🔃Case Study Thread- Nuggs

How Nuggs went from 0$ to m$ in just a year selling vegan nuggets with an INSANE branding & Marketing strategy.

Let's study their Brand, marketing strategy, Website/CRO, and their ad creatives.

👇Mega Thread👇 Image
Some facts about Nuggs:

- The brand was created just a year ago and already has a great success.
- Their marketing strategy and branding are incredible.
- CEO is a 20 years guy who sold a company at 18.
- The product is far from being perfect
- 100% DTC & going on stores soon.
1. What is Nuggs ?

Nuggs is a DTC brand that sells vegan nuggets.

Their nuggets are gluten-free unlike of their competitors , and contain more proteins and fewer calories than regular nuggets.

ps: I don't care about their nuggets, I am just interested in the business side. Image
➡️Nuggs vs competitors

Unlike other vegan brands, they don't market themselves as a brand that sells products exclusively for vegans. They target everyone.

They don't want to be seen as "a vegan alternative to chicken nuggets", they want to be seen as the best nuggets. Image
➡️Very unique branding

I can't really define precisely Nuggs personality precisely but I would say it's a mix between fun, memes, innovation, and "tech startup".

I invite you to check their website and Instagram to have a better idea.
➡️Humor / fun / Tesla comparison

- "The Tesla of Chicken"

- "Nuggs vs NASA"

- "Send Nudes/Nuggs"

- 10 000$ offer "you don't need this"

- Check their Instagram also, lot of memes (i will talk about it later). Image
➡️Innovation/tech

They use a lot of "tech" and "innovation" vocabulary like tech startups do and Saas.

They emphasize a lot the fact that they are a "technology" company, not a regular food company.

-"Advanced technology"

-"Hyper-realistic simulation"

-"2.0"

-"Engineered" Image
They even have a releases/updates page like Saas/tech companies do.

It's also a way to show that it's not the final version of the product, that it gets better, and it pushes people to order again.

Funny to see people every single version of nuggs even if they don't like it Image
2 - The website and conversion rate optimization.

Their website is incredibly well branded (text/visuals), smooth, and optimized for conversion.

Nothing crazy in terms of CRO, but works well.

Go visit their website. I am sure you will find some inspiration.
➡️"Try it out" over "Buy now" button

"Try it out" suggest a new and unique experience, something never done before.

It makes people more curious about testing the product.

Same as Magicspoon if you remember. Image
➡️Split price pricing strategy + Discount.

People are more likely to take the 44.99$ offer because it seems much more valuable compare to the first one.

Why?

-Color contrast in red + bigger square

-The offer seems more valuable with the discount + price divided into "/meals" Image
➡️Sicky "Buy now" button on the product page to direct checkout.

It's nothing crazy of course, but I think it is just very nicely done.

It's impossible to miss the CTA with the color contrast and the way it's displayed"

Very nicely done on mobile too. Image
➡️Classic but powerful product page structure (AIDA).

1 - Most valuable information at the firsts seconds: Price, discount, cta, Free US shipping in bold.

2 - Features + competitors comparison + "the secret formula"

3 - Tech specs

4- Reviews

5- CTA clickable at any moment Image
3 - Social media marketing strategy

➡️Paid influencers and organic videos on Youtube.

They mostly work with Youtube influencers.

Vegans and also non-vegans. Image
➡️ Branded content and memes/viral on Instagram.

Their engagement on Instagram is absolutely insane.
Sometimes 6k likes (reals) for 52k Followers.

They do it only by posting branded memes and funny posts.

I believe they hired someone just for creating& posting memes on insta Image
➡️Very active community on Instagram posting a lot of content (ucg)

They also have a very active community of people posting a lot of videos of themselves eating nuggs.

-A lot of UCG content

-Organic traffic. Image
➡️They are also active on Tik Tok (i download twitter just for this)

I am not going to really comment on anything since I know nothing about this social media.

12.5k subscribers, 476K likes.

I don't really know how it's possible but this video got 4.3M views and 458k likes.
4 - Ads and creatives

I don't think a huge part of their traffic comes from Facebook ads but anyway, their creatives are really great.
AD 1 : This ad made me discover the brand.

-Catches the attention at first seconds because unusual

-Epic music, suggests a "new experience"

-good color contrast, and vocabulary like "perfectly crisp" "amazingly juicy"

-The ad generates curiosity, interest, and it's absurd
AD 2: Same as the AD 1 but with different music styles and different purposes.

This ad is probably retargeting people who already bought nuggs before.

It introduces the "V.2"
AD 3: The social proof UCG ad.

This one is targeting only vegans.

-Catches the attention at the first seconds "sorry to my vegan community"

-Nice and dynamic montage (video & audio)

-Social proof
AD 3: Great Retargeting ad.

I am adding this one because I think a very good example of a retargeting ad that gets people to take action.

It makes the buying/shipping process look easy, fast, and painless. Same for the nuggs preparation.
That's it for Nuggs !

I've helped dozens of Supplements/Wellness brands increase their conversions.

Hundreds of thousands of extra revenue generated.

Here are 10 strategies I've used to increase their AOV & CRO :

(with visuals & examples)
1/ Optimize product images gallery

You shouldn't have only beautiful pictures of your product in your image gallery but also ones that highlight :

- Product benefits
- ingredients info
- Testimonials
- How to use
- Badges / social proof Image
2/ Optimize the Above the fold

+70% of visitors will leave your pages without even scrolling.

That’s why you should optimize the above the fold and add :

- Social proof (stars/badges)
- Headline/Product name
- Optimized image gallery

All these elements in one screen. Image

+80% of your visitors leave your products page just after a few seconds and 2/3 scrolls maximum

That's why optimizing these 2 sections is crucial for conversions :

➡️Above the fold (top of the page/First screen)
➡️The Buy Box (variations/ATC section)

1 bad & 1 Good example 🧵: Image
Umbo vs Mojo

1/ The Header

❌Text on the top bar is not visible enough. the background color doesn't make the text stand out

✅Takes 10-20% of the screen. For the top bar, fire mojis and the gradient background color make the text more visible
2/ The Product images

❌Images are good but the image thumbnails takes way too much space on the screen. less space for important info

✅ Great product images that make the product look super fancy and tasty. Increase the perceived value
+ other images highlight the benefits

#3 Landing page example - Solave

This page is one of the top landing pages used by Solave for paid FB ads (probably generated hundreds of thousands $)

Let's break down each section ⬇️🧵: Image
1/ Above the fold (top of the page)

No mention of price and no ATC button.

Before trying to sell, Solawe warms up the visitor.

-Strong Headline/subheadline
-Trust elements (review stars, trust badges)
-no menu/navigation. less distractions Image
2. Benefits section

1- Short product description, with persuasive copy and more credibility/social proof. "2 award-winning..."

2-Benefits. short Simple with branded icons.
no long bullet points list Image

1 / The video Sales LDP

Video sales pages are not very popular in Ecommerce but some brands are absolutely crushing it using them

Haircity almost only uses video Sales pages with +20 minutes videos and they made millions $ from FB ads

Sometimes Good sales video > good copy Image

Blissy generated +$100M in revenue in less than 3 years of existence. With no external funding.

A big part of their success comes from their Landing page/CRO strategy. They're one of the best out there

Here are 5 of their top landing pages (for paid traffic):
First of all, it's important to note that they don't use any classic product page for paid traffic.

They're always testing presales pages but the product LDP and Checkout stay the same.

Here is what it looks like:
1/ The listicle LDP with "What makes Blissy the most popular pillowcase in the world" headline.

Angle pushed is "anti-aging"

This one is currently their most used LDP.
