The idea for MorphCostumes originated in 2009, when one of the founders, Gregor Lawson, wore a head-to-toe spandex suit during a weekend trip with friends in Dublin. Onlookers were so excited by the costume, they stopped him every few minutes to take photos. Seeing the potential demand, Gregor and his two friends, Ali and Fraser Smeaton, realized that there could be an opportunity to sell this iconic “Morphsuit” costume. They later founded MorphCostumes and started the small business from a tiny apartment in Scotland.
MorphCostumes have used Amazon Ads to build brand awareness, drive sales, and expand internationally into 12 countries. Watch the three-part video series to learn more about their challenges as a small business, and what three advertising solutions they used to grow the business on a global level.
