Emily Beaver’s crochet business has taken the internet by storm, thanks to her unconventional yet heartwarming marketing strategy: involving her parents as models. The wholesome content featuring her dad, Jeff Beaver, has not only entertained millions but also significantly boosted her crochet business.
The Start of a Viral Sensation
Emily Beaver, a talented crochet artist, has been gaining popularity online for her intricate and creative designs. However, it wasn’t just her skills with a needle that caught people's attention. The charm of her family, especially her dad's willingness to don her crocheted creations, played a pivotal role in her rise to internet fame.
The journey began when Emily's mom, Amy Beaver, wore one of Emily’s designs, leading to an increase in social media views. But it was her dad, Jeff Beaver, who truly captivated the online audience. Jeff started wearing Emily’s crop tops and bralettes in videos, dancing and goofing around with infectious enthusiasm. His antics quickly went viral, with one video featuring him in a rainbow ensemble during a family “drag race” routine amassing nearly 19 million views.
Embracing the Silliness
Emily credits her parents’ willingness to embrace silliness for the success of her LoveBeav crochet line. In an interview with Good Morning America, she explained that her dad has always been unafraid to look silly if it meant having fun. "We could care less what other people think about how silly it might look," Emily said. "My dad has never been afraid to look silly, especially if he's having fun doing it, so there was never any hesitation on his part."
Exponential Growth and New Opportunities
The family's playful videos have led to exponential growth for Emily’s business. She shared that her sales have surged from barely any to selling out each month's restock. This success has allowed her to become a full-time crochet artist. Additionally, Emily has partnered with Michael’s Craft Store, a favourite spot for her crochet supplies.
Among Emily’s creations, the “Third Eye” bralettes are particularly popular, available in various colours. Jeff seems to have a fondness for the green one, which he wears with undeniable flair. His confidence and joy in modelling these tops have led some to wonder, "Why does he look so good in those crochet tops?"
The Internet's Approval
The internet community has wholeheartedly embraced the Beaver family's antics. Comments from viewers highlight how their videos bring joy and inspiration. One person remarked, “Totally don’t have this relationship with my parents but I would do this for my kids. You all are awesome.”
Quality Time and Joy
For Emily, the true highlight of this journey has been the quality time spent with her parents. “The most important thing for me and my parents is that we are spending quality time laughing and enjoying what we are doing,” she told GMA. The genuine joy and connection shared by the Beaver family are evident in their videos and resonate with viewers worldwide.
The Beaver family’s joy is contagious, spreading smiles and laughter to anyone who watches their videos. Whether they are selling crocheted tops, showcasing silly dad dances, or simply sharing family moments, they have created a viral phenomenon that blends wholesome family fun with savvy marketing. Whatever they're promoting, people are eager to support and share in their happiness.
