Case study/Bakery & food

From losing money on ads to a consistent 3.5× return on ad spend.

We rebuilt Impossible Foods’ advertising around the right customers, so every rupee spent on ads now comes back three and a half times.

  • 3.5×return on ad spend, consistently
  • < 1×where it started
  • 3×sales from local ads and promotions

Some of the work

  • Impossible Foods ad: ready for a flavour explosion? Masala buns
  • Impossible Foods ad: packed with 24 spices for a fiery taste

01 · The client

Who they are

Impossible Foods bakes organic sourdough and artisan breads with no sugar, oil or preservatives, sold online and through stores in Mumbai. Their ads were bringing traffic, but every sale cost more than it made.

02 · The challenge

What was in the way

  • A negative return on ad spend: each rupee in ads brought back less than a rupee.
  • Broad targeting that reached people who would never buy organic sourdough.
  • Creative that looked like everyone else’s food ads.

03 · Our recommendation

What we recommended, and why

We stopped paying for attention and started paying for customers. That meant narrowing the audience to people already buying healthier food, making creative about the product’s real difference, and moving budget weekly to what sold.

  1. 01Audiences built around health-conscious, local buyers.
  2. 02Product-led creative: the spices, the bake, the ingredients.
  3. 03Weekly budget moves based on return, not clicks.

04 · Delivery

What we delivered

  • A full ad account restructure and audience strategy.
  • Creative and copy for product promotions.
  • Weekly optimisation and plain-language reporting.

05 · Results

What changed

  • 3.5×return on ad spend, held consistently.
  • 3×sales from local ads and product promotions.
