Allio: Snark Campaign
I created the Snark Campaign to give Allio a bold, human voice in a category full of bland finance ads. Instead of vague promises, I wrote sharp copy that directly called out industry pain points — hidden fees, bad UX, banking BS — with humor and bite.
My Approach
I wrote every headline and tagline myself, keeping it short, punchy, and irreverent — finance truth bombs instead of spreadsheets.
Paired the copy with bold typography and simple layouts so the words carried the weight.
Built and tested multiple tone levels (mild snark vs. unapologetic sass) and refined based on performance lift.
Results
Reached 100k+ unique users in the first two weeks.
Achieved 5.8% engagement rate — about 3.5× fintech benchmarks.
CTR climbed to 4.1%, with the boldest lines driving a +60% lift over softer variants.
Conversion: 7.2% click-to-install, dropping CAC to $3.75 (20% below target).
Campaign drove a measurable uptick in AUM, with new user deposits increasing by $1.2M within the first month.
Post-campaign surveys showed a 36-point lift in users agreeing “Allio feels real and authentic.”
Takeaway
By leaning into sharp, confident copywriting, I helped Allio lower CAC, grow AUM, and stand out as the fintech brand that actually speaks like its users — proof that snark sells when it’s grounded in truth.
