Harmonizing Ads and Aesthetics: The Fast + Light Formula for Werk Dancewear
The dream for Werk Dancewear started with Maggie, a yoga instructor and mom who wanted better dancewear for her daughter, Kara. Maggie needed fashion that could hold up to the rigor of Kara’s dance classes, conventions, master classes, and long rehearsals while being easy on the wallet. Kara, on the other hand, wanted clothing that provided fluid comfort and contemporary style. Maggie knows firsthand how hard it can be to find dancewear that checks all of the boxes for both dance moms and their daughters.
Before engaging with F+L, Werk had engaged with several agencies, with uneven results. Werk wanted profitability, stability, and growth, along with solid communication and a supportive relationship that extended beyond just paid media.
When Fast + Light started Werk Dancewear's paid ads had sunk below a 1X ROAS. Werk is currently at a 4-5X ROAS depending on the seasonal release cycle.
