THE OUTPOST

Case Study: The Outpost Scaling Brand Identity for the Global Fleet

The Narrative
For a global giant like Postmates, e-commerce isn’t just about selling gear—it’s about fostering a sense of belonging for a workforce of over 200,000 couriers. KMM Creative Direction was tapped to bridge the gap between corporate operations and street-level culture by launching The Outpost, Postmates’ premier e-commerce apparel destination.

The Strategy
Acting as the narrative glue between Product, Design, Operations, and Marketing, KMM translated technical requirements into a lifestyle brand. Our role was to ensure that every touchpoint of the shop felt intentional, community-focused, and high-energy.

Our Scope included:

• Product Architecture: Pitching and finalizing product names that resonated with "The Fleet" identity.

• Editorial Copywriting: Crafting descriptions that balanced functional utility with brand voice.

• Campaign Strategy: Architecting the 360-marketing roadmap to ensure a high-impact debut.

The Impact
By treating the launch as a cultural event rather than a logistics update, we generated immediate demand.

• The 120-Minute Sell-Out: The inaugural product drop—a limited-edition baseball cap—completely sold out within two hours of going live.

• Engagement at Scale: Successfully activated a global user base of 200,000+ couriers, turning a functional gear shop into a coveted lifestyle brand.
