Dave-Anthony Smith's Linkedin Analytics

Focused on customer retention growth and marketing strategy, I help consumer brands transform their businesses for long-term success. Key Career Achievements: -> Zero to $3 million annual revenue in 4 years (with just 2 takeout-only restaurant locations) -> 3 consecutive years of profitability -> 15,000+ loyalty program members, contributing 9% ($300K) to annual gross revenue -> Customer lifetime value as high as $3,188 from an average order value of $25 -> 99% customer retention rate -> $500,000+ in first-year revenue for a vegan brand Out of this personal journey of using retention to drive growth emerged two ventures: 1. Retention School - educational content for consumer brands looking to create sticky customers (coming soon) 2. Pointae - fractional marketing consultancy I am a firm believer that for businesses to thrive sustainably, prioritizing retention on par with acquisition is essential. I value building genuine connections and would love to start a conversation about your business goals and challenges. Let's not just connect; let's shape success together. Shoot me a DM, and let's make things happen!
