Consumer Voice is a community platform for consumer goods brands — reviews, recipes, contests, feedback. We built the engine once. **We re-cloned it for 14 demo brands, plus our own B2B outreach sales system.**

## A platform built together with a partner agency

Consumer Voice is built in partnership with a marketing agency (Wave Advertising Group) — they bring the commercial relationship with FMCG brands, we build and operate the platform.

## FMCG brands don't have their own consumer data asset

Many consumer goods brands run isolated campaigns (a contest here, a recipe page there) without building their own permanent asset for the consumer relationship — first-party data, useful after the individual campaign ends.

## Four modules, one platform per brand

Every module has distinct value for three different internal audiences of a brand — marketing, sales, and trade marketing — which makes the platform sellable to multiple departments at once, not just marketing.

- 01**Verified reviews** aggregated from more than 20 sources.
- 02**Recipes & inspiration** a hub of consumer-generated content.
- 03**Contests** giveaways, prize draws, photo/video contests.
- 04**Continuous feedback** capturing preferences directly from consumers.

## The reusable engine, re-cloned 14 times

- 01Building a base template, with single-brand and multi-brand variants.
- 02A dedicated visual identity for every new brand, on the same engine.
- 03Development time of 3-5 weeks per new instance.
- 04Sold through the partnership with Wave Advertising Group and our own B2B outreach system — pages personalised per company contacted, booking integrated with Google Calendar.

## From a platform to an engine that sells at scale

The platform also sells through our own B2B outreach system, not just through the partner agency. For confidentiality reasons, the platforms built for real clients aren't shown publicly — a single demo brand (FrostBite, created specifically for presentation purposes, with no real client behind it) is visible as a live example.

## What we used

React/Vite/TypeScript frontend with animations for each platform, a Supabase backend isolated per project (following the per-client data isolation policy), hosted on Netlify.

## A reusable product wins on delivery time, not just on price

The biggest lesson was to build the engine once, properly, instead of rebuilding from scratch for every new brand — the difference shows directly in delivery time, cut to 3-5 weeks per instance. The second lesson: a platform with four different modules sells more easily inside a brand, because each module finds its own audience — marketing, sales, trade marketing — not just the marketing team.

## Frequently asked questions

### How many brands already use Consumer Voice?

We built 14 demo platforms on this template, single-brand and multi-brand variants — the actual number of paying clients isn't made public on the sales page, for confidentiality reasons.

### How long does it take to build a new platform for a brand?

About 3-5 weeks per instance, thanks to the reusable engine we've already built — we don't start from scratch for every new brand.

### Why don't you show real clients' platforms publicly?

For confidentiality reasons — clients don't want their platform used as a sales example for competitors. We show a single demo brand, created specifically for presentation.
