The British International School of Houston is a premium private K-12 located in one of Houston's suburbs. Because of its location away from the center of wealth, Houston's heavy traffic, and it's location in a suburb away from main roads or highways, BIS Houston was known as one of Houston's best kept secrets but had reached a plateau in its growth. In addition, as a premium private school, BIS Houston also has 2 or 3 competitors that are located closer to the center of wealth within Houston that have comparable tuition rates (averaging $24,000/year per child).

Hot shapers wanted to start selling in the US (Hispanic and not the Hispanic audience). They have a successful brand in Latam but the US was a completely unknown market for them

Plate Crate wanted to scale and take their business to the next level but had not had success previously when trying to scale.

Shark Clean AU is the sister brand to Ninja Kitchen and they both faced similar challenges.

The brand was struggling to improve the ROAS of their online store above 300%, after getting a taste of 800 - 900% during the pandemic, when people being stuck at home all day every day was beneficial to a brand like theirs. The brand was already familiar to consumers who were used to seeing it at stores like Harvey Norman and Kmart, but now could no longer shop at those stores. Another challenge was not being able to offer discounts on their products deeper than the stockist retailer were offering.

The target ROAS was 500 - 600%. The channels they were using were Facebook/Instagram Ads and Google Ads. Facebook was an area of concern as they did not see consistent returns there, although the channel did very well during lockdowns.
