Shooters

Why does traditional advertising fail for niche brands?

One of the biggest mistakes new brands make is trying too hard to make their content feel like advertising. But people who choose niche products can smell a sales pitch instantly — and usually reject it. They respect brands that show the world as it is: street romance, robberies, cops, late-night liquor stores, or even a tattooed clerk behind the counter quietly petting a fluffy kitten. Not because every frame needs to be provocative, but because it feels real. Shooters lives in that world. It’s a highly niche cannabis brand rooted in Los Angeles street culture, and they’re extremely selective about what makes it onto their Instagram. No polished lifestyle fantasy, no forced product moments, no cheerful ad language. The content has to feel like something that could have happened whether the camera was there or not — dark, raw, unpredictable, and unmistakably theirs. Just Click-N-Watch it here.  

Fleet ground

But the all content for a clothing brand doesn’t have to be fancy with pricey models or exotic locations. The real key is consistency! But make sure you stick to your brand guidelines to keep your identity strong. For Fleet Ground, it’s all about that grunge, carefree feel—where anyone passing by can grab what catches their eye.
