CRO Strategy and Creative Production in DTC Business
TAM supported Calbee Inc.’s DTC business Body Granola by providing a CRO (Conversion Rate Optimization) strategy to enhance overall business performance, along with the necessary creative production.
Body Granola is a subscription-based service that offers personalized granola tailored to each customer based on the results of their gut flora analysis, using ingredients that are favored by the bacteria predominant in their digestive system. As one of Calbee’s new business initiatives under its strategic focus on "Food and Health," TAM acted as a D2C business partner, supporting the project end-to-end. We employed a strategic approach aimed at maximizing the CVR(conversion rate), taking a comprehensive role from creative production to performance analysis and implementation of improvement measures.
Maximizing CVR Through Optimized Ad Creatives
To maximize the performance of web advertisements, we designed an upstream strategy for banner production based on Body Granola’s target audience and the advertising platforms being used.

By thoroughly analyzing the 4W1H—When, Where, Who, What, and How—we constructed banner concepts and creative elements suited to each condition. The design elements were broken down into components such as “concept,” “tone & manner,” “call-to-action (CTA),” “motifs,” “copy,” and “layout.” These were then verbalized to extract key success factors and explore the optimal combinations.

Over 100 banner designs were created based on these combinations, enabling the optimization of ad creatives.
We analyzed the performance data of each banner, identifying the factors behind both successful and underperforming patterns. This allowed us to determine the combinations that delivered the best results and to quickly implement PDCA cycles, which contributed significantly to improving the CVR.

Approach to Improving Landing Page and E-Commerce Site for Higher CVR

We also carried out improvements and optimization of the Body Granola landing page and e-commerce site, with the goal of increasing the CVR(conversion rate).
Using past user behavior data, we examined different structural patterns by referencing metrics such as reading completion rates and conversion data. While basing the layout on TAM’s experience and proven practices in Landing Page design, we also considered the fact that the service is relatively high-priced. As a result, we enriched the content with elements that foster trust and added editorial-style articles designed to enhance purchase motivation.
Additionally, in the months following the initial launch, we developed and deployed several derivative Landing Page variations and have continued to implement daily updates. By doing so, we continuously incorporated user feedback to refine the experience—resulting in improved engagement and outcomes.
We defined appropriate KPIs in response to clearly identified challenges and goals, and conducted UX improvements by combining quantitative and qualitative data. According to Calbee’s desired outcomes, we maintained a flexible support structure and executed strategy planning, implementation, analysis, and review in an integrated and agile manner.
Building a Strong Partnership
Starting from ad creative production, we moved forward with optimization of the Landing Page and website aimed at improving CVR.
Gradually, our scope of involvement expanded to include strategic planning for LTV (lifetime value) optimization, user-centric proposal development, and support for ecforce platform(an e-commerce platform for building and managing online stores) development. By flexibly adapting our scope of support according to the challenges and objectives at hand, we’ve been assisting this fast-moving D2C business with the agility it requires.
