MuscleTech Peptide 185 Global Launch – Case Study (2024)
Role: Associate Director, Influencer Relations & Community Engagement
I led strategy, copywriting, PR execution, and creator partnerships for the global launch of MuscleTech’s flagship innovation, Peptide 185 (powered by patented DL-185™ dileucine) — the first commercial dipeptide product of its kind.
Project Overview
Launched in early 2024, Peptide 185 was positioned as a science-first evolution beyond traditional leucine and BCAAs. It targeted serious lifters and bodybuilders with a premium, authoritative tone focused on clinical differentiation and superior absorption. Key messaging I developed included “immediately elevate protein synthesis” and “forcing your muscle into an anabolic state.” The product later became the cornerstone of MuscleTech’s broader Peptide Series platform.
My Contributions
Copywriting & On-Site Experience: I wrote the full product page and dedicated landing page copy, including mechanism explanations, clinical study breakdowns, usage guidance, and premium positioning.

PR & Hype Activation: I designed and facilitated a custom “top secret briefcase” PR kit seeded to 25 key creators and industry partners. This drove authentic pre-launch content and built significant hype through Reels and TikToks.
Creator & Influencer Program: I managed end-to-end partnerships with creators (including Che Rush) and supplement industry reviewers, coordinating educational + hype content that balanced science with excitement.
