Why E‑Commerce & D2C Fundraising Is Different
Investors judge D2C brands on unit economics and behavior data, not just revenue charts.
True Contribution Margin
After shipping, returns, discounts, and paid media.
CAC & Payback Stability
Consistent acquisition costs and realistic payback windows.
Retention & Repeat Purchase
Cohort behavior, subscriptions, and reorder rates.
Operational Leverage
Inventory planning, fulfillment, and returns control.
Scalable Channels
Paid, organic, affiliates, and retail where relevant.
Capital Use & Profit Path
How dollars turn into scale without killing margins.
We design investor acquisition strategies that reflect how E‑Commerce & D2C investors actually think—not generic startup narratives.
Who We Work With
Strong Fit
We work best with e‑commerce and D2C brands that:
- Have traction: revenue, repeat purchase, solid contribution margins.
- Can explain CAC, payback, and retention clearly.
- Have a credible plan to use capital to scale profitably.
- Want a serious investor pipeline, not generic lead generation.
Not a Fit
We are not the right partner for:
- Unprofitable growth with no path to margin improvement.
- Unclear or inconsistent unit economics.
- Teams seeking guaranteed fundraising outcomes.
- Campaigns unwilling to follow compliant marketing rules.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do D2C investors look at first?
They start with contribution margin, CAC/payback stability, and repeat purchase, then evaluate scale potential.
Is Reg CF a good fit for e‑commerce brands?
Yes when you have strong customer love and a simple story; larger checks often use Reg D 506(c) or Reg A+.
How do you qualify investors so founders don’t waste time?
We bake qualification into forms, messaging, and nurture so calls are with serious, informed investors.
How long does it take to launch?
Most campaigns take 6–14 weeks, depending on structure, funnel build, and creative needs.
Do you guarantee fundraising results?
No. We provide the investor acquisition system, not a guarantee of capital raised.
