03 — Seed Health · 2023–2025
Making serious science feel human. Real members, real results, on camera.
The brand
Seed is not a supplement brand. It is a science company that happens to sell a probiotic.
Seed built its reputation on rigor. Clinically studied strains, a capsule engineered to survive the gut, a scientific advisory board. The challenge was warmth. A brand this precise can read cold. The work had to keep the credibility and add a pulse.
The answer was people. Not actors, members. The brand shows up in the world through the voices of the people it actually changed, paired with the science that explains why it works.
The work · member testimonials
A member-testimonial campaign that puts real people on national TV, then cuts to the science that backs up what they felt. Credibility you can hear in a human voice.

The most convincing thing a health brand can do is get out of the way and let a member talk.
Member stories
Member stories open on iSpot, where the national spots are hosted. The flagship testimonial plays right here.
How the brand shows up
The visual world: clinical precision meets warm, editorial life. Deep green, cream, and real human texture.

The point of view
Seed earns attention by refusing the usual playbook. The brand treats marketing as a way to communicate science, not decorate it. Two moments made the point louder than any media buy could.
Earned media · 2023
Gwyneth Paltrow posted herself taking Seed in a now-famous, low-effort clip. It was never a paid ad, and that was the point. The internet turned it into a meme, parodies outperformed most brand content, and Seed sat at the center of a culture moment it did not pay for.
Paid to Gwyneth. The clip was organic, not an ad.

Out-of-home · 2024
On New Year's Eve, Seed took a Times Square billboard and ran a wildlife film instead of a product ad. The footage was sourced from the brand's 7M+ creator community. It reframed the most expensive ad space in the world as a love letter to the planet.
