Growth for D2C brands that protects margins

A full-funnel team to scale acquisition, improve conversion and lift retention, using first-party data and rapid testing.

Unlimited creative production included
No commission on ad spend
Evidence-led weekly experiments

Creative-first scaling

Rising CPMs and ad fatigue mean D2C performance is now driven by creative systems, not one-off campaigns. We build a repeatable pipeline: research, concepting, production, testing and scaling. Winners are identified by message and format, then expanded into new variants rather than endlessly tweaking minor details. With unlimited creative production included, you maintain velocity without relying on inconsistent freelancers.
  • Weekly creative testing cadence
  • Unlimited production capacity
  • Scale winners across channels

Acquire customers efficiently

For D2C brands, acquisition is won or lost on creative and signal quality. We build a channel mix that fits your margin profile and payback targets, then iterate weekly across hooks, angles, offers and formats. Expect a strong focus on social commerce and short-form video, influencer and UGC pipelines, plus Google demand capture where intent is clear. The goal is not just more traffic, but profitable new customers you can retain.

Social commerce and UGC engine

Build an always-on pipeline of UGC, creator whitelisting and native TikTok and Reels formats. Test messaging by objection and use case, then scale winners into paid and shoppable placements.

Paid search and shopping capture

Convert existing demand with Shopping and search campaigns, clean product feeds and landing pages that match intent. Use query insights to improve product titles, bundles and on-site merchandising.

Audience strategy that survives privacy shifts

Strengthen first-party signals, build lookalikes from quality events, and use contextual targeting when needed. Prioritise stable performance over fragile hacks that break when tracking changes.

Convert more at checkout

D2C growth is fragile when conversion rate and site speed are neglected. We run CRO and merchandising improvements that reduce friction from product page to payment. This includes landing page testing, social proof strategy, bundle and upsell design, and checkout optimisation with fast wallets and clear delivery expectations. For brands on Shopify and similar platforms, we prioritise changes that increase revenue per session and contribution margin, not cosmetic redesigns.

Product page and offer testing

Test pricing presentation, bundles, guarantees and proof placement. Use heatmaps and session replays to find where shoppers hesitate, then run structured A/B tests to lift add-to-cart and checkout starts.

Checkout speed and payment options

Reduce drop-off with faster experiences and fewer surprises: shipping clarity, address capture, and wallet payments like Apple Pay. Add BNPL only where it improves conversion without harming margin.

Retargeting that matches behaviour

Build browse, cart and checkout abandonment flows with dynamic product ads and on-site sequences. Coordinate creative and landing pages so returning shoppers see consistent messages and relevant products.

Retention that lifts LTV

D2C brands win long term by turning first purchases into repeat behaviour. We build lifecycle and retention loops across email, SMS and on-site experiences, using segmentation that reflects how customers actually buy. That includes RFM-style groups, predicted value segments, and cohort insights that show what drives second purchase and subscription adoption. Loyalty and referral programmes are designed to improve repeat rate and advocacy without discounting away margin.

Email and SMS automation

Create post-purchase, replenishment and win-back flows triggered by behaviour. Test timing, creative and incentives to increase repeat purchase rate while keeping discounts targeted and controlled.

Subscriptions and replenishment loops

Optimise subscribe and save, bundle replenishment and reorder journeys. Improve onboarding and next-order prompts so subscriptions stabilise cashflow rather than becoming a churn problem.

Loyalty and referral design

Build tiers, rewards and double-sided referrals that customers actually use. Track referral quality and downstream LTV, so advocacy becomes a dependable acquisition channel.

Measurement you can act on

D2C reporting often breaks when tracking changes, platforms over-credit conversions, or retention is ignored. We set up measurement that supports decisions: clear event definitions, reliable first-party capture, and practical testing to estimate true lift. You get a real-time dashboard and a weekly review that connects media, creative, CRO and lifecycle to outcomes like contribution margin, payback and repeat rate.
  • First-party tracking foundations
  • Incrementality-minded testing
  • Real-time reporting dashboard

What do you mean by growth for D2C brands?
For D2C brands, growth means improving the whole system: acquisition efficiency, conversion rate, repeat purchase and contribution margin. It is not only about increasing ad spend or chasing top-line revenue. We connect paid media, creative, CRO and lifecycle into one plan, measured against payback and LTV. This protects margins while building a repeatable engine you can scale.
Which channels work best for D2C brands today?
Most D2C brands benefit from a blend of social commerce and demand capture. Short-form video on TikTok and Instagram can create demand, while Google Search and Shopping capture high intent. The right mix depends on product category, margins and repeat rate. We test quickly and keep only the channels that can hit your CAC and payback targets, rather than spreading budget thin.
How do you build a UGC and creator pipeline?
We treat creator sourcing as an operational system: clear briefs, fast feedback loops, and structured testing by angle and format. Micro-creators often outperform on efficiency because the content feels native and credible. We then build variations from winners, and scale through paid, whitelisting and shoppable formats. The goal is consistent creative velocity, not one viral hit.
How do you improve conversion rate without discounting?
We start by fixing friction: page speed, clarity of value props, stronger proof, better product education, and checkout simplicity. Many lifts come from messaging, layout and trust elements rather than incentives. Discounting is used carefully and only where it increases contribution margin, not just conversion. We also test bundles, subscriptions and upsells that raise AOV without training customers to wait for sales.
Do you work on Shopify checkout and site performance?
Yes. We focus on changes that reduce drop-off and speed up purchase, including payment methods and clearer delivery and returns information. We also look at technical performance basics that affect conversion, like load time and mobile usability. We will recommend the simplest implementation path for your stack, whether that is Shopify theme changes, apps, or a more composable setup if you need it.
How do you lift LTV for D2C brands?
LTV growth usually comes from repeat purchase and retention loops. We build lifecycle programmes across email and SMS, using behaviour and segments such as RFM to trigger the right message at the right time. We also optimise post-purchase onboarding, replenishment, subscriptions and win-back, then add loyalty and referral mechanics that encourage advocacy without relying on heavy discounts.
How do you track performance with privacy changes?
We prioritise first-party event quality and reliable measurement across web and ad platforms. Where needed, we improve tracking with server-side approaches so platforms can optimise even as identifiers degrade. We also use practical incrementality thinking to validate what is truly driving sales. This prevents over-crediting retargeting and helps you understand the real return by channel and tactic.
What is included in your D2C engagement?
You get a cross-functional team covering growth strategy, paid media, creative production, analytics, and conversion and lifecycle optimisation. Unlimited ad creative production is included, and we provide a real-time performance dashboard. Engagements are monthly rolling and we do not charge commission on ad spend. Scope is agreed upfront and then managed through a shared backlog and weekly sprint rhythm.
How quickly can you start and show progress?
We can usually start quickly because you are not hiring multiple roles. The first step is a fast diagnostic across creative, account structure, funnel performance and lifecycle, then we agree priorities and launch the first tests. You should expect early signal within weeks from creative and CRO work, while retention and brand demand build compounding gains over time through consistent iteration.
