We had an amazing time recharging, hiking, and getting soaked by the falls 🌊

Alright, now back to business, let’s jump into this week’s newsletter 👇

How One Quick Fix Added $52,000/Year in Revenue

This brand will likely generate an extra $52,000/year...from a single quick fix we found in their email account.

A few weeks ago, my team at BSR Digital ran a free Journey Overlay Analysis for a great brand.

What’s that?

We basically map out your customer journey and overlay your marketing (ads, emails, website) to spot misalignments.

Turns out, there were a few.

They implemented one of our recommendations…

And last week, I got this message from the founder: 

That’s what I call finding money in your pockets.
❌ No extra ad spend
❌ No funnel rebuilds
❌ No shiny AI tools

Just a strategic audit of what’s already in place… and how it aligns (or doesn’t) with how your customers behave. 

Now they’re doing $1,000/week from a flow that was doing zero before.

That’s $52,000+/year, from ONE fix.

If you’re already doing 7 or 8 figures and want to uncover easy wins like this...

3 Fixes to Drive More Revenue

Most brands focus heavily on acquisition.

But then...they vanish after the first purchase.

What happens next determines your AOV, LTV, and repeat revenue.

Here are 3 quick wins we’ve used to unlock serious growth, without adding ad spend or launching new products.

The Post-Purchase Gap That’s Killing Repeat Sales:

If your Welcome or Post-Purchase flow ends by Day 14...
But your average repurchase time is 52 days...
You’re invisible when it matters most.

Here’s the fix:
→ Check the actual time between orders (Sidekick/Lifetimely)
→ Adjust the timing of your emails to match buying behavior 

It’s not about sending more emails.
It’s about showing up when it counts. 

Stop Promoting Random Products:

Let’s say customers typically buy Product A…
Then 30% of them go on to buy Product B…
But your emails are pushing Products C, D, and E.

That’s not strategy. That’s guesswork.

To fix that:
→ Pull up the “Product Journey” report in Lifetimely (or similar tool)
→ Look at the most common next-purchase patterns
→ Ask yourself: are we guiding them to that next step, or leaving it to chance?

Most brands are guessing. Winners reverse-engineer the path to more revenue. 

Your Customers Are Telling You What They Want...Are You Listening?

Here’s one that keeps printing money for our clients:
→ Run post-purchase surveys
→ Talk to customers (calls, reviews, social comments)
→ Look beyond attribution, mine the insights 

We've recently found that 72% of a brand’s customers were gift-givers.
And half of those gifts were for close family.
But the brand’s emails and ads were speaking to the end user. 🤦 

You can imagine what will happen after they fix their marketing. 

I hope these quick fixes help. 

If you want help spotting hidden opportunities for your brand, book a quick call with me. No hard pitches, just clarity to keep growing.
