What I need help with

My background as an entrepreneur

My current challenges

I have a couple DTC brands that I have struggled to get headway in sales for over a year after a close to 1MM 2020. Most advertising ends up with negative ROI. I need to nail my customer values.

Actions I’ve taken so far

Spent several thousands in FB ads, tried organic TikTok content, Pinterest ads, email campaigns and some influencer campaigns. Hired expert marketing agencies.

My future goals

1MM+ near term revenue with increasing market share. Eventually, multiple businesses running at a 5MM annual level.

My motivations to work with a mentor

I'm not the most experienced or smartest person in the room. I need help identifying the most focused ways forward.

About my venture
