The Challenge

What they were
struggling with.

Drive Trial Subscriptions
Generate qualified leads through exclusive discount codes and UTM tracking for measurable ROI on a subscription product.
Build Brand Awareness
Expand reach to dog owners seeking premium fresh food alternatives to traditional kibble in a highly competitive pet food market.
Establish Credibility
Leverage authentic influencer testimonials to build trust in PetPlate quality — new parents and pet owners are highly skeptical of new brands.
