The wider menu

The full Butterfly capability set.

The plan we proposed for Kroma leans on a specific slice of what Butterfly does. This page is the rest of the menu. If a thread here is more useful than the one we picked, pull on it and we'll talk.

What we do

Six capability areas. Mix and match.

Butterfly is a small, vertically integrated studio — strategy, brand, loyalty, growth, creative, and advisory under one roof. We work with founder-led brands across wellness, lifestyle, and consumer where the next move depends on getting brand and commerce right at the same time.

01

Brand Strategy & Positioning

Voice · IP · Architecture

The decisions upstream of every execution: positioning, narrative, brand voice, identity architecture. Built so the brand stays coherent from founder letter to product page to wholesale deck.

  • Positioning and competitive frame
  • Brand voice and narrative system
  • Identity architecture and naming
  • Brand book and design language
02

Loyalty & Ecosystem Design

Membership · Partners · Trust

Modern loyalty isn't a points program. It's an ecosystem of shared value across products, partners, and community. We design loyalty layers that turn customers into participants and partners into co-builders.

  • Loyalty architecture and tier design
  • Member benefits and partner integrations
  • Practitioner and clinic ecosystems
  • Token-optional infrastructure (Base, NCTR Alliance)
03

Growth & Commerce Systems

DTC · Retention · AI commerce

The conversion craft and the plumbing. DTC funnel mechanics, retention and lifecycle, structured product data, and AI-commerce readiness — including the emerging agentic layer where shoppers are starting to delegate the buy.

  • DTC funnel and conversion mechanics
  • Lifecycle, CRM, and retention systems
  • Structured product data for AI and agents
  • Marketplace and channel strategy
04

Creative Studio

Campaign · Content · Production

Campaign, content, and creative production engineered to make the strategy legible. We design the work and oversee the craft — copy, art direction, photography, film — so what reaches the customer matches what's in the brand book.

  • Campaign concepting and creative direction
  • Founder content and editorial programs
  • Photography, film, and production oversight
  • Social, influencer, and partner activations
05

Innovation & System Extension

Product · Format · Partnership

How a brand's core system extends into new products, formats, and partner builds. Useful when the question is less "what should we say" and more "what should we build next, and with whom."

  • System-extension and product roadmap
  • Hospitality, clinic, and practitioner builds
  • Co-brand and category-adjacent partnerships
  • Pilot design and 90-day proofs
06

Advisory & Capital

Counsel · Intros · Venture

Founder-level counsel and a real network. When the work is right, we can also bring in-kind investment or warm introductions to the venture and strategic investors who already know the categories we work in.

  • Founder and board-level strategic counsel
  • In-kind investment for select ventures
  • Warm intros to VC, PE, and strategic investors
  • Operator network across wellness and lifestyle
How we're set up

One studio, not five agencies.

Most of these capabilities live in separate places at most companies. Holding them in one team is the point. Strategy informs creative, creative informs commerce, commerce informs the next strategic move. The work moves at the speed of one team, and the brand stays coherent end to end.

The wider network we move with.

We partner deeply rather than building everything in-house. A short list of who's regularly in the room with us:

Technology

Shopify, Klaviyo, Base, NCTR Alliance, structured-data and AI tooling partners.

Creative & production

A bench of photographers, filmmakers, copywriters, and producers we've worked with for years.

Operator network

Founders, advisors, and category operators across wellness, hospitality, and lifestyle who open doors faster than cold outreach ever will.
