Alaskan King Crab Co.
Creative Demand Model.

The model that sets October’s creative mix, and the thirty clusters that deliver it. Two hundred and forty built ads, 216 of them live in October, a persona on every one and a date on every one.

Read this first. The Model allocates October’s output across five persona lanes and five dated windows from what the account has proved. The Clusters deliver that allocation as thirty briefable units, each one a persona and an angle laddered across awareness. The Board is the same clusters on a zoomable canvas and the Calendar puts a kit date and a go-live date on every one. The floor is a floor, not a ceiling, and the proportions matter more than the count.

The build · 30 clusters

One idea,
told more than once,
to the same person.

That is a cluster. Not a single ad and not a single stage, but one persona and one angle built up the awareness ladder. Most run three or four rungs, the dated offers two or three. Thirty of them make October.
