As the co-founder of ATTN Labs, I help growth stage eCommerce brands (10-100m arr) scale their new customer acquisition.

We do this through relentless problem solving,

focused on driving new customer acquisition.

This means relentlessly testing campaings and tracking results.

Looks like this:
↳clear reporting & communication
↳incrementality focused marketing
↳real-time reporting with your team
↳solving your problems (not the ones we've decided are important)

We've worked with some of the fastest growing brands of 2022-2023 in these categories:
↳ retail
↳food & Bev
↳snacks
↳supplements

We like to work closely with a select group of clients.

This allows us to work with them on:
↳ CRO
↳ creative development
↳ influencer recruiting and whitelisting
↳ thoughtful channel expansion
↳ retention, upsell/crosss-sell programs
↳ product bundling and offer creation

Basically we like to take on the whole DTC growth piece,

but, 

we are open to starting small.

I saw this infographic in a tweet by Neil Patel and it got me thinking…

Brands spend nearly 20x more on marketing channels with higher CAC and lower ROI.

That’s because the confidence in channels that actually perform better (like influencers) is low due to traditional measurement systems and poor “CFO justifiability”.

It’s easy to show how you spent $5000 on google ads and how it made you $8000. That’s super finance-friendly.

It’s hard to prove how 35 instagram posts from last week influenced a spike in retail sales this weekend. 

Brands just can't explain it to their CFO on a Friday dashboard.

We spoke to experts in the field of marketing measurement and wrote a book with what we learned. Thanks for contributing, Dan & Sasha! 

It’s THE best read in the game if you want to walk into a leadership meeting and come out with more budget for your influencer program.

If you’re an influencer marketer or marketing leader who “just knows” influencer marketing works but finds it hard to justify... comment “CFO” and I’ll send you a copy of the book 😉
