OUR SOLUTION
We Will Run A Financial Evaluation Of Your Paid Acquisition Program

Customer Lifetime Value + CAC: LTV Report
Understand the true value of a customer to your business. Then, determine your LTV:CAC ratio, which is what investors look at to determine healthy eCommerce brands.

03
SKU-Specific Economic Breakdowns
We’ll dive into your top 3-5 SKUs, identify each product’s Gross Margin, then work from there to come up with individual CAC targets which you can use for your media buying.

04
Account Benchmarking
Know how you’re tracking vs industry standards. Get benchmarked against DTC brands of similar size & industry.

05
Optional Paid Media Channel Audit
We’ll also audit your current paid media program across platforms if you wanted. This will help connect the dots betweenour other reports and your actual media buying.
