Margin-led growth after the cheap-traffic era

Paid acquisition costs broke the old e-commerce playbook. We rebuild growth around contribution margin, retention, and the operational discipline the winners share.

The challenges

What holds E-commerce growth back

  • CAC inflation across every major ad platform
  • Discount dependence that trains customers to wait
  • Marketplace squeeze on both fees and data ownership
  • Logistics complexity in cross-border SEA expansion

The opportunities

Where the upside is hiding

  • Retention economics: the profit hiding in second orders
  • AI merchandising and segmentation lifting basket and frequency
  • SEA's fast-growing digital consumer base via Singapore
  • First-party data as a moat marketplaces cannot take
