Strategic Content Buckets That Guide the Fan Journey

Strategic Content Buckets That Guide the Fan Journey

We built content with the full funnel in mind, from first scroll to diehard devotion.


  • Top of Funnel: Viral-ready reels, aesthetic "pingis porn," and hooks to grab attention (some peaking at 5M+ views).


  • Middle of Funnel: Skill tutorials, behind-the-scenes content, and personality-led stories that built deeper relationships.

  • Bottom of Funnel: Product features and a STIGA broadcast channel that gave fans a reason to stay and shop.

THE TAKEAWAY

Behind The Work

Behind The Work

We called this a 6.5/10 performance — not because it underperformed, but because it proved there’s even more runway. The system is in place, the fans are growing, and the next phase is about scaling the wins.
