You know when you search online for something like a wallet and suddenly your feed is filled with wallet rank? Those are called catalog ads and most of them are just boring flat lays. But Ridge did something different. They partnered with a tool called Marpipe to turn catalog ads into their biggest growth better. And the results were wild. A 53% increase in ROAS.

Ridge realized they could win new customers at the exact moment when they're shopping. This is proof that you don't need crazy ideas to build a million dollar business. Sometimes you just need better execution. If you wanna understand how catalog ads could work for you, come at Ridge and I'll send you the details.
