E-commerce becomes more sustainable when acquisition and retention teams share customer, product and margin information. Paid media should not be optimised independently of repeat purchase, returns and fulfilment quality.

Acquire around product economics

Group campaigns by margin, stock, demand and customer potential rather than treating every product equally. Feed changes in availability and promotion into media decisions quickly.

Remove conversion friction

Review product detail, size or specification clarity, delivery promises, payment, mobile usability and checkout errors. Use customer-service questions to find missing information.

Build the post-purchase journey

Confirmation, fulfilment updates, onboarding, review requests, replenishment and relevant cross-sell shape repeat value. Coordinate marketing messages with operational reality.

Measure customer contribution

Compare acquisition cost, gross margin, returns and repeat behaviour by source and cohort. Avoid assuming that all first-order revenue creates the same long-term value.

Implementation checklist
  • Media aligned with stock and margin
  • Website friction connected to service feedback
  • Acquisition evaluated with repeat value

Frequently asked questions

Should new and existing customers be separated?

Yes where possible, because acquisition cost and expected value differ.

Is a high ROAS always healthy?

Not if it depends on heavy discounting, existing demand, low-margin products or uncounted returns.
