01
The challenge
where they started
Bramble had two busy cafés and loyal regulars, but online orders were flat. The feed was latte art and opening hours: 3.1K followers, Reels that rarely passed 1K views, and no link between posting and sales.
02
What we did
the playbook
We filmed one morning a week at the roastery and built three formats: the 15-second pour, the roaster’s pick and behind-the-bar Q&As. Regulars became the cast, and every Reel in launch month pointed to one product, the autumn blend.
03
The results
where they are now
The launch Reel reached 980K views and drove 41 orders in a single day. The blend sold out in nine days with no paid spend, online sales hit $64K for the quarter, and Bramble finished at 38K followers.

“We used to post when we remembered. Now one morning a week gives us a month of Reels, and the orders follow.”
