Stop leading with brand story or celebrity endorsement. Lead with the price difference: 'Half the price of [competitor], same efficacy.'

If repeat purchase rate is 25%+ and LTV 3x trial ACV, scale to full SKU range. If not, adjust formula and repeat.\nWhat that means for you: if 62% of shoppers lead with price, a physical-product brand should move the price signal to the top of every paid ad, email, and shelf placement.
