This brand wanted to develop a custom series targeted at lower-affinity tween fans of their products in order to grow brand loyalty and develop rapport with its online audience.
 

The Approach

Theorist worked closely with the brand to develop a series launch strategy from scratch, creating the content calendar and refining the full creative approach. Through launch, Theorist provided episode-by-episode optimization and creative notes for the series in order to iteratively improve content over time. Theorist also led the team in the series analysis and trained internal team members to assess the series’ performance into the future.
