Smart GTM for Modern Businesses in E-Commerce & D2C

The world’s fastest-moving industry is also the hardest to sustain. While D2C brands scale fast, many plateau at $5M–$10M ARR without clarity on positioning, sustainable acquisition, or retention. We help e-commerce businesses build intelligent GTM systems that drive revenue, loyalty, and efficiency.

The Industry at a Glance

D2C boom: Over 800+ funded D2C startups in India, with new categories (pet care, nutraceuticals, fashion, clean beauty).

Trends: AI personalization, subscription commerce, omni-channel retail, loyalty ecosystems.

Global e-commerce market to hit $6.3T by 2026.

India alone: projected $350B market by 2030, driven by Tier 2/3 adoption.

Disruptions: Apple ATT changes → rising CAC. “Zero-Party Data” is the new gold.

Pain Points & Pressures
