The task

BioCycle Labs builds Black Soldier Fly and modular waste-treatment technology for European farms. Their value proposition was technical and research-heavy, and farm operators could not act on it.

What we did

Researched EU sustainability trends, waste-to-resource technology and competitors
Mapped partners across research institutions, industry and technology providers
Rewrote the homepage and core pages around lower emissions, better waste processing and valuable by-products
Built an SEO page structure and a series of LinkedIn articles
What we learned

In deep tech, turning research into language a buyer can act on is the main marketing task.

The task

Alex needed a LinkedIn presence that matched the weight of his work, instead of another generic thought-leader feed.

What we did

Built his personal brand around one thesis: most startups need a reality check, not funding
Defined content pillars from his own expertise
Rewrote his profile and About section around that thesis
What we learned

One clear point of view works better than a broad content calendar. His three best posts each made a clear, arguable claim.

The task

Three Instagram accounts for the Netherlands, France and Europe were posting about 29 times a month each, yet over 90 days they gained a combined net of −4 followers. The brand needed one voice across Dutch, French and international audiences, without the content reading like a translation.

What we did

One master content calendar, adapted per market
Tone-of-voice guide for Dutch and French audiences
One visual system across all three accounts
Carousels for stories, Reels for product and behind the scenes
What we learned

One brand core scales across markets better than three separate strategies, as long as the tone-of-voice guide handles the local differences.

The task

An international show jumping team based in the UAE wanted to promote its brand through the team account and the head coach’s personal Instagram. Goals: attract a new audience, develop the team and coach brands, attract sponsors and build loyalty.

What we did

Content around team life and behind-the-scenes access
Merchandise stories tied to the team identity
Tested engagement formats over a two-month sprint
Kept the plan running through Ramadan in April, when the team’s schedule changed and figures dipped
What we learned

One tested plan for both accounts built more recognition than two separate strategies would have.
