The Brief!

Ridge Wallet's creative was performing well with millennials but failing to resonate with Gen Z consumers. They needed a creative refresh that felt native to younger audiences without alienating their core demo.

The Challenge!

The existing ad creative felt too corporate for Gen Z. Engagement rates among 18-24 year olds were 70% lower than the 25-34 demo. The brand needed to feel authentic on TikTok and Instagram Reels.

Ridge Wallet approach

The Approach!

Conducted extensive audience research on Gen Z aesthetics and communication styles. Developed a new visual language—raw textures, bold typography, meme-adjacent humor—while preserving Ridge's premium positioning. Created platform-native content that felt organic rather than advertised.

The Results!

CTR among Gen Z increased 62%. Overall social engagement jumped 145%. The campaign generated $1.2M in incremental revenue from the 18-24 demographic in Q1.
