The Strategy
Q4 saw a diverse ad campaign testing new and existing visual styles.
We found brighter photos with dynamic angles and eye-catching colors resonated best. Leveraging this insight, we’re refining our strategy to create ads with more visual depth, maximizing existing resources and exploring new asset generation for optimal impact.
Looking Forward
2024 brings a fresh start! We partnered with ICE marketing to establish “Find Your Culinary Voice – Reimagined and “Updated” as our guiding theme, ensuring designs align with our vision.
