1. Why You Should Keep Reading
Direct-to-consumer brands control every touch-point—but that power fades fast if CAC creeps up and conversion stalls. I spent the past month condensing 50+ campaign audits and fresh 2025 data into one action-packed playbook. Today’s newsletter pulls out the highest-impact nuggets so you can execute before your competitors finish coffee. ☕
2. Five Growth Levers You Can Pull Today
3. Metric Benchmarks to Beat in 2025
- CAC ≤ ⅓ of 12-month LTV
- Blended ROAS 2–4× (healthy niches)
- Mobile CVR 2–4 % | Desktop 4–6 %
- App DAU/MAU ≥ 20 %
💡 Reality check: If your numbers trail these marks, start with CRO fixes (site speed, one-page checkout) before pouring more paid traffic.
4. Emerging Tech Radar
- AR Try-Ons – Cut returns & spike AOV.
- AI Creative Engines – Generate ad variants in hours, not weeks.
