Selling, Strategy and Marketing:

Why should a manufacturer build a direct-to-consumer channel?

By selling directly to consumers, manufacturers can earn 1.5x - 2x in gross profits per unit domestically and 3x - 5x per unit internationally as compared to B2B channels. Additionally, the volumes achievable in the D2C channel are manifold higher than the B2B channel.

How much does the brand/manufacturer need to spend on marketing?

The marketing spend can be broadly classified into two segments: Spends on e-commerce platforms on search ads and display ads (SEM) - This is a direct advertisement for high-intent shoppers and is controlled precisely by our algorithms to adhere to a pre-approved Return On Investment (ROI = Total Sales/Total Ad Spend) for each rupee spent on ads. Spends on Social Media Marketing (SMM) - These are often advertisements used to build brand awareness for the target audience. Spends on these channels are dependent on the budgets allocated for long-term growth by the manufacturer. Typically, in the steady state, the most successful brands spend between 5% to 10% of their topline on marketing via these channels.

How long does it take for sales to pick up to considerable volumes?

For a new brand launch, it typically takes between 3 to 6 months to achieve significant sales volumes. The timeline can vary based on the product category and customer reviews received. Throughout this period, Jodaro collaborates closely with brands and manufacturers to incorporate feedback and offer strategic insights to maximize sales.
