Challenge
An India based premium activewear label wanted to leverage its UGC to improve conversion rates and reduce content creation costs without breaching any legal compliances.
Imagine the excitement of a fitness enthusiast discovering the perfect activewear that not only looks sleek but feels like a second skin too. SKNZ is redefining activewear by making high-quality, durable, and stylish garments accessible to everyone. Known for its innovative fabrics and attention to detail, SKNZ has built a loyal customer base that proudly shares their fitness journeys while wearing the garments.
Solution
An easy-to-use UGC suite to effortlessly collect and display authentic and relevant visual content on the Home Page and Product Pages.
Much like their clients who conquer new personal records in their active lifestyles, SKNZ wanted to harness the power of these real-life stories and showcase them to inspire new customers. By featuring authentic, user-generated content from overjoyed athletes and fitness enthusiasts, SKNZ aimed to create a community-driven brand experience that highlights the joy and empowerment their apparel brings to those who wear it. This strategy not only amplifies SKNZ’s social proof but also reduces the need for in-house content creation, turning their customers’ accomplishments into visual assets that enhance both engagement and sales.

Leveraging UGC mindfully
While tapping into UGC to improve profitability was the goal, Sknz was clear that:
- Their UGC should be curated and displayed effortlessly on their website
- There should be no legal compliance breaches
- They should be able to measure the performance impact on their business
A Snapshot of SKNZ’s journey of leveraging UGC using Idukki’s suite

Since Idukki’s UGC suite comes with a Digital Assets Management platform, SKNZ could both organize their assets in multiple collections seamlessly and also control access to these assets for further use.
