Anova Culinary — Brand & DTC Content Systems

Built the creative engine behind 5.0 ROAS

Challenge

As Anova's DTC business scaled, content demands multiplied across paid, owned, and organic channels — but production systems hadn't kept pace. Teams were working in parallel rather than as a unified engine, creating inconsistency and duplicated effort as volume and spend grew.

  • 30–60 paid creative variants per month, iterated on performance signals

  • Multi-format asset reuse across paid social, email, on-site, and organic

  • ~3 owned-site updates per week; ~2 lifecycle email campaigns per week
