E-commerce & D2C

Cart abandonment is the single largest leak in online retail. Most of your revenue is sitting in baskets nobody came back to.

70.2%

of online shopping carts are abandoned before checkout

What we do about it

We go and get the buyer back.

Retargeting is the highest-return play in this sector because the intent already exists: the buyer has told you what they want and then left. Everything else is more expensive.

We layer that with paid search, paid social and programmatic where it makes the target cheaper to hit, and we report all of it into one attribution model.

What we're measured on

  • 01
    ROAS
  • 02
    Cost per acquisition
  • 03
    New-customer revenue
  • 04
    Basket recovery rate

How we run it here

What actually changes in this vertical.

Generic retargeting underperforms in every sector for different reasons. These are the specific things we do in E-commerce & D2C.

  • 01
    Catalogue-fed dynamic creative, so every SKU generates its own units
  • 02
    Intent-split windows: browse, add-to-basket and checkout-start bid separately
  • 03
    New-customer and returning-customer budgets held apart, so acquisition is not flattered by repeat buyers
  • 04
    Promotional calendar synced to bidding, so spend follows the offer
  • 05
    Creative refreshed against best-selling lines rather than on a fixed cycle

What we do about it

Cart abandonment is the single largest leak in online retail. Most of your revenue is sitting in baskets nobody came back to. We buy against the conversion, not the click, so the budget follows the buyers who actually complete.

How we are measured

On ROAS, cost per acquisition, new-customer revenue and basket recovery rate. Agreed before anything goes live.
