"DTC operators need all the time they can get back. If youre running a brand you need to handle: Marketing/advertising Inventory tracking Warehousing Fulfillment Social And a million other things. Here's the truth: You can put a team in place but DTC brands are generally fairly lean. Its all hands on deck all the time if youre an operator. The truth is that protecting your time and only working on high-leverage parts of the business are the only ways youll grow. And in my (biased) opinion outsourcing sales tax filings and management is one of the highest-leverage things you can do. So many DTC"

"If your DTC business doesnt work with Facebook ads it likely wont work at all. Heres the truth: I see lots of DTC owners and operators say you need to test a ton of different channels (Pinterest Snapchat referrals etc) to see what works. I couldnt disagree more. When you diversify like this you take resources away from the most proven DTC growth channelFacebook ads. The I in ROI is not just cash investment but focus and energy investment as well. Say what you will but theyre the most tried and true form of DTC advertising. The entire industry would barely exist without FB ads. If FB ads dont"

"DTC snack brands are notoriously hard to scale. Factoring in lower AOVs spoilage and bulky shipping there isnt much room for margin. That said its not impossible. You just need to get creative in how you sell. 1) Obsessed Customer Base Each snack brand I know of that is doing well in DTC appeals to a movement or sentiment extremely well. Keto carnivore low-FODMAP that sort of thing. A lot of this comes down to positioning but the more you can appeal to a hyper-specific consumer segment the more theyll be willing to pay (and the less willing theyll be to look for alternatives). 2) Higher Order"

"Heres a fun story: Back when I was running DTC stores day-to-day I had a hunch: If I could rank for a ton of long-tail keywords I could generate a ton of sales on organic traffic alone. This led me to start Dear Avaa company geared towards women selling gifts for all kinds of people in your life. We had gifts for Moms teachers pregnancies weddingsyou name it. The catch No matter the SKU the product itself was the same (see the picture below). We just changed the background of each gift to have a relevant messagewhich of course cost almost nothing. And let me tell you it sold well. It worked."

"Ive observed two DTC founder Archetypes: 1) Founders obsessed with brand. Youll go to their site and see studio photography and cutesy animations Youll open social apps and see them sponsoring influencers. Youll scroll LinkedIn and see them getting press. Theyre masters of creating buzz. And dont get me wrong thats great. But they often suffer when it comes to performance. These founders are often not great with Facebook ads and are often overly controlling about ad creatives and copy. Even still they get tailwinds because of the brand work theyve put in. 2) Founders who see everything as a"

"I ignored important advice and had to relearn it the hard way. Heres the story (and a cautionary tale): Six years ago my friend and former Airbnb colleague @gustaf was driving me down to Mountain View to speak at a YC Growth Bootcamp. On that drive he told me something I remember to this day: The misconception with growth is that it doesnt matter if you dont have good retention. It made complete sense. But I still ignored the advice. Instead I started a low-retention business that was essentially a big SEO-hack. It was a jewelry brand. A short while into running it I faced a massive problem:"

My time at YC changed that for me. Let me explain: I come from a DTC background. Lean teams No outside money Solid cashflow but no massive outcomes And for the record I loved it. But when @mrkevnliu and I decided to start @NumeralTax we had a moment of realization: Building a SaaS business to serve a massive market requires engineers sales and tons of other heavy expenses upfront.

"Your ads should be dumbed down. Too many DTC companies commit the same marketing sin: Prioritizing being clever instead of clear. Certain brands are still making ads that take a few seconds to get. That works as a [--] sec TV spotbut not as a social ad. With TV ads your viewer is forced to watch your entire spot. With Facebook and TikTok ads theyre not. More than that no true thinking should be required to understand the problem youre solving or the product youre offering. It should be clear as day.
