Wellbeing Nutrition

Winning at the bottom of the funnel, then working upwards.

Wellbeing Nutrition sells to people who read labels before they read ads. We rebuilt the Meta creative around that, starting with the buyers already closest to purchase and carrying what won back up the funnel.

The Client

A supplement brand whose buyers already know the category.

Wellbeing Nutrition is a D2C nutrition brand built around time-release delivery rather than bigger doses.

A portfolio of products carried the spend here, spanning sleep and magnesium, gut health, hydration, fibre, collagen, children's nutrition, skin health, seasonal wellness and metabolic support. Each product came with its own mechanism, consumer concern and reason to believe.

The buyer is not a beginner. They compare ingredients, understand product formats and turn the pack around before they add to cart. That one fact is what the whole creative programme was built on.

The Challenge

The creative was written for someone discovering the category.

The audience buying the product had left that stage a long time ago. Ads opened on mood and closed on a discount, and the mechanism that justifies the price sat in the small print or nowhere at all.

A

Everyone saw the same message

A shopper who had viewed a product page three times got the same ad as someone who had never heard of the brand.

B

The reason to pay more was missing

Three forms of magnesium, eight hour release, triglyceride absorption. All of it real, none of it on the creative.

C

Testing needs volume

Without enough variants in market there was nothing to read, and the pipeline could not produce them fast enough.

D

Claims are regulated

Supplements sit close to a line. Copy kept drifting into territory Meta rejects and ASCI acts on, which cost days in rework.

Our Approach

We started at the end of the funnel and worked backwards.

Most creative programmes start with reach and hope intent turns up later. We inverted it. Win with the people already close to buying, find out what moves them, then take that upward into colder audiences.

01

Start where the intent already is

The first wave went in front of retargeting and high-intent audiences on Meta only. Small audiences, fast reads, and no budget spent on people still deciding whether they care about magnesium at all.

02

Mechanism over mood

For this buyer the differentiator is how the product works. Three magnesium forms released over eight hours. Omega-3 in the form fish actually make. Sweetness from fruit instead of sugar. Every bottom of funnel creative leads with one of those and nothing else.

03

One consumer need against one clear reason to consider

Each creative focused on a specific consumer need, objection or product differentiator, then gave the audience a clear reason to consider the product. The approach kept the message focused rather than trying to make every creative say everything at once.

04

Give every product its own entry point

The creative did not follow one fixed format across the portfolio. Some products led with a question, others with an objection, a benefit, a mechanism or a familiar consumer situation. The common thread was simple: find the strongest entry point for that product and make the reason to consider it immediately clear.

05

Compliance written into the brief

No disease claims. No addressing the reader's body. No before and after, and never a child shown as a result. Kids creative speaks to the parent. Every claim traces back to something already cleared. Writing inside the rules is faster than redrawing a rejected ad.

The Work

A portfolio of products. A different creative angle for each.

The creative system translated each product's mechanism, benefit or consumer objection into a distinct static built for Meta. Rather than forcing one formula across the portfolio, each creative was shaped around what gave that particular product a reason to be considered.

Skin Fuel

The easiest step in your skincare routine

The creative positions Skin Fuel as an uncomplicated addition to an everyday routine, pairing the product with three clear benefits: glowing skin, reduced pigmentation and a refreshing blueberry flavour.

Melts (Gut)

Bloating isn't normal.

The headline leads with a familiar consumer concern, while the creative immediately follows with the product's gut-focused benefits, including digestive support, gut microbiome balance and bowel regularity.

Triple Magnesium Complex

There's sleep. And then there's deep sleep.

The visual uses an exaggerated dreamlike setting to communicate the product's sleep proposition, while the supporting benefit points make the role of Triple Magnesium Complex clear.

Hydrasalt

Hydrated, but still drained?

The question creates the tension, while electrolytes and three supporting benefits, energy support, muscle function and reduced fatigue, provide the reason to consider Hydrasalt.

Daily Fibre

Salad isn't enough fibre.

The creative uses a familiar food cue to introduce Daily Fibre and its 17 superfoods, with satiety and bowel function positioned as the key supporting benefits.

Marine Collagen

Skincare Works Outside. Collagen Works Within.

The visual metaphor gives the product a clear point of difference, while the supporting claims focus on signs of ageing, skin hydration and skin elasticity.

Sea Buckthorn

Changing weather makes you sick?

The Himalayan setting and sea buckthorn imagery create an immediate seasonal context, while antioxidant, immune and digestive support give the product multiple reasons to enter the consideration set.

Sugar? Not in this scoop. View full size →
Kids Superfuel

Because "I'll eat later" isn't always an option.

The creative speaks to the parent rather than the child, using a relatable moment to position Kids Superfuel as an easy way to make every scoop count.

Super nutrition. Super childhood. View full size →
Berberine

Your metabolism is the bottleneck for your weight loss.

The creative pairs the problem statement with Liposomal Berberine HCl and supporting benefits around hormonal and metabolic health and cravings.

Results

The bottom got cheaper, then the rest followed.

Winning against high intent first meant the cheaper purchases were paying for the reach long before prospecting had to justify itself.

Net effect: cheaper purchases at the bottom paid for the reach at the top, and the mechanism lines that won on retargeting became the prospecting hooks.

The Outcome

A creative system, not a run of ads.

The system is repeatable without becoming repetitive. Each product starts with its strongest mechanism, benefit, objection or consumer need, then turns that insight into a focused creative proposition. The result is a portfolio of ads that feels connected at the brand level while giving every product its own reason to be considered.

Claims are checked before the brief is written rather than after the ad is rejected, which is what lets the pipeline run at pace without the legal drag.

Because it starts with the buyers closest to purchase, the programme pays for itself before it is asked to scale. The winners earn their way up the funnel instead of being guessed at from the top.
