Industries
eCommerce and retail buyers respond to numbers, not features - they've heard every "grow your revenue" pitch and tune most of them out. We've booked 100+ meetings for eCommerce brands by leading with ROI and growth metrics specific to their category, not a generic platform pitch.
Our Approach
Retail and eCommerce buyers are numbers-first: conversion rate, AOV, CAC, margin. We open with a category-specific number or benchmark rather than a feature list, and we address the actual decision-maker directly - at DTC brands that's often the founder or CMO, not a buried marketing coordinator.
Buyer Personas
Founder / CEO (DTC brands)
Champion + budget owner
At smaller brands, owns growth strategy and budget directly - fastest path to a real conversation.
CMO / VP Marketing
Champion
Owns growth metrics and is the most likely to feel a specific gap directly.
VP eCommerce / Digital
Technical evaluator
Cares about platform integration and operational fit alongside growth impact.
CFO / Finance Lead
Budget approver
Signs off on spend tied to a clear ROI case, especially at larger retailers.
What To Expect

Lead Generation for Vendors Selling to MGAs & Specialty Insurance Program Administrators
Managing general agents and specialty program administrators aren't retail brokers or carriers - they're a distinct, relationship-driven buyer that generic insurance-industry outbound misses entirely.
Lead Generation for Cafe & Coffee Shop Operations Software
Selling operations software to independent cafes and coffee shops is nothing like selling to a chain or an enterprise retailer. The buyer is the owner, the margins are thin, and the sales cycle has to move at the speed of a single person's attention.
Lead Generation for E-Commerce Development Agencies
E-commerce dev shops compete in a market where every prospect has already talked to five agencies with a similar portfolio. Here's why a good portfolio isn't a differentiator anymore, and what actually wins the outbound conversation.
