Launching a New Product Into the UK — and Finding Sales Inside the Testing Phase.
Pickarli was bringing a shoe washing bag into the UK market. The product solved a clear problem, but the creative had to do more than look good — it had to explain the use case fast, make the benefit feel obvious and give a new audience a reason to trust the product.
With no mature creative history to lean on, our job was to build the learning system from the ground up: identify the strongest customer pains, turn them into testable angles and produce enough variation to discover what could actually drive purchases.
The Creatives That Turned Testing Into Traction.
We built and produced paid-social creatives around the moments that mattered: the problem, the product in action, the reason to believe and the reason to buy. The video marquee below shows the execution.
Every creative had a job. Some opened with the frustration around washing shoes, some demonstrated the product immediately, and others handled the hesitation around whether a washing bag could protect the shoes and make the cleaning process easier.
Rather than repeating one ad with cosmetic changes, we varied hooks, framing, pacing and proof so the testing phase could tell us which creative ideas were worth carrying forward.
We started with the product and the UK customer context, then mapped the clearest purchase drivers: protecting shoes in the wash, keeping them contained, reducing mess and making shoe cleaning feel easier.
From there, we developed the angle strategy, wrote hooks and concepts, directed the creative production and used the first performance signals to shape the next iterations. The result was a feedback loop between strategy, production and paid testing — not a pile of disconnected assets.
