About Ava & Bloom

Ava & Bloom is a clean skincare startup focused on hormone-safe, fragrance-free products for women with sensitive skin. Popular across Gen Z and millennial segments, the brand scaled fast via influencer marketing.

However, Meta performance declined once top creators saturated their audiences. Their lean marketing team struggled to launch fresh, high-converting ad creatives consistently. Agency retainers weren't ROI-positive, and freelancers lacked brand voice consistency.

"They needed a performance layer that could create, test, and learn—automatically."

The Challenge

By late Q4, Ava & Bloom faced several headwinds that threatened their growth trajectory. They needed a new system for high-velocity, high-relevance ad creative—and a way to get it live in under 24 hours.

Declining ROAS on Meta & TikTok as top ads fatigued
Creator dependency, but no budget left for UGC studios
Limited testing bandwidth—launching 2–3 ads/week max
Low repeat rate on new customer cohorts from paid
Slow turnaround—took 7–10 days to brief, shoot, edit ads
