Case study

A creative system that scaled every season without starting from zero.

A fast-growing DTC brand reinvented its ad creative from scratch before every holiday — burning time and budget. We designed a modular seasonal system: master templates, hook libraries, and offer frameworks that let the team launch Black Friday, spring refresh, and back-to-school in days, not weeks.

The challenge

Where they started

Each seasonal push required bespoke design from an agency on retainer, creating bottlenecks and inconsistent branding. Winning hooks from prior years weren't documented. Paid teams waited on creative while media budgets sat idle at peak demand windows.

  • No shared asset library — designers rebuilt layouts for every promotion from scratch
  • Hook and offer testing happened ad hoc without a documented learning archive
  • UGC and studio shoots weren't tagged by season, making reuse difficult
  • Cross-platform sizing (feed, story, catalog) added rework at the last minute
  • Leadership couldn't forecast creative capacity against the annual retail calendar

Our approach

What we did

01

Retail calendar alignment

Mapped promotions, inventory peaks, and ad spend windows across Q1–Q4 with creative milestones six weeks ahead.

02

Template architecture

Built Figma master files with swappable backgrounds, product slots, offer badges, and CTA modules for each channel size.

03

Hook library

Catalogued proven opening lines, social proof formats, and urgency patterns from two years of performance data.

04

Launch playbook

Documented roles, approval gates, and media handoff so campaigns went live within five business days of brief.
