The algorithm needs about 30-50 conversions to optimize bidding.

For Tamenglong D2C, we typically start with a mix: Performance Max for product catalog sales, Search for branded and product-specific keywords, and Shopping for visual product listing. If you have a local pickup option, Local Inventory Ads are effective. A bamboo brand saw 40% of conversions from Performance Max, 35% from Shopping, and 25% from Search. We adjust the mix based on which channels drive the highest repeat purchase rate.

We switch to data-driven attribution within Google Ads and use Google Analytics 4 with modeled data.

However, delivery logistics from Tamenglong can be costlier, so we recommend targeting a 30 km radius and using local pickup options to keep shipping costs down.

For D2C brands, look beyond just ROAS. Focus on: Cost Per First Purchase (CPFP), Repeat Purchase Rate (RPR) from ad-attributed customers, and Contribution Margin After Ads (CMAA). A healthy D2C campaign in Tamenglong has CPFP under ₹1,000, RPR above 20% within 90 days, and CMAA positive. We provide dashboards tracking these monthly.

Using Customer Match, we upload email lists from WhatsApp orders to target lookalikes. One brand saw 38% of retargeting clicks convert.
