Case study · Wondery / Amazon · YouTube, TikTok, Instagram

One episode a week, turned into something bigger.

The brief

Baby, This Is Keke Palmer had a great show, but little content supporting it. One full episode went up each week, with few clips or Shorts and barely any presence on TikTok or Instagram. The show needed a stronger content strategy to reach more viewers and keep them engaged.

My role

Content Manager on a five-person team with three editors. I ideated and concepted the videos, directed post-production, and helped shape the channel strategy and publishing plan.

The approach
  • Built a full content funnel around each weekly episode, producing 32 additional uploads a month across Shorts, clips, and compilations, all designed to drive viewers back to the full episode.
  • Simplified the thumbnails to be more scroll-friendly, using fewer elements, larger type, and cleaner shots of Keke and her guests.
  • Tailored our strategy to each platform: polished on YouTube and Instagram, more raw and high-volume on TikTok.
  • Developed weekly video concepts around performance data, trends, and pop-culture news, keeping the content feeling intentional and reactive rather than relying on a fixed formula.
  • Coordinated monthly on-site shoot days with Keke and her guests, creating original social-first content from idea to final deliverable.

Thumbnails

Cluttered thumbnails, cleaned up so you could read them at a glance.

The existing thumbnails needed work. The text was too small and awkwardly layered over the subjects. We simplified everything: bigger, cleaner type that holds up at thumbnail size and works better with the subject. The goal was for the thumbnail to tell you what the video was about before you even read the title.

SOCIAL APPROACH

Updated their socials to feel cohesive and like one brand

Their social presence felt disjointed. We took the show and gave it a more intentional presence across feeds, ideating videos around social trends, pop culture news, and performance data instead of just cutting clips and posting them. Each piece of content has more of a purpose, giving it a better shot at actually resonating with viewers. We also rebuilt the visual identity, updating Reels and TikTok thumbnails so all posts read as one brand.

Short-form content also needed a platform-specific approach. Instagram and YouTube Shorts favored a more polished edit, but TikTok viewers cared less about a refined edit. On TikTok volume is king, so we leaned into that. Since TikTok needed less post-production, we could push out far more content.

Before
After
The insight

One episode can go a lot further.

A weekly podcast only gives you one chance a week to get discovered. Our strategy was built around making each episode work across more formats and platforms, giving viewers more ways to discover the show. Every clip, Short, and compilation opens another door into that same episode, each carrying its own thumbnail, its own title, its own shot at the algorithm. We gave people more ways to find it. 

Proof

With the support of out team, the Baby, This Is Keke Palmer podcast has seen organic viewership surge of +327% relative to the previous season.

Getting a cult show its biggest premiere yet.

The brief

Yellowjackets has a devoted but impatient audience. Season 3 arrived after a long wait, which meant the campaign had two jobs: remind returning viewers what they loved and raise overall awareness for new audiences.

My role

Content & account manager. I owned content strategy, creative direction, post-production, our publishing schedule, and day-to-day client contact.

The approach
  • Designed the campaign and content rollout around two audiences: cut-downs and BTS to pull returning fans back into the story, trailers and Shorts to reach people who'd never watched.
  • Adjusted strategy as community feedback and data came in. Created reactive videos based on social trends, and shaped content around what fans were saying in the comments and what was already performing, tracking which topics, characters, and moments people responded to.
  • Directed the post-production team, keeping a three-person crew delivering high-quality work at volume on tight turnarounds.

Approach

Four content pillars, each doing a different job.

Each pillar targeted a different part of the audience: returning viewers, core fans, and people who'd never watched.

01 Season 2 library

Standalone moments cut from existing footage to rebuild the habit and re-enter the algorithm early.

02 Recaps

Catch-up content for lapsed viewers. Lowering the cost of coming back after two years away.

03 Behind the scenes

Cast and crew material for the core and loyal fans. Gives an extra reason to engage.

04 Trailers

The centrepiece, released as both a long-form cut and a vertical Short for maximum reach

Thumbnail style

Designed so the channel read as one campaign.

Thumbnails were designed in-house against the show's palette. Highly expressive faces, minimal type, and a consistent look so the channel read as one campaign.

The insight

Building awareness and momentum beyond the trailer.

The main trailer drove most of the campaign's impressions, but it needed support. The rest of the slate was built for retention and played an important role in keeping that momentum going. Recaps and Season 2 cut-downs gave viewers easy ways to catch up and revisit the story, keeping them engaged leading up to the premiere.

Proof

The premiere drew 58% more viewers than Season 2.

Season 3 opened to 2.03 million global viewers across platforms in its first weekend, a 58% increase on the Season 2 premiere. Retention content did its job. The full campaign ultimately generated 6.97M views and more than 180,000 hours of watch time.

Growing a legacy channel to $20K+ in monthly revenue.

The brief

The client wanted overall channel growth, but the KPI that mattered most was revenue, specifically crossing $20,000+ a month. When we took over, the channel was earning about half that.

My role

Content & Account Manager on a three-person team under a one-year contract. I owned content strategy, platform expertise, and day-to-day client communication.

The approach
  • Shifted the content mix toward high-performing long-form, compilations, and full episodes, paired with strong packaging through SEO and new thumbnail design.
  • Increased publishing volume and used our platform expertise to get more value out of every full-episode upload.
  • Tracked the client's core KPI closely and adjusted the strategy month over month to hit $20K+ in monthly revenue.
  • Expanded beyond YouTube: launched a brand new TikTok account and grew Instagram/Facebook performance alongside the core channel.
  • Built out a short-form content strategy to direct viewers back to full episodes, capturing a larger audience and broadening our reach.

The insight

Growing monthly revenue from $10K to $21.5K.

The client's north-star metric was hitting $20,000+ in monthly YouTube revenue, a number the channel was earning about half of when we took over. By June, we surpassed that milestone for the first time, reaching $21,500 in a single month.

Beyond YouTube

The growth wasn't limited to just YouTube.

TikTok, from zero

Launched a brand-new TikTok account for the channel, growing it from 0 to 14,000 followers.

Record Instagram/Facebook reels

Set record numbers on their Instagram/Facebook, with multiple reels surpassing 1.2M views up to 1.7M.
