Beach Bum
NFT
For Beach Bums NFT, I led the creative direction and marketing strategy for a visually captivating NFT collection that blended coastal lifestyle aesthetics with blockchain culture. The project quickly gained traction, achieving strong early sales and establishing a recognizable identity within the crypto community.
Make it stand out
Establishing a Community
For Beach Bums NFT, I led creative direction and marketing strategy for a lifestyle-inspired digital art collection that merged coastal culture with the energy of Web3. Collaborating with commissioned artist DopeDarius, I helped define the brand identity, design the logo, and oversee the visual storytelling that gave the collection its distinctive character.
Beyond creative direction, I built an active online community through Discord and Twitter, developing engagement strategies that fostered real conversation and collector loyalty. I met community members and investors face-to-face at the Benzinga Crypto Conference in NYC, strengthening relationships and expanding the project’s network within the crypto art scene.
Pre-launch campaigns grew social following by 74%, leading to 55% of NFTs sold within two months and a peak trading volume of $72,500. I also secured brand partnerships with Tampa Aquarium, Green Bench Brewing, and Sologenic, which helped expand reach and credibility. The result was a cohesive, community-driven NFT project that combined storytelling, design, and data-backed marketing to achieve measurable success and long-term engagement.
