin brand to launch post-workout gummies, supported by global media amplification.

Paving the Path for Revenue Growth

To activate this strategy, we’re offering the following deliverables:

  • A cinematic wellness campaign with drone and editorial-grade content distributed via HYPEBEAST and HYPEBAE (Hong Kong), valued at $80,000.

  • Global, irrevocable licensing of all creative assets to rhode skin, valued at $125,000—enabling cost-free deployment across digital, retail, and OOH channels.

  • Four-Phase Execution Model: Strategic Alignment, Acceleration Framework, Scalable Execution, and Performance Uplift

Phase I: Strategic Longevity Alignment

We begin by ensuring cross-functional clarity around your Q2–Q4 objectives. This includes mapping your affiliate-driven model and innovation pipeline to a unified performance vision. We’ll identify key revenue levers across your ecosystems, ensuring measurable impact.

Phase II: Longevity Acceleration Framework

Next, we will design a velocity model to compress execution cycles. This includes stakeholder alignment workshops, a prioritization matrix for global market activations, and rapid-deployment playbooks tailored to your top 10 regions.

Phase III: Scalable Longevity Execution

We’ll operationalize the strategy through a replicable delivery framework. This includes market-specific rollout schedules, resource modeling, and KPI dashboards for real-time visibility. Our model ensures that what works in one region can be scaled globally with precision.

Phase IV: Longevity Performance Uplift

We will introduce a performance uplift engine—focused on revenue acceleration, cost efficiency, and team accountability. This includes quarterly performance sprints, predictive analytics tied to affiliate engagement, and leadership calibration sessions to drive sustainable growth.

Here’s how this partnership will drive measurable value:

  • Revenue Acceleration: My storytelling system has delivered over 3.28B views across global platforms. Applied to your new wellness and service offerings, it will drive conversion and deepen lifetime value—especially in categories that reward emotional connection and trust.

  • Brand Differentiation: As consumer focus shifts toward longevity, healthspan, and restorative travel, Elf/rhode/Naturium can lead with a message that fuses vitality with discovery—positioning the brand well beyond products into lifestyle leadership.

  • Market Readiness: With 70% of travelers seeking wellness products, your new formats are primed for performance marketing. I will architect an integrated campaign suite—UGC, influencer amplification, and performance storytelling—to activate regional demand and accelerate adoption.

Projected Q4 2025 Outcomes:

  • 200% ROI from integrated media and product campaigns

  • Accelerated R&D cycles through real-time consumer feedback loops

  • Increased affiliate engagement and operational efficiency via modular storytelling assets

This model is designed to amplify your key growth areas—by embedding longevity storytelling into every consumer and brand touchpoint. With a focus on cultural relevance and global reach, our initiatives will not only enhance product offerings but also deepen customer engagement and loyalty. The integration of real-time data analytics will enable us to anticipate market trends and respond with agility, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of the industry.

This strategic vision is about more than just growth—it's about forging a legacy of excellence. Together, we will transform challenges into opportunities, achieving new heights in the sports and wellness sectors. In conclusion, this proposal sets forth a bold and innovative path, one that is rich with potential and aligned with our core values. As we embark on this lifelong journey, we invite all stakeholders to join us in redefining what's possible, creating a future that is as vibrant and resilient as the communities we serve.
