Mankind, lifestyle B2C on WooCommerce, AI-accelerated creative.
Mankind is an Australian lifestyle brand selling direct to consumers on WooCommerce.
Mankind: creative production, Meta acquisition and Klaviyo retention on WooCommerce.
The creative pipeline is built on a locked brand chassis: design tokens, colour palette, typography, a photography-style envelope and a layout system, in templates designed to survive a creative refresh and hold the brand together across Meta, Klaviyo and the storefront.
Inside that chassis, variant production runs on Imagen, compressing the variant production cycle from days into hours, with senior creative direction on every output.
Meta paid social is the primary acquisition channel. Underneath it sits a server-side CAPI integration with deduplicated browser and server events and a consent-aware GA4 and GTM stack, and the iteration tempo is set by the creative cadence the variant pipeline can feed.
Klaviyo carries retention through the Klaviyo for WooCommerce plugin: welcome series, abandoned cart, post-purchase, win-back, sunset, VIP, and replenishment-aware flows where the catalogue supports them. Klaviyo-attributed revenue is reconciled back to actual WooCommerce orders.
The engagement covers the creative chassis and variant pipeline, the Meta programme and its measurement layer, and the Klaviyo lifecycle build.

Brand-aesthetic discipline + AI variant velocity.
Lifestyle B2C lives or dies on creative cadence. The brand has to feel coherent across Meta, Klaviyo, and storefront, and the creative library has to refresh fast enough to keep paid-media performance from decaying.
The bet on this engagement is that brand-aesthetic discipline (locked design tokens, senior creative direction) plus AI-accelerated variant production (Imagen within the chassis) lets a lifestyle B2C brand run a creative cadence that used to take a 5-person creative team, without sacrificing brand integrity.
WooCommerce as the storefront, Meta CAPI as the signal-quality layer, Klaviyo as the retention engine. The same operating model we run across the consumer book.
