Frequently Asked Questions
What unit economics do e-commerce investors expect?
Healthy gross margins, reasonable CAC payback, and cohorts that do not collapse after the first purchase. Repeat purchase and contribution margin matter a lot.
Is it better to be D2C or marketplace?
Both models can work. D2C gives more control; marketplaces can scale faster but require stronger network effects. Investors care more about your wedge and defensibility than the label.
How important is brand in e-commerce fundraising?
Brand matters, but investors will still look closely at economics. Loyal customers and organic traffic are the strongest signals that the brand works.
