Finding new angles for an established sandals brand

As an established sandals brand, you must continuously test new angles to defend your market share and reach new customers. Don't rely solely on what worked in the past. Use a managed content network to test diverse video variations, from new lifestyle contexts to feature-focused demos, in parallel. This high-volume, organic approach identifies growth opportunities quickly, ensuring your marketing remains relevant and highly effective.

The problem

Sandals brand, established: finding new winning angles takes too long.

01

The risk of relying on past hits

What worked two years ago might not work today. Consumer interests change, and competitors are always trying new things. For an established brand, the biggest risk is becoming stale. You need to keep testing to see what the next big growth angle is. Relying on your history is safe, but it is also limiting. You need a systematic way to test new messages to ensure you are capturing the next generation of customers while keeping your existing base engaged.

02

A systematic approach to evolution

Treat every new seasonal campaign as an opportunity to test new messages. Use different video styles to highlight different aspects of your sandals. Maybe this year, the angle is sustainability. Next year, it might be extreme comfort. By testing these angles through a high-volume channel, you gather the data you need to pivot your strategy effectively. This makes your brand more resilient because you are always learning and adapting rather than just repeating what you did before.

03

Scaling your testing engine

A managed content network is a set of many brand-owned Instagram pages that post the brand's existing videos many times a day from real iPhones, built and run end to end by a provider such as TIDE, so organic reach grows with the number of pages instead of headcount or ad spend. This gives you a massive, automated testing machine that you can use to validate new marketing angles across various demographics, ensuring your brand stays fresh and relevant without the need for manual setup.

04

Collaborating for success

Work with your provider to set up a regular testing calendar. Provide them with a variety of content that explores new angles for your sandals. Review the performance metrics closely each month. Use the winning angles to inform your broader brand strategy and your paid advertising creatives. This keeps your brand at the cutting edge, turning your organic network into a powerful tool for strategic discovery that keeps you ahead of competitors and in tune with your customers.
