About the Client
The client is a fast-growing DTC wellness and personal care brand with an established eCommerce operation across wellness, beauty, lifestyle, and personal care. The business had strong paid and organic acquisition but wanted a scalable, performance-based affiliate channel.
The Key Challenge
