+27%
YoY CAC inflation across Wellness paid channels, 2025
Wellness paid acquisition has gotten harder for every channel — supplement subscriptions saturated, studio trial-class costs creeping, longevity clinics fighting on the same long-tail keywords. The accounts that win in this market rebuild their LTV model before they rebuild their funnel. Anything less is optimizing against the first-purchase metric.

Industry challenges

Four problems wellness brands hit. None of them fix themselves.

Wellness paid acquisition has its own physics — trial-to-habit drop-off, creator attribution gaps, LTV that hides behind first-purchase math. Here's how we approach the four that surface on nearly every audit.

01 · LTV

First-purchase economics break wellness.

Most accounts measure CAC on first purchase, then miss that wellness churns hard in month 2–3. Without a retention model, paid scales to break-even and stalls. ROAS lies; cohort revenue tells the truth.

How we approach:Cohort-based reporting at month-3 and month-6 checkpoints, retention-aware bidding, LTV-to-CAC ratios computed weekly — not blended quarterly.
02 · Creator

Influencer spend without attribution.

Wellness brands run 30–50% of growth through creators, but most can't tell which creator drove what revenue. Spend stacks without a feedback loop. The top creators get under-rewarded; the mediocre get over-funded.

How we approach: UTM-stitched creator codes, post-purchase survey attribution, creator-level ROAS computed weekly, paid amplification of top-performing creator content.
03 · Saturation

Same-ICP saturation.

Yoga studios all target "yoga lovers 25–40 in [city]." IV clinics all bid on "vitamin drip near me." When everyone uses the same audience, CPMs climb and CVR drops. The funnel breaks at the top.

How we approach: Adjacent-audience expansion, lookalike modelling from high-LTV cohorts, problem-aware creative testing, channel-mix rebalancing toward under-served surfaces.
04 · Habit

Trial-to-habit drop-off.

A first class, a first capsule, a first drip — none of them are the business. Most wellness funnels lose 60–70% between first purchase and second. The drop is invisible if you only track CAC, not retention.

How we approach: Habit-trigger emails, 14-day onboarding sequences, sub-15-minute reply SLAs on first-purchase questions, second-session/second-purchase as the conversion event.

FAQ

Questions wellness brands ask us first.

UTM-stitched creator codes, post-purchase survey attribution, creator-level ROAS computed weekly. We stop treating "creator spend" as a single line item and start treating each creator as a measurable channel. Top performers get amplified with paid; under-performers get rotated out.

Minimum 6 months. LTV models take three months of cohort data to be reliable — faster engagements never get past the first-purchase ROAS lens, which is exactly the lens we're trying to break the account out of.

Cohort-based: every paid acquisition gets bucketed by week, then revenue is tracked at month-3 and month-6 checkpoints. The metric stops being "ROAS this month" and becomes "LTV-to-CAC ratio by cohort, by channel, by creator." That's the number paid optimizes against.
