About us

Power Digital is a growth marketing firm fueled by technology and driven by a talented team of consultative marketers, creatives, analysts and technologists. We ignite revenue growth and brand recognition for leading and emerging brands around the world. Marketing is no longer about a singular offer or what your brand presents visually. It’s a sprawling journey with countless touch points. Consumers shop with their values and gravitate towards brands they trust. They want to be a part of a tribe. A story. What’s more, the path to purchase needs to be fast, frictionless and personable. The media landscape is vastly different, too. Measurement is smarter but also harder than ever. Marketing should be a strategic business driver, a road that leads to profitable revenue growth and brand lift. We take the guesswork out of marketing, making the most from your investment so you get what you really care about: growth, handled from planning to execution. Our experienced team develops custom marketing playbooks fueled by your data, market trends and industry insights to set you apart from the competition, designed to drive revenue and brand lift. Our proprietary technology, nova, analyzes a company’s digital ecosystem using multiple first-party data sources to build informed and custom marketing plans. And, nova de-risks investments by optimizing capital allocation––putting marketers, operators and the investment community in a strategic seat at the table. When you know the customer journey, singular channels don’t matter because you’re building a strategic program. That’s what we are in the business of: igniting growth and brand recognition for the brands we are lucky to call our clients.

    Don't optimize yourself to death. Chief Strategy Officer Ben Dutter shares this common cycle related to CAC, below.

    You can manufacture whatever CAC or MER you want in the short term. Most brands look at some kind of "blended" efficiency metric: • MER: total revenue / total marketing costs • CAC: total marketing costs / new customers Let's focus on CAC for now because it's a little trickier. Usually the "point" of paid advertising is to drive incremental new customers. Ideally your business has a better lifetime value than just the average order value (LTV:AOV ratio >1), and if that's the case then I usually recommend focusing on CAC instead of MER. If your business acquires 1,000 new customers per month, and you're spending $50k in paid media, that's a $50 CAC ($50,000 / 1,000 = $50). Assuming you're a very stable business and that rarely ever changes meaningfully. An executive could say "we need to reduce CAC immediately!" and the easy answer would be to respond "how low do you want to go?" Most paid savvy folks who follow me will know that you can just reduce the spend roughly proportionate to the desired CAC reduction and presto bingo you've got the number you want. "I want a $40 CAC!" reduce your spend to $40k that month. "I want a $30 CAC!" reduce to $30k. And so on. You might be wondering "if your CAC directly drops equally to your spend reduction, isn't your spend not very incremental?" And the answer is "sort of... in the short term." That month that you cut budgets might look great from an efficiency perspective and your exec team will be thrilled with such great improvements. However, over the next few days or weeks you'll start to see your total VOLUME of new customers drop. And if you keep your newly reduced spend as the new normal, your CAC will probably rise back up again to what it was before ($50 instead of say the targeted reduction to $30), and your total volume of new customers will drop from 1k / mo down to 600/mo. This won't be felt right away in most businesses because customers rarely impulse buy within an hour of seeing an ad. Some brands and customer segments do enjoy that level of impulsivity, but, most don't despite what Facebook or whomever will tell you. So you'll see a slow and steady decline over the course of weeks or months, and people will wonder what happened. And the cycle will continue. We call this "optimizing yourself to death" at Power. Blended business metrics are a great and important way for you to manage the profit of your paid efforts, but they don't tell the story of what is actually CAUSING new customers or revenue to come into the P&L. #cac #dtc #marketing #attribution

    Wanna chat about wasted ad spend? Great, we can do this all day. The reality is that wasting ad dollars is far too common, and it boils down to a few reasons: 1️⃣ Not knowing how much to spend  2️⃣ Showing your ads to the wrong audience  3️⃣ Lack of measurement If the shoe fits, find out how you can save your 💸 here: https://lnkd.in/gyRJj5V 🎤: Chief Strategy Officer, Ben Dutter #measurement #digitalmarketing #agency #ecommerc

    You'll never capture as much market share as you think you will. I see it all the time from brands and acquisition targets: "This market segment is a kajillion dollars!" "If we only get 1%, that'll be 100 billion!" "Our forecast puts us growing 1 to 2% share." "Our top 5 competitors are only 20% of market." There have been a handful of extremely dominant market companies, and almost all of them are borderline oligopolies (or like Google, a literal monopoly). The vast majority of mature market segments that have been around since before the internet (think clothing, services, food, etc) are extremely fragmented. There might be a handful of superpowers, but even they are only 5-10% of the market share. Louis Vuitton, the most valuable luxury goods brand, does maybe $14-15b in revenue per year. Just handbags alone as an industry are estimated at around $70b globally (not accounting for everything LV sells that isn't a handbag) that'd still only be ~20% market share. Are you Louis Vuitton? No. The global shoe market is something like $400b per year. Guess how much Nike does? About $51b, and they sell a heck of a lot of stuff other than shoes. Again, giving them the most aggressive version of market share would put them at something like 13%. So if two of the most extremely successful and powerful brands ever conceived can barely crack 15-20% of market share in "mature" industries, what makes you think you can get to 1%? Or worse, even 5%? Now the reality is that you probably need to shrink your definition of a "market" in this case. Rather than shoes, it is athletic shoes. Rather than athletic shoes, it is running shoes. Rather than running shoes, it is long distance running shoes for hardcore runners. Definition of a niche is an important way to hone in on differentiation, which is the key "solution" to market share growth. You have to decide on things you DON'T do, things that your product is NOT. Then you can very clearly articulate what it is, and speak to that much narrower audience. In this way you can help eliminate (or at least, mitigate) the second constraint in the Three Constraint Model -- market share. #marketing #strategy #marketshare
