How a fast-growing DTC apparel brand shipped video for every weekly drop instead of just the hero pieces.
A DTC apparel brand launching a new capsule collection every week could only afford a full video shoot for the two or three hero pieces each drop, leaving the remaining fifteen to twenty SKUs with photos only. Those un-videoed SKUs converted at a noticeably lower rate and drove a larger share of size-related returns. The one-person content team simply couldn't shoot and edit video for every item on a weekly cadence.
The team connected Velo to their Shopify catalog. As each new SKU is listed, Velo builds a short product video from the listing images and copy, narrated in the brand's cloned voice, styled with the current campaign's look. The content lead reviews and approves each batch in under twenty minutes, and every SKU in the drop now launches with video, not just the hero pieces.
