The social media strategy for Adobe Creative Cloud helped influence a growth in subscribers from 700,000 subscribers in Q2 2013 (time of the announcement) to surpassing more than 1M subscribers in Q3 2013.

The Challenge

In 2013, Adobe announced a radical business model change for its suite of creative products - the end of Adobe Creative Suite to a fully subscription-based model, Adobe Creative Cloud. This was a big change for its creative users, which received a lot of negative sentiment and push back. The challenge was to leverage social media to build a new community for Adobe Creative Cloud, supporting its customer community in a way that would influence sales for Adobe Creative Cloud.

The Process

During the announcement at the Adobe Max customer event, our communication strategy centered on educating consumers and proactively engaging with them across social media channels. Following the Adobe Max event, our social media strategy focused on celebrating the creative community to build interest around Adobe Creative Cloud and win consumers over to drive sales. We leveraged a thoughtful consumer-centric content strategy combined with a targeted paid media strategy to drive adoption of the Adobe Creative Cloud product.

The Solution

The social media strategy for Adobe Creative Cloud helped influence a growth in subscribers from 700,000 subscribers in Q2 2013 (time of the announcement) to surpassing more than 1M subscribers in Q3 2013.

Patch plants

Patch is a UK-based ecommerce website that sells indoor and outdoor plants, plants pots and many plant care accessories.


The online plant market was growing quickly and competitors were sprouting up everywhere. We were spending a tidy sum on marketing but our conversion rate could have been better. I spotted an opportunity to target a significant segment of our customers who were new to indoor plants. The challenge was that plant newbies were afraid of killing their plants because they didn't know how to look after them.
