How do we transition from B2B to D2C—using eCommerce as the main channel?
A Japanese furniture manufacturer with strong wholesale distribution needed to build a consumer brand and eCommerce revenue stream. The challenge: no first‑party seed data and no past D2C benchmarks.
Build awareness, then prove performance by stacking KPIs through the funnel.
Use Facebook/Instagram and Google to drive high-intent traffic, tag the site thoroughly, and measure performance at each funnel stage. Each stage KPI creates signal—even before purchase volume is meaningful.
A KPI Stack That Made Optimization Possible Without Initial Sales Data
Stacked KPIs are a practical way to grow eCommerce when you have no seed data: start by optimizing to reliable proxies (users and engaged sessions), then graduate to higher-intent actions (add‑to‑cart, checkout), and finally optimize to transactions once purchase volume is stable.
