9 Case Study Examples, Plus a Useful Case Study Template
Writing a case study can help you pitch your services to prospective clients. Learn how to write one by studying successful examples and using a free template.
![design by kate case study solution A magnifying glass on an orange background with three boxes displaying data points.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/case_20study_20examples_1848x970.png?v=1718983793)
If you can write a résumé, you can write a case study. Just as a résumé shows potential employers how your experience can benefit their team, a case study highlights an existing client’s success story to demonstrate your business or product’s value to prospective clients.
A compelling case study includes relevant data without overwhelming your reader, considers the customer’s perspective, and demonstrates how you handled a specific challenge.
The best way to learn how to write one is by reading a stellar business case study example.
What is a case study?
A case study is a document business-to-business (B2B) companies use to illustrate how their product or service helped a client achieve their goals. A winning case study introduces the featured client, gives a brief description of their challenge or goal, and showcases the results they achieved with your help.
Businesses that provide software, tools, or consulting services often provide case studies to potential customers trying to choose between several options.
A company’s marketing team is typically responsible for writing case studies, but if you have a small business without a dedicated marketing team, don’t worry. Anyone can write a case study, and it’s a straightforward process if you use a template.
Why should you create a case study?
A case study brings your product or service to life for future customers with real-world examples. These success stories offer tangible results. Case studies are, thus, a form of social proof , but their power goes beyond a mere testimonial or review.
Since B2B services often are expensive and require approval from multiple decision-makers, typical forms of social proof often aren't enough to convince potential customers. Business customers want to be able to share compelling data with their teams, and that’s where the case study is beneficial.
How to write a case study
- Choose a template
- Interview your client or customer
- Describe the situation
- Identify the solution
- Present the results
1. Choose a template
You don’t necessarily need a template to write a case study, but it can make the process easier—especially if you haven’t written one before or need to write several at once.
You’ll notice that most business case studies take the same general format; after inputting the basics into the template, you can add your own personal flair. (That is, your branding and voice.)
2. Interview your client or customer
The client or customer interview is the heart of the case study. Identify several current or past clients willing to chat with you about their experiences. Look for repeat customers and those who reached out independently to tell you how much they enjoyed your product or service.
A phone interview is the best way to get conversational quotes, but you can correspond via email if your subject is short on time. Not sure what to ask? When social advertising agency Biddyco interviewed the VP of Marketing at Fellow , they asked him the following questions , according to their case study:
- What were the obstacles that would have prevented you from choosing/hiring Biddyco?
- What have you found as a result of hiring Biddyco?
- What specific feature or thing do you like most about Biddyco’s services?
- Would you recommend Biddyco and why?
The goal of the interview is to better understand your client’s experience with your product or service and grab a soundbite you can use as a testimonial in your case study. If you didn’t work directly with the client, you may also want to interview someone on your team who did to get more context.
3. Describe the situation
Give context to your case study with a brief description of the client’s business and the desired outcome that led them to seek your product or service. You can follow this general formula:
[Client’s name] is a [type of business] with [unique feature]. [Client’s name] came to [your business] seeking [client’s desired outcome] while [requirement].
Here’s an example of a one-sentence situation summary in the case study for Sharma Brands ’ client Feastables:
“Feastables, a better-for-you snacks company, came to us in need of a team to take the DTC setup off their plate.”
Advertising company Adgile, which created moving billboards for the non-alcoholic aperitif brand Ghia , has a longer description in its case study that provides background on the marketplace, but the heart of it is this:
“Ghia was seeking creative ways to break through the clutter of a crowded—and big-budgeted—adult beverage market, all while managing customer acquisition cost (CAC).”
4. Identify the solution
This section can vary depending on your field. Also described as “the action,” “the work,” or “the strategy,” the solution describes the strategic insights your company brought to your client’s problem or how your customer used your product to achieve their goals.
The basic formula: [Client’s name] partnered with [your business] to [service received].
Here’s an example from email marketing software Klaviyo’s case study featuring olive oil brand Graza:
“Graza uses Klaviyo’s granular segmentation tools to send automated flows and promotional campaigns to small, targeted groups of customers based on purchase frequency.”
This section describes exactly which of Klaviyo’s features Graza used (granular segmentation) and how they used it (to send automated flows to small, targeted groups), without getting into any outcomes or results yet.
5. Present the results
This section is where you’ll win over prospective customers and build trust. The basic formula is:
[Client’s name] used [service received] to [desired outcome].
Share how your product or service positively affected the client’s business, whether that’s cost savings, more clients, or improved company culture. According to a case study from community platform TYB, the results it delivered for skin care company Dieux were as follows:
“Dieux was able to create thousands of authentic, personalized referrals ahead of its new product launch plus live out its brand promise of transparency.”
Depending on your product or service, your results may include quantifiable outcomes (like thousands of referrals), intangibles (like living out your brand promise), or both, as in the case of TYB.
Real-world examples of case studies
Sharma brands for feastables, adgile media group for ghia, meta for lulus, tyb for dieux, biddyco for fellow, outline for heyday canning, klaviyo for graza, culture amp for bombas, kustomer for thirdlove.
A great way to write a case study is to look at a sample case study—or better yet, many. You’ll notice that wildly different businesses have case studies that follow roughly the same structure, which is why we recommend using one of our free case study templates to write yours. Learn from this mix of business, design, and marketing case study examples:
Sharma Brands is a branding agency founded by Nik Sharma , “The DTC Guy.” Sharma Brands keeps its case study featuring snack company Feastables short and sweet, breaking it down into three chronological sections: the situation, the work, and the outcome.
The Sharma Brands case study is a good example of how to incorporate meaningful results without sharing actual numbers (which the client may not wish to make public) or getting into an in-depth analysis.
Instead of metrics, Sharma Brands lists the tasks it executed:
- “Successfully launched their DTC site.”
- “Simultaneously launched on GoPuff with no downtime.”
It also lists some general achievements:
- “Broke Shopify records in the first 24 hours of launch.”
- “All revenue and engagement metrics were highly exceeded.”
![design by kate case study solution Adgile case study for Ghia showing ads on trucks.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/unnamed_cc88d0d3-8086-4cd1-83f7-bc0d404cdd05_1848x970.png?v=1718985087)
Adgile Media Group creates outdoor advertising by providing brands with mobile billboards. Unlike traditional outdoor advertising, Adgile also tracks the digital impact of its IRL campaigns.
Adgile’s case study featuring the non-alcoholic beverage brand Ghia is the perfect place to show off the metrics it collects, like:
- 78% homepage visit lift
- 91% conversion lift
- 82% lift on its Find Us page
- Increase in brand awareness and recall, more than 75% over the competition
Meta, the social media and digital advertising platform, does something in its case studies that every company can replicate. Instead of saving the numbers for the results section, Meta provides a brief overview near the top. This breaks up the text visually, provides a quick snapshot for anyone who doesn’t want to read the full case study, and intrigues those curious to know how they achieved those numbers.
![design by kate case study solution A screengrab of Lulu's case study results.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/unnamed-1_1efdcfaf-bbf9-4aaa-b347-b734fb74198c_1848x970.png?v=1718985084)
Meta’s case study for the clothing company Lulus starts by teasing its most impressive stat:
“The women’s fashion ecommerce company compared the performance of a Meta Advantage+ shopping campaign with Advantage+ catalog ads versus its usual ad campaign setup and saw a 47% increase in return on ad spend using the Advantage+ products.”
It then presents three key figures in a visually appealing design, drawing clear attention to the impact it had on this customer.
TYB is a community platform that rewards fans for creating user-generated content . TYB’s case study for Dieux details how the skincare brand used its platform to involve customers in product testing.
It also does something small worth noting: Instead of sticking the call to action at the bottom of the case study, TYB places a “request demo” button at the top of the page. That way, anyone compelled by the results of the case study can take the next step immediately.
![design by kate case study solution Screengrab of Dieux's referral with request a demo button and image of a statue of cupid.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/unnamed-4_4bebf392-762f-44c0-8994-cd0c8556f9bb_1848x970.png?v=1718985087)
Advertising agency Biddyco took a unique approach to its case study for the coffee- and tea-gear company Fellow . Unlike other business case study examples that use the typical situation-solution-results format, Biddyco structured its case study as an extended testimonial, with a series of questions like, “What specific feature or thing do you like most about Biddyco’s services?”
In addition to client feedback, Biddyco also highlights a few key accomplishments under the heading “All You Really Need to Know.”
![design by kate case study solution Screengrab of Biddyco's case study results.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/unnamed-3_44b5fc4d-b01e-490c-962f-ffc443149d42_1848x970.png?v=1718985087)
A branding studio like Outline won’t approach case studies in the same way an advertising platform like Meta would. What matters here isn’t cost per impression or ROAS, it’s how everything looks.
That’s why Outline’s case study for Heyday Canning is relatively light on words and heavy on imagery. If your work is more visual than numerical, your case study is a great place to show your behind-the-scenes process.
For example, Outline shows the label design alongside images of the cans on the shelf and provides a brief description of the design inspiration. This example shows how you can have a design-focused case study that still tells a compelling story.
![design by kate case study solution Heyday Canning product display with highligh on Apricot Glazed.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/unnamed-6_ee2f4b96-c227-4bd2-b13b-161eb09537e2_1848x970.png?v=1718985092)
Klaviyo , an email marketing software company, puts numbers front and center in its case study for the olive oil company Graza . If your product or service involves tracking metrics like email open rates, revenue, and click rates, highlight those stats in a larger font size, as Klaviyo did.
Klaviyo’s case study for Graza also shows you don’t necessarily need to fix a problem to create a great case study; you can also simply help your client achieve their goals. According to Klaviyo’s case study, Graza’s challenge was to create strong customer relationships.
![design by kate case study solution Screengrab of Graza case study results and image of Graza products display.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/unnamed-2_9edfed95-38c8-4e74-9c24-b8133f125f80_1848x970.png?v=1718985103)
How do you write a compelling case study if your service doesn’t involve tangible metrics or flashy design? For the performance management software company Culture Amp , it’s highlighting key statistics about the subject of its case study , sock company Bombas .
Like Meta and Klaviyo, Culture Amp highlights three numbers in large font. But these numbers are stats about their client Bombas, not Culture Amp’s services: “120+ employees,” “25M+ items donated,” and “$100M+ in revenue for 2018.”
Instead of showing off the results it achieved for Bombas, these numbers let prospective clients know that Culture Amp works with big, important companies on their performance management process.
Choosing a customer relationships management ( CRM ) platform is a big decision. Switching platforms—as bra company ThirdLove did in this case study from customer support platform Kustomer—can involve lengthy data migration, customization, and employee onboarding.
That’s why it makes sense that Kustomer’s case study for ThirdLove is a four-page-long PDF and not a blog post. If your case study involves a long, detailed analysis, follow Kustomer’s example and make two versions of your case study.
The first page is an executive summary, with about a paragraph each describing the challenge and results. If after reading the first page, you want to learn more, you can dive into the rest of the case study, but you don’t have to read the entire thing to get a sense of how Kustomer collaborated with ThirdLove.
![design by kate case study solution Screengrab of ThirdLove case study with image of bra display.](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0070/7032/files/unnamed-5_92a7ddd4-4e17-44b5-b020-84a0b6a2ebec_1848x970.png?v=1718985099)

This case study will share the story of Greg Houston, a successful architect with nearly two decades of experience whose website was beginning to experience some lag in speed with the growth of his company, GMH By Design. Read his journey about how choosing the right Managed VPS plan for Greg’s website improved his user experience for his customers.
A fast and reliable website is very important for small business owners, so choosing the right plan for your business is essential for long-term success.
Managed VPS plans, powered by Virtuozzo, can be a great tool to help businesses level up their digital presence as they outgrow the resources available on shared hosting plans. With additional power, security, support, and flexibility, migrating to our Managed VPS plan is easy with the assistance of A2 Hosting’s Guru Crew support. This case study will share the story of Greg Houston, a successful architect with nearly two decades of experience whose website was beginning to experience some lag in speed with the growth of his company, GMH By Design. Read his journey about how choosing the right Managed VPS plan for Greg’s website improved his user experience for his customers.
An Architect on a Mission to Bring His Designs to Life
Greg Houston founded GMH by Design, a residential and commercial architecture practice based out of Denver, Colorado, because of his love of architecture and his passion for working with clients to help bring their visions to life. His company specializes in quality workmanship, simple design, and modern convenience. “We offer the benefits of a large firm at the cost of a small design office,” said Greg. “We work with residential and commercial clients to envision and design their space to suit their needs as we guide them through the process.”
![design by kate case study solution design by kate case study solution](https://www.a2hosting.com/blog/content/uploads/2022/12/virtuozzo-235x102.jpg)
Improving Greg’s Digital Experience
![design by kate case study solution design by kate case study solution](https://www.a2hosting.com/blog/content/uploads/2022/12/archetecture-gmh-by-design.jpg)
“Our website showcases the work we’ve done, who we work with, and our vision. It’s our salesperson twenty-four hours a day,” Greg shared. “It’s important because it’s the primary way we share our work with potential clients.” His website is one of the main ways his clients find his business, which makes its pictures and content important when optimizing for search engines. As his website has continued to grow over the years he noticed that the speed of his site has been on a steady decline. This led Greg to start looking into changing hosting providers to find a better plan that would improve the performance of his website. Greg shared, “The front end and the backend of our website have been slow which made it hard for our potential clients to navigate and for us to update.”
GMH by Design is currently on WordPress. Greg initially tried to combat the site speed issues with a caching plug-in as well as some other optimization plugins he found. This helped a bit, but it was not enough improvement for his company’s site long term. Because of this, he set out to find a new solution.
When searching for a new provider and plan Greg had some specific requirements he was looking for. “First is reliability, then speed. The website needs to be up for our potential customers to reach and it has to be fast, even with the large images we use on our site to showcase our work. We need to rank well and we want customers to feel the site is professionally hosted,” said Greg.
GMH by Design was looking for a new host that offered stability, speed and was affordable. As a small business owner, Houston wants to prioritize time to devote to his business rather than worrying about the stability of his site or the speed of his page load times.
Greg was initially referred to A2 Hosting by a friend that was already working with us. “I was hesitant to move providers at first because I was worried about the migration process. I eventually decided on A2 because my friend who was a current customer with A2 Hosting recommended your plans. I also read reviews and while searching I saw you had a reputation for fast servers.” He evaluated a few other shared packages with rival hosting companies, but in the end, decided on an A2 Hosting’s Managed VPS plan.
![design by kate case study solution design by kate case study solution](https://www.a2hosting.com/blog/content/uploads/2022/12/building-gmh-by-design.jpg)
Transferring to a VPS Plan with A2 Hosting
When asked about his experience getting started with A2 Hosting, Greg commented, “It was very easy. The free migration was simple and fairly hands-off and my experiences with the support team so far have been great.”
Greg was interested in A2’s Managed VPS plans (powered by Virtuozzo) because he knew he needed more power overall to improve his website. “I would say investing in a Managed VPS over a Shared Hosting plan had several advantages that I wasn’t aware of, speed being the primary one.” Not only do VPS plans offer more resources over a shared hosting package, but they also can provide GMH by Design with more independence from noisy neighbors on the server who could affect Greg’s site’s performance when they get heavy traffic. “I wasn’t aware of how beneficial dedicated resources can be for a site,” Greg said. “With a VPS the overall function of my website on average is increased because of not sharing resources with other business sites.” VPS servers offer users their own disk space, RAM, and CPU. They come with significantly more space to store website-related files, images, and folders. This is something that will be important for Greg as he continues to work on new projects and post large images to his site.
Lessons Learned
“My best advice would be not to wait to migrate your site to a faster host, even if it seems like it will be a lot of work before you get there,” Greg shared. “I thought migration would be difficult or time-consuming but it wasn’t. If I had known, I would have moved my site much sooner.” Greg’s overall migration took less than a day with no downtime. “Since the move, my website has been faster and much easier to manage.”

Real-time analytics from Edge to multiple factories with NATS and i-flow
Jan Strehl — July 22, 2024
In the competitive landscape of the manufacturing industry (e.g., automotive), achieving efficient and scalable operations across multiple factory locations is critical. This case study examines the implementation of a real-time analytics solution using NATS and i-flow to overcome common challenges such as data silos, real-time processing requirements, scalability, and communication inefficiencies in OT/IT environments. The primary design goal was to seamlessly scale real-time analytics across various factory locations.
There are several critical challenges that typically hinder operational efficiency and scalability through real-time analytics:
Data Silos Integration Difficulties: Integrating data from disparate sources and systems is challenging, especially when dealing with a wide array of equipment and software. Fragmented OT Data: OT data is fragmented across various factory systems, leading to inconsistencies and difficulties in data management. Legacy Systems: The presence of legacy systems further complicates the integration process, requiring customized solutions.
No Real-Time Processing: There is an urgent need for real-time data processing and analysis to optimize manufacturing operations. Delays in data availability hinders timely decision-making and operational adjustments.
No Scalability: Integrating operations including thousands of machines and dozens of IT systems increases the volume of data. Existing infrastructures struggle to manage this growth efficiently while maintaining the flexibility to adapt.
Unreliable Communication: Ensuring reliable and effective communication between factory systems and enterprise-level applications is key. Today’s fragmented OT/IT infrastructures across sites hinder seamless connectivity and real-time data processing.
NATS serves as the edge and enterprise-level messaging system, ensuring seamless and reliable communication across all levels of the organization. i-flow functions as the connectivity, harmonization, and NATS publishing layer for OT data, effectively integrating and standardizing data from various sources before publishing it to NATS for real-time processing and analysis.
- High throughput NATS is capable of handling high volumes of data, which is essential for scaling operations across multiple factory locations. This high throughput capability supports the increasing data demands as more machines and systems are integrated.
- Reliable Communication NATS ensures reliable communication between different components of the manufacturing system and across all enterprise levels. This reliability is vital for maintaining seamless operations and ensuring data integrity.
- Scalability The architecture of NATS allows for easy scalability, accommodating the growth of the company’s manufacturing operations. As new factories and use cases are added, NATS can integrate them into the existing system without significant reconfiguration.
- 100% deployed on premise NATS is easy to deploy and scale with the need for black boxed Cloud based services. This provides maximum confidentiality to the end user.
Implementation Steps
Ot connectivity with i-flow:.
i-flow is deployed at Factory Edge level to provide bidirectional connectivity for real-time data exchange and integration between NATS and various OT systems. This includes PLCs, SCADA systems, MES and sensors.
Harmonization with i-flow:
i-flow harmonizes the OT data, ensuring it is consistent and standardized across different systems. This process involves cleaning, transforming, formatting and normalizing the data.
Publishing and Subscribing Data with i-flow:
i-flow publishes harmonized OT data to NATS, enabling real-time data streaming from OT systems to enterprise applications. Additionally, i-flow subscribes to data from NATS, facilitating bidirectional communication between OT systems and enterprise-level applications.
Edge and Enterprise-Level Data Processing with NATS:
- Messaging: NATS acts as the messaging backbone, providing low-latency, high-throughput messaging capabilities. It ensures reliable communication between different components of the manufacturing system and across all enterprise levels.
- Real-Time Monitoring: Enterprise applications subscribe to relevant topics on NATS to receive real-time updates from the factory floor.
- Analytics and Reporting: The data is processed and analyzed to generate insights, which are used for decision-making, predictive maintenance, and optimizing production processes.
Architecture
The implementation of NATS and i-flow brings significant benefits to customers and improves key aspects of their digital infrastructure.
Improved Efficiency
Real-Time Data Integration and Processing: The integration and real-time processing of data leads to more efficient manufacturing operations by ensuring that critical information was always up-to-date and readily available.

Designs by Kate: The Power of Direct Sales Marketing Case Description
Sales & marketing case study | authors :: john deighton, sarah l. abbott.
The sales representatives at Designs by Kate (DBK) sell private label jewelry at hosted parties and through online social media channels. They are also responsible for recruiting, training, and managing new sales reps. CEO and founder Kate Creevey designed the commission plan to encourage sales reps to build teams and become "leaders" for their teams. The strategy has been very successful over the company's first five years. Now the CEO is concerned that growth in top-line revenue is slowing, possibly due to an unwillingness by current sales representatives to build and manage their own sales teams. A survey reveals that many sales reps believe their incomes from jewelry sales decline when they add members to their sales teams due to increased competition for hosting parties within the same geographic area. The CEO must revisit the commission structure to determine if it is still an effective incentive. The case includes a quantitative assignment that students should complete as part of case analysis.

Designs by kate: the power of direct sales description.
The sales representatives at Designs by Kate (DBK) sell private label jewelry at hosted parties and through online social media channels. They are also responsible for recruiting, training, and managing new sales reps. CEO and founder Kate Creevey designed the commission plan to encourage sales reps to build teams and become "leaders" for their teams. The strategy has been very successful over the company's first five years. Now the CEO is concerned that growth in top-line revenue is slowing, possibly due to an unwillingness by current sales representatives to build and manage their own sales teams. A survey reveals that many sales reps believe their incomes from jewelry sales decline when they add members to their sales teams due to increased competition for hosting parties within the same geographic area. The CEO must revisit the commission structure to determine if it is still an effective incentive. The case includes a quantitative assignment that students should complete as part of case analysis.
