DTC brands monitor competitors like hawks but convert like pigeons. The difference between 7-figure and 8-figure brands isn't copying what works, it's understanding WHY it works. Let me show you the $10M secret:

You're overspending on paid advertising, and it's completely avoidable. I constantly see brands throw more money at ads without improving how their site converts that traffic into paying customers. This leads to: 1. High costs 2. Low returns 3. Wasted opportunities For one

The hardest CRO tests drive the biggest revenue gains. We've watched brands play it safe while their competition steals market share with radical customer experience overhauls. Here's what actually moves the needle: - Testing discount tiers to find the perfect balance for

The AI search revolution isn't killing your traffic...yet. But it will if you're not prepared. While everyone's panicking about AEO and AI-driven search, we're seeing something more fundamental: AI tools navigate sites exactly like humans with accessibility needs. AI isn't

I shouldn’t have to say this… But if you're not selling electronics or certain consumer goods (which got exemptions from tariffs), you should've been prepping yesterday. I've watched this movie before. When COGS rise, weak brands slash quality, raise prices blindly, or worse

Failed A/B tests aren't wasted money, they're conversion gold IF you know how to mine them. One "failed" test revealed our client's discount-sensitive Google traffic and lead to a targeted promo strategy that significantly lifted desktop conversions in just a few weeks. Every
