Squatch Survival Gear builds American-made packs for first responders, wildland firefighters and serious outdoorsmen. The gear was never the problem. Nobody could find it.

Where they started

A great product,
invisible.

Squatch had a loyal niche and a genuinely overbuilt product — Berry Compliant materials, built in the USA, the kind of pack that makes every other pack you've owned feel disposable. What it didn't have was any digital infrastructure at all. No functioning funnel, no brand voice on paper, no consistent publishing, no paid media, no way to recover an abandoned cart.

In November 2025 the site drew 178 sessions for the entire month — roughly 20 a day.

What we built

Eight deliverables.
One system.

Website rebuild

Rebuilt for conversion, not decoration — product pages, capture points, clean purchase tracking.

Brand voice guide

Mission, audience, tone, and a word bank pulled straight from the founder's own language.

Social management

346 posts across Facebook and Instagram on a fixed cadence from Feb 21 forward.

CTV commercial

Produced and bought on connected TV. 8,921 households reached.

Meta ads funnel

Full funnel launched April 24 — prospecting, retargeting, cart recovery.

Sales sequences

Three email/SMS sequences live inside 30 days, including abandoned-cart recovery.

Affiliate program

Built from zero. First partner signed and active May 2026.

Trade show collateral

Print and booth assets so the brand held up off-screen too.

In their words

For the last nine years, I have dumped probably close to 15K into digital marketing… and it’s never converted to a sale. At least not a trackable sale… Last night was the first time. We ran this ad, it generated this sale.

Where it goes next

Still running.

The engagement didn't end at delivery. Current work in flight: Klaviyo abandoned-cart and welcome flows to close the gap between checkouts started and orders completed, segmented campaigns to the highest-value customer tier, and continued paid optimization against cost-per-add-to-cart.

That's the difference between a project and a system. The project ships. The system compounds.
