I have some "Uncomfortable Truths":
When the market is flush, a great product can mask a "leaky bucket" . But when the efficiency dries up, you realise you weren't building demand, you were buying it.
Your first purchase is a win (customer acquisition cost), but your second purchase is where your actual business begins (lifetime value).
Pushing for a higher Average Order Value (AOV) without increasing the buyer's intent doesn't mean more profit; it just increases the likelihood of a refund.
If your revenue only spikes during sales, you haven't built a ; you’ve trained your to wait for a discount.
We are so obsessed with tracking metrics that we’ve stopped optimising for the things that actually drive a purchase decision.
Stop optimising for what you can track and start building for what actually converts.
