Ecommerce: Your First-Time Offer Sucks (Here’s How to Fix It)

This episode is the start of a new series: the 5 Offers every ecommerce brand needs to scale properly.

We’re kicking off with the most important one — and the one most brands get wrong:

👉 The Recruitment Offer — the thing that gets someone to buy from you for the very first time.

If your offer is just “10% off your first order,” and you’re wondering why your ROAS is falling off a cliff… this is for you.

Inside, we break down:

  • Why the job of the recruitment offer isn’t to make profit — it’s to create momentum
  • How to structure offers that lift AOV without tanking conversion rate
  • Real examples from wine brands, supplement kits, and BOGOFs that crushed it
  • Why you should stop giving your customers too many choices
  • How to spot when your order value is the real problem (not your ads)

This episode is all about removing friction, getting the sale, and setting up a second one.
