From $4k to $100k/mo:How We Helped This Golf Brand Drive DTC Growth

Client Overview
Caddysplash is a golf accessory brand known for its premium water brush, built to keep golf clubs clean and optimized for performance. While they were generating decent sales on Amazon, they had no direct-to-consumer foundationā€”and knockoff competitors were beginning to eat into their market share.
Challenge
Caddysplash came to us at a crossroads. Cheap, low-quality alternatives were flooding Amazon and undercutting their price point. Their entire business was tied to a single channel, and they had never run effective ads or built a DTC funnel. Hereā€™s what they were facing:
  • No ad strategy or paid media experience
  • Over-reliance on Amazon with no owned audience
  • Low AOV and limited bundling strategy
  • No email/SMS system in place for retention or upsells
They needed to shift from a commodity product to a premium brandā€”and fast.
Process

1. Creative That Converts
  • Produced a high-performing library of video and UGC-style ads
  • Focused messaging around product quality, durability, and clean gear = better play
  • Positioned the brand as the premium choice to differentiate from knockoffs

2. Landing Page That Closes
  • Fully redesigned landing and product pages using CRO best practices
  • Highlighted features, benefits, and social proof to build trust
  • Used A/B testing to fine-tune messaging and layout for maximum conversions

3. Targeting + Offers That Scale
  • Built out full-funnel ad campaigns across cold and warm audiences
  • Introduced bundles and value-stacking offers to boost AOV
  • Paired urgency and exclusivity with key promotional windows

4. Retention That Pays Off
  • Implemented email and SMS flows: welcome series, abandoned cart recovery, post-purchase upsells
  • Captured and converted lost revenue
  • Encouraged repeat purchases through thoughtful follow-up and product education

Results

  • Total Revenue (5 Months): $286,828.38
  • Orders Fulfilled: 7,111
  • Conversion Rate: 4.76% (ā†‘ 203%)
  • Month 5 Revenue: $103,659.40
