E-commerce & D2C Growth Practice

E-commerce marketing measured in return on ad spend — not traffic and add-to-carts.

Traffic is not the product. Profitable orders are. We build the system behind the campaign — the store, the tracking, the creative testing and the retention flows that turn ad spend into contribution margin.

ShopifyStore, site and acquisition

A D2C brand lives or dies on what it costs to acquire a paying customer. Everything else — the reach, the impressions, the engagement — is a proxy. We have built and scaled Shopify stores from zero pixel history for Wallchitra, Studio Vaidik and Hiranya.

The Real Problem

You do not have a traffic problem.
You have a margin problem.

Six patterns we see in almost every D2C account we audit. Pick the one that sounds like your month.

What this looks like
Sessions are up. Orders are flat. And nobody can name the campaign that produced the last profitable month.
What it is costing you

Your closers spend most of the week on people who were never going to buy — and the ones who were, get called last.

How Avikosh fixes it

AI scores audiences on basket value and purchase intent, so spend follows the customers who actually buy.

  • Intent-led targeting
  • Budget filtering
  • Basket-value scoring
  • Verified numbers
What this looks like
A premium product is being marketed to a discount audience, because the targeting was never built around basket value.
What it is costing you

The units that carry your margin sit unsold while the cheapest ones do all the work of the launch.

How Avikosh fixes it

Premium-intent campaigns built around basket value, category affinity and repeat-purchase potential.

  • HNI segments
  • Investor campaigns
  • Premium creative
  • Search intent
What this looks like
Carts are abandoned at midnight and recovered three days later — by then they have bought from someone else.
What it is costing you

A cart recovered on day three is usually already a competitor’s order.

How Avikosh fixes it

WhatsApp replies within the hour, then the flow chases the cart until it converts or expires.

  • 60-second reply
  • Auto reminders
  • Audience scoring
  • Owner assignment
What this looks like
A third of the numbers never connect, and the ones that do have no memory of filling in a form.
What it is costing you

You pay for the click, the shipping and the return — on an order that was never profitable.

How Avikosh fixes it

Intent-based campaigns with server-side tracking and optimisation on real purchase events.

  • Intent campaigns
  • Number verification
  • Form logic
  • Fraud filtering
What this looks like
The same three creatives have run for four months, the audience has seen them a dozen times, and the cost per acquisition reflects both.
What it is costing you

Creative fatigue and audience overlap quietly raise your cost until the project stops being viable.

How Avikosh fixes it

Continuous creative testing, audience de-duplication and AI bid optimisation on live data.

  • Creative testing
  • Audience dedup
  • Bid optimisation
  • Faster landing pages
What this looks like
Reporting stops at ROAS, so budget keeps moving toward the cheapest clicks instead of the SKUs that actually make margin.
What it is costing you

Budget decisions get made on session counts instead of margin, so money keeps flowing to cheap clicks.

How Avikosh fixes it

Attribution from ad click to order to contribution margin, on a dashboard you can open at any hour.

  • Conversion tracking
  • Looker dashboards
  • Order attribution
  • Cost per acquisition

Recognise more than two? That is a system problem, not a budget problem.

Services We Run

Six services.
One profitable store.

No bundled retainer. Each one has a defined scope, a number we are measured on and a page you can read before you commit. We run these accounts for Shopify and D2C brands including Wallchitra, Studio Vaidik and Hiranya — store, site and acquisition together rather than split across vendors.

Meta Ads for D2C

Profitable orders from Facebook and Instagram, built on creative testing at volume rather than a boosted post.

Why Avikosh

Why D2C brands stay with us.

FAQ

Questions we get from D2C brands.

By optimising for the purchase, not the click. Server-side tracking sends clean conversion data back to Meta and Google so the algorithms optimise toward buyers rather than browsers. Abandoned carts trigger WhatsApp within the hour, because a cart recovered on day three is usually already a competitor’s order.

Both, and that is the point. Splitting the store, the tracking and the acquisition across three vendors is why most D2C accounts leak. We build the Shopify store, wire the tracking and run the ads together — that is how Wallchitra launched and held 3X ROAS from month one.

It depends on basket value, margin and repeat rate. What matters more is that the spend follows contribution margin — server-side tracking wired to real purchase events, so budget moves toward the SKUs that make money instead of the ones that make noise.

We run accounts across Delhi NCR, Gorakhpur, Kushinagar, Lucknow and pan-India requirements. Tier-2 and tier-3 markets are a different discipline from metros and we plan them separately.

Yes. Campaigns run inside your Google, Meta and CRM accounts with Avikosh as an authorised user. Dashboards, automations and documentation stay with you if the engagement ends.

Orders usually start within the first two weeks of launch. The meaningful signal — a stable cost per acquisition and a predictable return on ad spend — typically takes six to ten weeks, because the platforms need enough purchase data to learn from.
