The problem

Great beans, but the account was stuck. Most followers were other coffee people two countries away — lovely, but they were never going to walk in or order a bag.

The result

Bag subscriptions doubled, and two local cafés got in touch about wholesale after finding the account — the first time Instagram had ever brought in a trade lead.

What we did

  1. 1We targeted the followers of cafés, brunch spots and food accounts in their own city and region.
  2. 2Daily, human engagement so local people in the niche kept seeing the roastery pop up.
  3. 3Welcome DM with a first-order discount for anyone nearby.

We'd tried the cheap follower thing years ago and it did nothing but embarrass us. This was the opposite — quiet, steady, and the people are actually local.
