The Challenge

Launching a new program in the wellness space requires more than a strong offer—it requires deep trust. The Lean for Life program was competing in a saturated coaching market dominated by “quick-fix” promises and unrealistic claims.

Evolve needed a campaign that:

  • Cut through the noise
  • Built credibility fast
  • And delivered ROI on a lean budget

The entire funnel had to be clear, honest, emotionally grounded, and built for performance.

The Strategy

Story-Driven
Messaging

We built creative that centered on energy, empowerment, and sustainable wellness.

Real transformation, told clearly.

Multi-Channel Paid Media System

We launched a cross-platform setup including:

  • Meta ads
  • Google ads
  • YouTube

Conversion-First
Funnel

The funnel was intentionally simple, with a clear landing page, a strong value proposition, relevant CTAs, A/B tested creatives, and low-friction opt-in pathways.

Performance
Optimization

We continuously tested creative angles, messaging, and audiences.

This tightened the cost-per-click and dramatically increased CTR which lead to high return on ad spend.

Strategic Wins

Evolve Energy Tribe needed proof of concept, not just impressions. We engineered a lean, strategic funnel that validated demand and positioned Lean for Life as a trustworthy alternative within a market crowded with unrealistic claims.

By combining storytelling with precise targeting and under-budget efficiency, the campaign built momentum quickly, and proved the program had long-term scalability.

Creative Storytelling

Wellness marketing is saturated with hype. Instead, we built creative that felt human.

Messaging focused on real energy, real shifts in daily life, and the emotional clarity women seek.

The creative was grounded, empowering, cinematic, and honest – exactly what the Evolve Energy Tribe community responds to.

Performance Marketing

With multi-channel paid media in place, we optimized for maximum return on a limited budget.

Facebook ads produced a 6.31% CTR, outperforming wellness benchmarks by 7×. YouTube pre-roll delivered ultra-affordable awareness at just $7 CPM.

Across all channels, Lean for Life achieved a 25× ROAS, validating the funnel and establishing a repeatable growth model.

Performance marketing didn’t just elevate the story, it turned it into measurable revenue.
