When you need thisSix triggers

If any of these are true, the dashboard is lying to you.

ROAS looks great and the bank balance doesn’t.

Platform ROAS counts revenue, not margin, returns or the cost of getting the parcel to the door.

Growth only happens when you discount.

Every sale event spikes revenue and trains customers to wait for the next one.

Meta costs went up and the plan didn’t change.

Same audiences, same creative, rising CPMs, shrinking margin.

Mobile visitors browse and leave.

Most traffic is on a phone, and the store was designed on a laptop.

Customers buy once and disappear.

Every order is paid for at full acquisition cost, every time.

You’re launching a D2C brand in the UAE.

No data, no audience, no proof yet. The first job is finding the first profitable channel.

What ROAS do you actually need? Work it out from your margin.

A 4X ROAS can lose money and a 2.5X ROAS can print it. It depends on margin and the cost of getting each order to the customer. This is the number we plan spend around.

Questions buyers ask firstFAQ

What buyers ask first.

What ROAS should a D2C brand target?

Start from break-even ROAS: average order value divided by contribution per order before ads. The calculator above does it in seconds. Anything above break-even makes money on the first order; repeat purchases raise how much you can afford.

Do you work with Shopify stores?

Yes. Store conversion on Shopify, from product pages to checkout and mobile speed, is part of the plan rather than someone else’s problem.

Can you launch a D2C brand from zero?

Yes. That is zero-to-one work: positioning, the offer, the first channel that pays back and the unit economics to prove before scaling. Our F&B launch reached an LTV of 8X its acquisition cost.

Will we have to discount to grow?

No. Our D2C home and lifestyle account doubled ROAS from 10X to 20X on the same budget with no discounting, by moving spend to what carried margin.

How do you handle cash-on-delivery orders?

COD is common in the UAE and distorts ROAS if it counts orders that never get paid for. Reporting tracks orders through to delivery so decisions are made on revenue that arrived.

Do you run marketplaces like Amazon and Noon?

Our focus is your own store, where you keep the margin and the customer data. Marketplace work is scoped case by case.
