The Brief

A direct-to-consumer innerwear brand featured on Shark Tank India entered a critical growth phase with strong product-market fit but ambitious scale targets. Designed for India’s digital-first millennials, the brand is known for creating some of the softest and most comfortable innerwear using sustainably sourced MicroModal fabric. The brief was clear but aggressive: scale monthly revenue from ₹30 lakhs to ₹1 crore within three months, while maintaining efficiency across paid channels. Our role was to engineer a performance-driven growth system that could scale fast, stay profitable, and support long-term brand momentum.

The Challenge

Scaling a DTC innerwear brand in India is complex, even with strong brand recall. For a fast-growing brand with aggressive timelines, the margin for error was minimal.

The brand came in with:

Existing paid media setups that were limiting scale

Inefficient budget distribution and audience overlap

The need to significantly increase spend without hurting ROAS

The real challenge wasn’t demand, it was building a scalable system that could handle rapid growth without performance drop-offs.

The Approach

Fixing foundations before scaling

  1. Account Restructuring & Signal Reset

  • Rebuilt Meta and paid search accounts from scratch to remove legacy inefficiencies

  • Relaunched campaigns with controlled budgets to allow clean learning

  • Improved signal quality while gradually increasing spend and ROAS

  1. Campaign Consolidation & Budget Efficiency

  • Consolidated campaign structures to reduce audience overlap

  • Reallocated budgets toward high-performing segments

  • Enabled broader reach without compromising efficiency

  1. Bid Strategy Alignment

  • Shifted Google campaigns from eCPC to tROAS bidding

  • Optimized bids in real time based on profitability goals

  • Ensured every advertising dollar aligned with revenue targets

  1. Event Matching & Performance Tracking

  • Implemented enhanced event matching across platforms

  • Improved attribution accuracy and conversion tracking

  • Enabled smarter optimization toward high-intent users

  1. Campaign Testing & Advantage+ Scaling

  • Conducted structured split tests between Advantage+ and manual campaigns

  • Maintained a balanced 50/50 budget allocation during testing

  • Scaled Advantage+ as the primary conversion campaign after delivering 87% higher ROAS

The Results

Within the first 100 days, the brand validated demand and established clear positioning in the US market. SEO efforts compounded steadily, improving organic discovery, keyword visibility, and conversion quality. Most importantly, the brand built a repeatable and scalable growth system that balanced paid performance with organic demand capture.
