GTM Automation for E-commerce Brands
D2C brands expanding into B2B face a learning curve. The playbooks that work for consumer acquisition don't translate to wholesale and retail partnerships. You need systematic outreach that builds B2B pipeline without distracting from your core D2C business.

D2C Brand expanding to B2B
The Problem
B2B wholesale was an afterthought. Founder handling all retailer outreach manually when time allowed.
What We Did
Built automated retailer identification and outreach. Created tiered follow-up based on retailer size.
The Outcome
Wholesale pipeline: $0 → $500K in 6 months. Founder time on B2B: 10 hrs → 2 hrs/week. 12 new retail partnerships.
Timeframe: 8 weeks | Client anonymized per NDA
Why Not Just Hire More People?
It's a fair question. For e-commerce & d2c companies, here's why automation often wins:
Cost Comparison
Typical budget: $200-800/month tooling vs. $5-8K/month for an SDR. Automation handles the work of 2-3 additional hires.
Consistency at Scale
Automation doesn't have bad days. Every lead gets the same quality treatment, every time.
Compliance Built-In
Automated audit trails and blacklist sync. No human error risk on compliance-critical operations.
