Project Information
Frank’s Card World set out to build more than just a retail space; they wanted to create a hub for collectors that would stand out in both design and experience. Sparq developed the brand from the ground up, combining nostalgic design elements with modern storytelling and content creation. A flexible identity system gave Frank’s the tools to show up consistently across signage, packaging, merchandise, digital platforms, and in-store materials.
To generate momentum ahead of launch, our team implemented a high-impact marketing plan, from teaser countdowns to regional paid media campaigns. We supported the grand opening with exclusive promotions and buzz-building activations that created real energy around the brand. In its first month, Frank’s Card World saw a 698% ROI, with customers traveling over 200 miles to experience it for themselves.
