7 tips for building a successful D2C brand in 2023

7 tips for building a successful D2C brand in 2023

Direct to consumer, or D2C, sales is a market thatโ€™s been growing in importance in the last few years. You could think of it as a simpler form of ecommerce, where companies design, produce, market, and sell their products or services directly to the consumer or end user, without any intermediaries.ย 
The D2C market is alreadyย worth $128 billion in the US alone, and itโ€™s forecast to reach almost $213 billion by 2024. Other markets are predicting even faster growth, such as India where D2C is forecast to grow at aย CAGR of around 40%ย from $12 billion in 2022 to $60 billion by 2026. Itโ€™s an increasingly popular way for ecommerce companies to diversify their sales channels for greater resilience. Indeed, as seen in our 2022 UK eCommerce report,ย 46% of UK ecommerce SMBs consider D2C salesย to be the biggest opportunity for their business in the next 12 months.
However, building a successful D2C company involves careful work. D2C brands own their relationship with their audience and donโ€™t rely on middlemen, so they have to invest strategically into building their brand recognition and nurturing connections with existing and potential customers.ย 
To help you make the most of this trend, weโ€™ve gathered 7 tips for building your D2C brand, to help you succeed in boosting profits in 2023. [โ€ฆ]
