Scope of work

Director, Creator, Operator.

01 – Brand Strategy & Identity

ASK is about really good cat living. Aspirational, real, raw, with an accent of comedy.

  • Visual Identity & Feline Cast: Developed the complete brand identity—color systems, typography, brand applications, and a commissioned illustration library. Created a unique editorial framework for the cast: Adonis, his feisty alter-ego Adonos, and Anabelita, our Spanish queen.

  • Directing Method & Tone: The directing method focuses on capturing unscripted live conversations with Adonis, then shaping his dialogue in post through subtitles precisely matched to the natural duration of his meows. Established a raw, unscripted tone of voice with one strict rule: every piece of content must deliver either entertainment or education.

  • Mission & Community Advocacy: Designed the brand mission to inspire cat parents to self-advocate and give their cats a great quality of life. Supported this with strict community management protocols to safely share personal medical experiences and collect user stories that drive the brand’s social proof.

02 – Content Production & Growth

  • End-to-End Production: Direct, script & storyboard (educational only), shoot, edit, and animate daily short-form and long-form YouTube content, utilizing custom A/B testing for titles and thumbnails.

  • SEO & Evergreen Repurposing: Built an SEO engine (“The Sweetened Blog”) that translates video scripts into fact-checked, high-ranking educational articles.

  • Community management: DMs and comments answered myself, with content ideas coming straight from the audience

03 – E-Commerce & Monetization

  • Global Shopify Operations: Manage global e-commerce across EU and US markets, actively customizing Liquid and CSS code for seasonal drops and marketing campaigns.

  • Product & Supply Chain: Design all physical merchandise and architected a dual-market Print-on-Demand (POD) routing system for localized, worldwide delivery.

  • Partnerships & Automation: Pitch, negotiate, and deliver full-funnel campaign creative for brand sponsors.

04 – Systems & tooling

Every system here is trained on my own experience. Nothing goes out without my review, reviewing is faster than building from zero, and it is also how I know when a system needs updating.

  • Brand Operations & Notion Tracking: Built dedicated project spaces for ASK HQ, brand deals, content, and websites—each equipped with specific instructions, skills, and a Notion connector for full, real-time tracking, workflow rules and self improovement.

  • Custom AI Writing & Editorial Systems: Developed custom skills trained on my raw writing for voice consistency, blog formatting, and brand-deal workflows, backed by a rigorous editorial system running 7 to 15 rounds of revision.

  • Store Admin Automation: Automated the full Shopify admin workflow using Anthropic’s integration—turning hours of tedious manual multi-vendor catalog management into minutes.

  • Motion & Storyboard Systems: Engineered custom text animation motion systems trained into Claude Design, alongside a custom storyboard tool built to map scripts scene by scene.

Beyond the metrics

“Her glucose was 550 when she was diagnosed. My vet gave me a quick tutorial on injections and that was it. I was alone and terrified. With your channel I learned how to do glucose curves, how to chart and track her numbers. In July 2025 she went into remission and remains there today.”

“I had no idea how to give insulin, or the importance of low carb diets, or testing before each injection. Your videos really helped in the beginning. Most vets are so impressed with her spreadsheet, most have never seen anything like it. I've noticed many vets don't know a ton about diabetes, so having this knowledge is really important and helps others too.”

“My old vet wanted to put her to sleep. I messaged the Adonis account quite a lot, and they made me feel more confident that I needed to find a new vet and to give other treatments a try. I can see she still has quality of life and it has improved since her last appointment with the old vet.”
