Cycling · Global consumer brand

Giant Bicycles

Giant is the largest bicycle manufacturer in the world. As the category shifted toward social-first discovery and paid acquisition, Giant needed a partner who could both shape the strategy and execute against it across multiple international properties.

Challenge§ 01

What was actually broken.

Giant was shifting its marketing mix to put significantly more weight on social and paid digital — across both US and Global accounts — but lacked the strategic + tactical capacity to do it well in-house.

  • / 01

    Strategic mix was tilting harder toward social and paid digital — both US and Global — faster than in-house capacity could absorb.

  • / 02

    Multiple regional pages, multiple product lines, and multiple buyer segments (road, MTB, e-bike, lifestyle).

  • / 03

    Needed measurable accountability against brand AND sales goals, not just impressions.

What I did§ 02

The approach, step by step.

/ 01

Strategic consulting first

Defined the new channel mix, audience model, and measurement framework before touching the ad accounts.

/ 02

Hands-on tactical execution

Took live ownership of US and Global pages — content calendar, creative production, paid media, community.

/ 03

Earn additional pages

As US and Global hit goals, additional pages were folded into scope. Growth was earned, not pitched.

/ 04

Brand AND sales accountability

Reporting tied creative work to both brand health metrics and direct sales contribution — no hiding behind vanity numbers.

Outcome§ 03

What changed.

Scope and ad budget expanded considerably year-over-year on the back of measurable results. Trusted partner against brand and sales goals.

Responsibility and ad budget expanded considerably year-over-year.

Result · 02

Result · 03

Endorsed as a trusted strategic + tactical partner against brand and sales goals.
