Why E-commerce marketing keeps failing to deliver
Paid dependency with no owned channel fallback
When Meta or Google increases CPCs, brands with no SEO, email, or organic social presence see CAC spike with nowhere to go. Paid should amplify, not replace, organic and owned channels.
iOS and cookie changes killed your attribution
Post-iOS 14, reported ROAS in Meta is significantly overstated. Brands are overspending on channels that look profitable in-platform but aren't converting. First-party data and modelled attribution are now table stakes.
High acquisition, low LTV
One-time buyers are the most expensive customers to acquire. Brands without active retention — email sequences, SMS, loyalty, subscription nudges — are essentially paying full CAC for every order, indefinitely.
How Heptism works for E-commerce companies
Full-funnel paid with proper attribution
Meta, Google Shopping, TikTok, and Pinterest campaigns built on first-party data, modelled attribution, and incrementality testing — not platform-reported ROAS that overstates returns by 30–60%.
Organic search for top-of-funnel scale
SEO targeting the product category, ingredient, use-case, and comparison queries your buyers search before they know your brand exists. Organic traffic doesn't pause when your budget does.
Retention systems that compound LTV
Email automation, SMS sequences, post-purchase flows, and win-back campaigns that turn one-time buyers into subscriptions and subscriptions into brand advocates.
The E-commerce companies we do our best work with
DTC brands scaling past $1M ARR
Consumer brands that have found product-market fit and need to scale acquisition without destroying margin.
Subscription e-commerce
Box subscriptions, replenishment models, and membership commerce with a focus on LTV maximisation and churn reduction.
D2C international expansion
UK, Australian, and US brands entering new English-speaking markets — new storefronts, localised SEO, and country-specific paid campaigns.
