💡 Insights

"Coffee subscription buyers on social platforms are decision-ready but convenience-driven. They respond strongest to discount offers during holiday periods when they're already in a purchasing mindset. The mobile-iOS user segment proved to be the most valuable—they convert faster, subscribe longer, and have higher average order values. The key was matching the right product variant (protein-enhanced) with the right audience (health-conscious, busy professionals) at the right time (holiday promotional periods)."

📌 Summary

By combining seasonal intelligence with mobile-first optimization and strategic discount positioning, we created a sustainable social media acquisition engine for the coffee subscription service. The campaign succeeded by identifying that iOS mobile users represented the highest-value customer segment, then doubling down on product variants (protein coffee) and messaging (convenience + health benefits) that resonated most with this audience during peak seasonal periods. Holiday promotional windows became reliable revenue accelerators, allowing for strategic ad spend increases that maintained strong ROI while capturing expanded market share.
