“Success well beyond our best expectations”
D2C sales, corporate sales, audience growth, and engagement all grew. And word-of-mouth and the talkability of the product started to organically generate sales.
Gruvtowl (Groove-Towel) was a new product entering a golfing market full of big, established brands. The product (a golf towel with integrated brush) was innovative and well designed, but entering a category with no direct competitor meant there was no established product to pitch against.
The marketing budget was modest and the stakes were high – the client had to prove the product worked and deliver fast sales to fund future investment.
Working with the client we established a roadmap of key deliverables that would demonstrate the benefits of the product. With the roadmap in place, we created a social media strategy and content plan that would deliver the key messages, in a powerful, relevant and engaging way. We then layered in a highly targeted paid-for advertising across Instagram and Facebook. Using organic and paid-for social was the catalyst for a fantastic brand launch and delivered outstanding results.

When it comes to advertising on social, its very challenging, since products are cheap. This made it difficult to make it profitable with ads when targeting directly to individuals (B2C) instead of business owners (B2B). They are more profitable when they get bulk orders from businesses or organizations. Targeting a cold audience on Facebook/Instagram was challenging to stay profitable at scale.
