Food & Beverage CPG Marketing (US-Wide) | Content, Paid Media & In‑House Commercial Production

Meerkat Media Group partners with national food & beverage CPG brands across DTC (Shopify) and retail / marketplace ecosystems—with an integrated mix of creative production, paid media management, and measurement.

If you’re a mission-led brand, see: purpose-driven CPG support.


What we do (at a glance)

Performance + brand building for food & beverage brands:

  • Paid media management across key channels (Meta, TikTok, Google/YouTube, and Amazon Ads)

  • Creative production (in‑house video + editing; optional 3D/CGI product renders)

  • Shopify growth support (ad-to-site conversion flow, offers, landing pages, and creative/PDP alignment)

  • Reporting + measurement (platform + GA4 visibility on the KPIs that matter)

  • Optional discovery support via SEO + GEO (AI visibility)


Important note on Amazon (scope)

We support Amazon Ads (Sponsored Products / Sponsored Brands / Sponsored Display, and related Amazon Ads levers).

  • We do not provide full Amazon marketplace management (catalog troubleshooting, Seller/Vendor operations, reimbursement, etc.).

  • When Amazon sales attribution is needed for off‑platform campaigns, we can coordinate with your Amazon specialist and track performance using a unique tracking link (and agreed reporting conventions).

For our Amazon-specific offering, see: Amazon Ads & Creative Optimization for Food & Beverage Brands.


Who this is for

Best fit if you’re:

  • A food & beverage CPG brand selling nationally (or scaling beyond a local footprint)

  • Selling DTC (Shopify) and/or expanding through retail + marketplace channels

  • Willing to test and iterate creative (hooks, angles, formats) to find what reliably scales

  • Looking for a partner that can connect creative → media → measurement (not siloed vendors)

Not a fit (usually)

  • You need full Amazon operations (catalog/Seller Central/Vendor Central management) rather than Amazon Ads

  • You’re looking for “set it and forget it” ads with minimal creative iteration

  • You need a one-week sprint to “fix everything” (most systems need time + learning cycles)


Channels we support

Channel mix depends on your model (Shopify vs retail), margins, velocity goals, and measurement needs.

  • Meta (Facebook/Instagram): prospecting + retargeting, creative testing, catalog formats

  • TikTok: creator-forward storytelling, audience testing, Spark Ads workflows

  • Google Ads: Search/Shopping/Performance Max for intent capture + product discovery

  • YouTube: longer-form storytelling, reach, and demand generation

  • Amazon Ads: Sponsored Products/Brands/Display + creative optimization

  • CTV / programmatic (select cases): broader reach when creative + budget support it


Shopify growth + conversion support (what’s included)

We’re not a “traffic only” agency. For Shopify brands, we help align:

  • Offer + angle (what you’re asking people to buy and why now)

  • Ad-to-page message match (landing page/PDP alignment to the winning creative)

  • Friction reduction (clarity, proof, FAQs, subscription/bundles, etc.)

Optional support (as needed):

  • Email/SMS strategy coordination (flows/campaign direction; we can work alongside your ESP team)

  • Landing pages + CRO support (recommendations, wireframes/content modules, testing plan)


Creative production (what we typically produce)

Deliverables vary by cadence and channel mix, but common outputs include:

  • Short-form video ads (multiple hooks/angles, variants, aspect ratios)

  • Product + lifestyle photography for ads and site

  • UGC-style creative direction (scripts, shot lists, creator briefs) + editing

  • Copy/testing variations (headlines, primary text, CTAs)

  • Commercial-grade video when the brand and distribution justify it

Need premium visual variety without constant reshoots? Consider 3D/CGI product renders.


KPIs we track (examples)

We tailor reporting to your funnel and channels, but common KPIs include:

  • ROAS

  • Purchases / orders

  • CPC (cost per click)

  • CPA (cost per acquisition)

  • Impressions / reach / frequency

  • Video views (including completion rates where relevant)

  • GA4 key events (as defined in your GA4 setup)

Measurement note: attribution varies by channel and business model. We’ll align on what “success” means before scaling spend.


Recommended engagement length

For most food & beverage brands, we recommend committing to 3–6 months to allow for:

  • Creative testing + learnings to compound

  • Platform learning cycles (especially with new accounts or new offers)

  • Iteration on landing pages / messaging alignment


Proof & examples

A few brands we’ve supported include:

  • YouLoveFruit

  • Dare to Be Different

  • Onboard Tuna

  • FloodTape

  • Chestnut Hill Farms

  • Smith Farms

We’ve also worked with brands across categories like salsa, coffee, jerky, and wellness (examples available on request depending on what’s relevant to your channel mix).

How we work (simple process)

  1. Discovery + constraints (channels, margins, inventory, velocity goals, creative library)

  3. Creative plan + production (concepts, hooks, scripts, shot plan)

  4. Launch + testing (structured experimentation, fast iteration)

  5. Scale + refine (shift spend toward proven winners; expand audiences/angles)


FAQs

Do you offer SEO?

Yes—when it fits the plan. See SEO + GEO (AI visibility).

Do you produce content in-house?

Yes. We offer in-house production (video + editing), and can also produce premium creative like 3D/CGI renders.

What’s the minimum engagement?

Most brands see the best results with 3–6 months, because creative and performance learnings need time to compound.
