Situation
Struggling for Authentic Content

Struggling with location-specific video content

In-house videos had repetitive faces and places

Failed to authentically represent first-time impressions
West Coast Fitness, a leading franchisee of Orangetheory Fitness, was facing challenges with its Paid Acquisition team. Specifically, they struggled to generate location-specific videos that could be used for their paid social media efforts. Their initial approach involved creating in-house video content for TikTok ads. However, this method presented two significant problems: the videos featured the same people and shoot locations, which lacked diversity, and they couldn't authentically convey first-time impressions and feedback on the workout. This situation led the team to seek a more efficient solution to diversify their video content.
