Ryan Li exhibits a clear creative vision and enthusiasm, as showcased in collaborative projects like the 'Mural Muffin Takeover', where punctuality and clear campaign objectives made for a largely positive experience. That said, prospective collaborators should note that there have been instances—such as during the 'Secret LA Sip & Stroll' campaign—where timely communication, detailed asset quality, and adherence to deadlines have been challenges. To make the most of a project with Ryan, it's advisable to set clear guidelines and maintain proactive follow-ups to ensure all aspects of the campaign meet the intended standards.

Secret LA Sip & Stroll

Working with Ryan Li of The Last Bookstore on the 'Secret LA Sip & Stroll' campaign was a major letdown. Timeliness was a constant issue—multiple deadlines were missed and responses were delayed to the point where coordination on critical touring logistics suffered. The professionalism was lacking, as communication was sporadic and the assets provided for co-branding were far below quality standards, which directly hampered the tour execution and real-time engagement requirements. Furthermore, the enthusiasm and creativity promised in the gig scope were virtually nonexistent. Instead of a thorough, collaborative effort, I often found myself chasing updates and clarifications, undermining the potential impact of the promotion. Overall, the entire experience was frustrating and disorganized, leaving little confidence in their ability to manage a brand promotion effectively.

Mural Muffin Takeover

Working with Ryan Li and The Last Bookstore on the 'Mural Muffin Takeover' campaign was a largely positive experience. They were exceptionally professional and punctual, providing clear campaign objectives and the necessary brand assets on time. Their enthusiasm for the creative merge of art and pastry was evident, and their collaborative spirit made it easy to align the mural’s aesthetic with the custom pastry rollout. That said, there were a few minor hiccups with the thoroughness of initial graphic guidelines, which led to a bit of back-and-forth during the setup phase. Overall, Ryan's team demonstrated great dedication and creativity throughout the project, warranting a solid 4-star review.
