From £256 to £297,128 in shop GMV, driven by creators.

This shop was live but barely selling. A few hundred pounds of GMV in a month, no creator program to speak of, and no system to recruit, brief or retain affiliates. The product was good; nobody was talking about it.

The challenge

This shop was live but barely selling. A few hundred pounds of GMV in a month, no creator program to speak of, and no system to recruit, brief or retain affiliates. The product was good; nobody was talking about it.

What we did

We rebuilt the shop around creators. Hero product selected, commissions restructured, and creators recruited from our database and matched to the category. A dedicated Discord community kept creators briefed with hooks that were converting, approved claims and challenges. Winning videos were identified quickly and their angles shared across the community so new creators ramped faster.

Why it worked

Creator-attributed GMV made up the majority of the growth, which is exactly what a working creator engine looks like: more creators posting, learning from each other's winning videos, and concentrating on the product that sells.
