Podcast 🎧 On today’s episode of the DTC pod, we’re talking to Benjamin Smith, CEO and founder of Disco, about his company’s growth journey and the several factors that contributed to its success thus far. Here’s the bottom line: men have skin too ( *gasp!* ) Tired of sifting through brands that didn’t speak to his own skin problems, Benjamin founded Disco, a company that is breaking down the barriers and filling in the market gap for men’s skincare. ‍The takeaways 👇 Starting with a great brand Good branding is the heart and soul of a company. A great brand is what distinguishes one company from another. It's what makes them memorable. Nowadays, it's not enough to have a good product or service; it's also important to have a solid vision, mission statement, and values that people can identify with. Your brand is the first impression that you can make on a consumer and we asked Benjamin what he thinks qualifies a company as having a good brand. Here’s what he said: - Confidence. Make sure your company is always coming from a place of authority. - Visual identity. Excite consumers with an eye-catching and visually memorable identity that relates to your brand’s ecosystem. - Communication. From your website to your social media to your packaging, focus on crafting consistent messaging that aligns with your target audience's wants and needs. Focusing on the fundamentals Success in all of its forms can be broken down to consistently focusing on and applying fundamentals. To Benjamin, it’s not about the newest, flashiest widgets and upsell/cross-sell apps, but about figuring out what works in your current marketing funnel and executing it consistently. “I think a lot of people… Spend more time focusing on distractions like ‘what’s the latest upsell app or cross-sell app or live chat app’ whereas they really should be focusing on the fundamentals, which are like the basic part of a marketing funnel.” A note to remember: Progress and growth more often than not hide behind basic solutions and underused insights! 💰 What Benjamin would do with an extra $50K: Benjamin’s plan splits the grant into three spending segments: - 20K would focus on growing on TikTok and testing various creator/influencer strategies. - 20K would go to performing a localized YouTube brand lift study in key markets to try to understand how that impacts TOF, MOF, and BOF CPA. - 10K would be for hiring an affiliate marketing consultant to scale that part of the business. 👉 Listen to the full episode with Benjamin Smith [here!]( Sponsor It’s Not Gambling If You Know You’re Going to Win! Q4 influencer marketing budgets are in. And now it’s up to you to place your bets and turn that advertising budget into more revenue for your company. 🤯 Thankfully, you have an ace up your sleeve. You’ve already partnered with #paid, and you’re seeing high ROAS. You know your creator marketing campaigns generate positive results, but the real power comes from understanding HOW and WHY.

A-a-already?! 👀 It’s time ya’ll. Time to get promo testing, that is. ⏰ Q4 is right around the corner, and September/early October are PRIME months to test different promo structures for brands who are newer to testing offers or want to shake things up. The [most prepared and marvelous Meta team]( we know are currently working with brands internationally to test offer structures on Facebook as we head into a prosperous Q4. Here are a few offers they’re testing: 🤔 $ vs % off offers Dollar and percent off can be perceived differently! We recommend testing both – even if the value is nearly identical – to understand what resonates with your audience. 🤑 Tiered discounts Consider offering a percentage or dollar amount off orders over a certain price point! Tiered offers can work well to combine free shipping (eg. Save up to $100 PLUS enjoy free 1-day shipping). 🎁 Gift with purchase offers Find a gift that’s relevant to your flagship product and offer it for free to purchasers. People LOVE free stuff. 🕒 Gift card/promo code with purchase The [Pilothouse team]( recommends promo codes with an expiration date to push urgency and drive repeat sales XX days after the initial purchase. 🆓 Free shipping offers If free shipping isn’t already included with all purchases on your site, test it out! Why all the testing now? 🤨 It’s best to head into BFCM knowing that your offer will hit instead of testing mid-November and pivoting at the last minute. This way, you can take the winning offer and: - Incorporate it into your November promo calendar. - Prep Facebook, TikTok, and email creative with the winning offer. - Tailor ad copy using the offer. And ultimately, crush Q4 💸💸💸 Happy testing! 🔬 Sponsor Tis’ The Season... ..to give yourself the gift of targeting customers who want to buy! 🎁 [Black Crow AI]( is the magic marketing tool that helps you spend your holiday advertising budget wisely by using one-click AI to group your customers into profiles based on their intent to buy.
