Stella Rosa is the #1 imported wine in America — but their flagship products were invisible to a younger generation discovering wine through creator culture. They needed a new audience without losing the one that built them.Our Objectives were:
1. Attract a younger demographic to Stella Rosa's flagship products. Expand beyond the brand's core audience by establishing a meaningful presence on TikTok and Instagram through culturally relevant creator partnerships and platform-native content.
2. Develop a distinct social media identity. Create a recognizable point of view and content style for Stella Rosa across platforms — one that felt modern and entertaining while honoring the brand's celebratory DNA.
3. Diversify the content approach. Build a content ecosystem spanning influencer partnerships, in-house produced comedic short-form content, and creator-driven pieces across multiple interest categories — cocktail culture, comedy, lifestyle, and seasonal moments — so the brand could reach different audiences without ever feeling repetitive.
The content pipeline
We built a content ecosystem spanning influencer partnerships, comedic in-house content, and a data-driven paid social strategy, giving Stella Rosa an ownable, culturally relevant voice across platforms.

Comedy that converted
Beyond influencer partnerships, Flavor Group produced original skit-style comedic content designed to give Stella Rosa a distinctive, ownable voice on social. This wasn't filler between influencer posts — it became one of the campaign's highest-performing content pillars. One skit-style ad alone has amassed 4M views, 56K likes, 1K comments, and 562 shares, averaging roughly 100 comments per week in sustained engagement — well above every other ad in the brand's portfolio. The comedy-driven approach proved that a wine brand could be genuinely funny on social media without undermining its premium positioning.

When RYZE Superfoods, one of the world's largest DTC brands hit the streets of New York City with a fully outfitted mobile coffee truck, they needed more than a presence. They needed a social strategy that would turn seven local pop-up events into a citywide cultural moment.Flavor Group partnered with RYZE's internal team to design and execute an integrated social strategy built around one core idea: every stop on the tour should feel just as alive online as it did on the street.
The approach
Working hand-in-hand with RYZE's internal social marketing team we developed and executed an integrated social strategy that brought the tour to life online.
1. Amplify every event digitally. Turn each stop on the tour into a content moment that brought the in-person energy to RYZE's online community — not as a recap, but as an extension of the experience itself.
2. Match the right voices to the right moments. Each event attracted a different audience. We needed an influencer strategy flexible enough to align wellness creators with a solstice yoga event, foodies with a festival, and music lovers with a concert series — all under one cohesive brand umbrella.
3. Build a content engine beyond influencer posts. We deployed production teams to capture original creative assets — testimonials, trending social formats, and unexpected brand moments — giving RYZE's team fuel for organic and paid channels long after the truck moved on.
The Results
For a DTC brand stepping into the physical world for the first time, the right social strategy doesn't just support a live tour — it multiplies it.

The design Overview
Flavor Group built Shiner Spirits' creative infrastructure from scratch, trade materials, sales tools, retail assets, sports partnership collateral, and a distinct graphic social persona that brings the brand identity to life. Add in original brand photography, and Shiner had everything it needed to hit the market looking like it had always belonged there.
Shinerfest
Shinerfest 2025 was bigger than ever — and Flavor Group was behind every piece of it. From strategy and consultation to execution, we handled the full promotional footprint of the event: posters, ticketing pages, ticket holder communications, t-shirt design, promotional reels, digital and out-of-home advertising, and influencer attendance. We also led creative for the historic opening of the K. Spoetzl Rickhouse and captured all content on the ground — making sure every moment of Shinerfest lived well beyond the weekend.
