We didn’t pay nearly enough attention to our contribution margin…
It hurt our profitability
Yes it’s still me your neighborhood CMO talking about contribution margin
It’s important for us too (peep last post, 30 sec read to brush up)
Now for how your offers can impact it 🧵
🤲Offers & pricing go hand in hand
Customers quickly and subconsciously evaluate your offer and pricing, decide its value and whether to buy it
It affects your AOV + your contribution margin - the mistake we made here was by trying to increase our AOV…not contribution margin.

But instead of just slapping on a customer review on a creative and running it
Highlight the key pieces of the review - strong words, positive phrases, guarantees, etc.

The quality of your UGC content depends on the briefs you provide to your creators
… but creating briefs can take AGES sometimes.
So how do you create briefs in an efficient, yet detailed manner where you still ensure quality of output?
This is what has been working for us👇
So, the general principle you have to bear in mind when creating briefs is that: The better your input to the creator - the better output you’ll get from them.
Therefore, putting effort into your creative briefs is definitely worth it.

Increasing your Creative Testing Velocity is one of the best levers you can pull to slash your CAC (from a paid media perspective)
… But, testing a high volume of creatives is HARD
Here are the different ways you can source & test +40 creatives per week
So, firstly - let me just clarify by saying: YES - the quality of the creatives matters too (and that’s for another thread), but if you can’t pump out large numbers of creatives, consistently - then you might have a hard time sustaining performance, as ads fatigue over time.
