DTC brand · Growth lead

Client

Challenger brand in remote/mobile WiFi services and GPS pet location collars — two distinct DTC product lines, one unified growth objective.

Campaign goals

Drive net-new buyer acquisition at a target CPA of $100 or less, while simultaneously building brand awareness beyond existing social channels.

Why managed service

The client wanted agile direct-access media planning without the bureaucratic layers of a traditional media agency slowing decisions and diluting strategy.

Why Sellrly

Depth of experience married with AI tech helping DTC brands reach performance goals, a result-oriented operating model, and a demonstrated track record of fast human-based execution.

One point of accountability. One operating team. Performance reported against the number you set.

What drove the outcome

Five inputs. One outcome.

We design every Sellrly engagement so that a few crisp inputs do the heavy lifting — and the results show up fast.

  • Proprietary first-party audience data

    Sellrly’s buyer database identified net-new, in-market audiences beyond Meta and Google’s walled gardens.

  • Fully managed execution

    No agency handoffs, no briefing delays. Media planning, buying, and optimization ran through a single point of accountability.

  • Open-web reach

    Programmatic placements across premium publishers gave the brand incremental reach with audiences it had never previously touched.

  • Speed to optimization

    A short learning curve meant the campaign was performing at scale within the first two weeks, not the first two months.

  • Dual-objective campaign architecture

    Performance (CPA) and awareness goals were balanced simultaneously across both product lines, maximizing media efficiency.

Direct-access execution. Speed to optimization. Net-new audiences. Plainly reported results.

Stop choosing between slow agencies and expensive headcount.
