document: growth teardown subject: your funnel billed: $0

the gap between good traffic and great revenue is almost never about the traffic.

— we checked. 200+ audits.

it's the post-click experience. the checkout flow. the email that should've been sent three days ago. the creative that looks like everyone else's. we run a four-pillar teardown on your site before the first call — then fix the leaks one engine at a time.

01 the thesis

three visitors hit your site yesterday. all three left. here's the ledger.

you paid to acquire every one of them. the platforms got paid. the leak happened after the click — which means the leak is fixable without spending another dollar on traffic.

visitor log — yesterday cost to acquire
visitor 01
"couldn't parse your value prop in the 4 seconds you gave them."

no hero message. no headline. no reason to stay. bounced before reading a word of copy.

paid & lost $23
visitor 02
"wanted to know what made you different. couldn't find it."

opened three competitor tabs. one of them answered the question better. closed yours.

paid & lost $31
visitor 03
"added to cart. saw unexpected friction at checkout. closed the tab."

they'll never see your abandoned cart email — because you don't have one. or it's 18 months stale.

paid & lost $28

we fix those systems one engine at a time so your growth actually scales.

02 the system

four systems. one revenue map. priced like a rate card, not a mystery.

most agencies optimize one channel and hand you a report. we built four systems that talk to each other — because that's the only way scale holds. each pillar is a working playbook with its own rhythm, deliverables, and metrics.

pillar what ships starting at
acquisition meta · tiktok · google managed end-to-end. post-purchase survey always-on. funnel architecture, behavioral audiences, incrementality framing — not just roas. $2,250/momonth-to-month the playbook →
creatives 8–12 net-new creatives per month. ugc creator pipeline with rights secured upfront. every creative carries a hypothesis; winners get dedicated pdp variants. $3,250/momonth-to-month the playbook →
conversion pdp rebuilds against the 14-point framework. bi-weekly cro test cadence. shopify devs in-house — no agency handoffs, no six-week tickets. $1,750/momonth-to-month the playbook → most operators start here ↓
retention 8 core flows live in 60 days, welcome through win-back. per-sku replenishment timing from order data. campaigns planned to behavior, not the calendar. $3,750/momonth-to-month the playbook →
the full engine — all four pillars, one team.
starting at $10,000/mo · save ~17% vs. pillars purchased separately · weekly slack standup · monthly p&l review

no long-term contracts on any line. we'd rather earn the next month than lock you into twelve.

03 the teardown

we ran the system on a real site. this is what week one looks like.

the same four-pillar audit we run on every prospect — no template, no horoscope. below: real findings from the teardown, exactly as they appeared in the document.
conversion

the pdp scores 3 of 14 against our framework.

no above-the-fold hook. no reviews module. no nutrition panel. no comparison chart. no faq. it's a price tag and a bullet list.

critical
acquisition

the homepage has no headline.

no value prop. no "why glass." no founder. no press. visitors bounce in under 4 seconds because nothing earns the scroll.

high
retention

no visible lifecycle program.

one popup. zero flows we can detect. for a brand selling a perfect replenishment category (granola), this is the highest-leverage gap on the entire site.

critical
creative

brand voice exists. it's on the wrong page.

"in 100 years we'll look at plastic the way we look at lead." that's a great line — buried on the about page. homepage and pdp say nothing.

high
kill this
  • $12.99 single jar vs $39.99 four-pack — a $1 savings is a math problem, not a bulk incentive
  • subscription at $29.99 buried below the fold — best offer, worst placement
  • generic newsletter popup with no reason or hook
keep this
  • the product — real wedge: glass, anti-plastic, family-founded
  • retail placement — real retail validation, surface it on the homepage
  • the founder story — it exists, it's just on the wrong page

we don't bill for the teardown. we bill for what we ship after.

more traffic.
more revenue from the traffic you already paid for.

04 how we work
01

we start implementing in week one.

no 6-week discovery decks. by day 7 you'll see real changes shipped. by day 30, the bleeding stops.

02

every test gets documented.

win or loss. you benefit from patterns validated across dozens of brands. losses never get repeated.

03

we measure how you measure.

revenue, not impressions. if it doesn't show up in your p&l, it doesn't count. weekly slack reporting.

04

no long-term contracts.

any service, any time. we'd rather earn the next month than lock you into twelve.

06 the growth club

not every brand is ready for a full growth team. the playbooks still are.

the growth club is our operator membership: the same frameworks we run on $10M+ engagements, one playbook every wednesday, a live teardown every month, and a slack room of 800+ dtc operators comparing notes.

$99/mo
or $990/yr — two months free · cancel anytime
