The brief

Bettina’s Kitchen, founded by retreat chef and bestselling author Bettina Campolucci Bordi, brought us in to grow bookings for her Retreat Chef Academy and wellness retreats through high-performing paid campaigns.

Approach

We started by rebuilding the ad account structure from the ground up, with clear tracking on every campaign so each booking could be traced back to the ad that drove it. With the foundations in place, we focused on quality leads before scaling into sales campaigns.

Identity

Our photography and video brought Bettina’s plant-forward approach and hands-on teaching to life, producing ad creative that reflects the warmth and expertise of the academy.

In the world

We manage Bettina’s paid campaigns month to month across the academy and her retreats, with performance tracked at every stage and each campaign shaped by what the last one showed works.

Outcome

Our campaign secured two Retreat Chef Academy bookings for 2027 within the first 12 hours, worth £8,000, and the momentum continues across each new campaign.

Campaign engagement

One reel from the campaign got thousands of people watching, set off a lively conversation in the comments, and was liked and saved again and again by viewers who wanted to come back to it. Strangers became followers, and followers became future students.
