The Challenge
Assault Fitness, the brand behind industry-leading cardio equipment like the AssaultBike and AirRunner, had an established reputation within elite training and CrossFit communities. Their next goal: expand direct-to-consumer sales at scale while maintaining strong efficiency across paid channels.
They partnered with us to refine their Meta advertising strategy, optimize creative direction, and support their team in scaling revenue sustainably—without relying solely on increased spend. A key focus was driving profitability even during aggressive sales cycles like Black Friday/Cyber Monday (BFCM) and year-end holiday pushes.
Our Strategy
Our collaboration focused on maximizing returns through data-driven optimization and high-impact creative guidance:
1. Full-Funnel Meta Ads Optimization
Built separate funnels for B2C and B2B audiences, tailoring messaging based on intent signals.
Leveraged a video-first approach, using real workout footage, UGC testimonials, and product demos to warm cold audiences.
Integrated smarter retargeting strategies based on average order value (AOV) behavior and timing windows.
Provided ongoing performance feedback to their internal teams to ensure fast creative pivots based on real-time data.
2. Creative Consulting and Insights
Delivered quarterly audits analyzing ad performance across formats, messaging angles, and CTA strength.
Recommended optimizations in video pacing, aspect ratios (4:5 and 1:1 testing), and brand voice to improve engagement.
Shared trend analysis on emerging competitor strategies and UGC impact, helping Assault Fitness prioritize high-converting content without major increases to production costs.
