Fixed-fee diagnostic. No commitment required beyond the session.
Evaluates product price point and margin adequacy for D2C unit economics, website and payment gateway readiness, digital marketing capability and CAC estimation, retention and repeat purchase potential, and logistics and returns management.
D2C unit economics fail when CAC exceeds LTV — which happens when the product price is too low, the repeat purchase rate is low, or digital marketing CAC is too high for the margin. This assessment prevents the most common D2C failure mode.
Scored across 6 critical dimensions.
Price point and margin — sufficient gross margin to absorb D2C-specific costs
Website and UX — Shopify/WooCommerce setup, mobile optimisation, trust signals
Payment gateway — Razorpay/PayU/Cashfree integration, COD management
Digital marketing — Meta and Google ad capability, content readiness
Retention mechanics — email/WhatsApp, loyalty, repeat purchase triggers
Logistics and returns — last-mile partner, return rate management, cash flow
Three outcome ranges — each with a clear next action.
75–100
D2C ready
Your product and systems are D2C-viable. Launch with a focused test budget to validate CAC before scaling.
50–74
Partially ready
Product and margin may be viable but digital marketing or logistics gaps exist. Specific fixes identified.
0–49
D2C viability unclear
Unit economics or operational readiness gaps suggest D2C may not be the right channel yet. Marketplace-first approach recommended.
Diagnosis first. Then a scoped advisory plan.
