# Footwear 7-Day AI Growth Test

## Executive Summary

This run is the shoe / footwear profile used when a client pastes a shoe, sneaker, walking-shoe, running-shoe, or footwear product link. The first recommendation is not to fight broad brand keywords. Start with narrow use cases, real on-foot proof, size trust, returns clarity, and a small paid test across Shopping plus Reels/TikTok.

## Product Positioning

Position the product around a specific job:

- Commute and city walking
- Weekend outfit versatility
- Lightweight everyday comfort
- Easy sizing and low-risk returns

## Conversion Audit

Before paid spend, the product page needs:

- Real on-foot footage
- Size guide and fit notes
- Reviews or proof screenshots
- Materials and construction details
- Shipping, return, and exchange policy
- Avoidance of medical or corrective claims unless proven

## Competitor Research

The threat set is split across major brands, DTC comfort brands, Amazon sellers, TikTok shoe shops, and boutique sneaker brands. The wedge is not "cheaper Nike"; it is a more specific use case with stronger trust and a faster creative-learning loop.

## Growth Points

- Build three landing angles: commute, weekend city walk, and long-day standing.
- Produce 20 short vertical clips: walk-by, close-up, flex, outfit change, size/fit proof.
- Run high-intent Google Shopping only on long-tail use-case terms.
- Use TikTok/Reels for creative discovery and retargeting.
- Test second-pair discount or free-shipping threshold to lift AOV above $100.

## 7-Day Execution Plan

Day 1: Product page audit, competitor scan, size/return trust checklist.

Day 2: Build 10 hooks and 5 video scripts for on-foot footage.

Day 3: Prepare Shopping keyword set, negative keywords, and Reels creative matrix.

Day 4: Launch tiny-budget creative test after human spend approval.

Day 5: Review CTR, 3-second hold, ATC, size-guide clicks, and checkout starts.

Day 7: Deliver report, next offer, and scale / stop recommendation.

## Video Scripts

1. "From commute to weekend, one pair does the work."
