Overview
Nine-figure bootstrapped activewear brand built from founder Heidi Somers’ passion project into a D2C powerhouse. With fierce Millennial loyalty established through authentic founder-led marketing, Buffbunny Collection needed strategic consumer intelligence to expand into Gen Z fitness enthusiasts without diluting their core brand identity or alienating existing customers. When organic growth success creates strategic challenges, consumer research becomes the foundation for sustainable multi-generational expansion.
When your nine-figure brand was built without outside investors, every strategic move must generate sustainable returns. We delivered generational intelligence that protects organic growth investments while unlocking expansion opportunities.
Our focus groups revealed Gen Z weightlifters prioritize performance over versatility, authenticity over trends, and community connection over product features alone—insights that repositioned the entire brand approach.
Let’s create something
amazing together.
