Gather's CoAudiences helps lifestyle brands reduce Customer Acquisition Costs, by unlocking partner channels and extending audience reach to consumers who have shown purchase intent.
Hey Product Hunt, we're delighted to launch CoAudiences today!
It's been tough for many DTC & ecommerce brands recently. Marketing and acquisition costs have risen significantly over the past few years. It has gotten harder to keep a good ROI.
When a customer demonstrates purchase intent with a brand, they're a great fit for a complementary partner brand. Complementary brands are brands who often collaborate or co-market, since they share similar types of audiences. For example, this could be protein bar brand and a gym brand.
However, we noticed working with many Lifestyle brands over the years that collaborations are tedious to implement and are too time consuming. Things like generating discount codes in bulk for a partner brand's audience, tracking results really take the fun out of the process.
Marketing collaborations offer brands a very low cost acquisition channel. But it's the admin side of things that gets in the way of the ROI. That's where we come in.
We've built a platform that makes things like coupon code sharing, attribution and results tracking a breeze, putting the fun back into collabs.
If this is an interesting proposition, we'd love to invite you to learn more and share with ecommerce folks who may be interested to join the CoAudiences directory.
@elbahnasy Epic work with CoAudiences Iz and great to see this launched! Definitely a need for eCommerce marketers and founders. This is a key growth lever for brands to bring down overall CACs and drive new distribution. Great work to you and the team! 👏
@elbahnasy nice work, well done to yourself and the team. I can certainly see the benefit, everyone is competing for the same tiny bit of attention, so a bit of healthy collaboration is the way to go. Like it.
Partnerships can be such a massive game changer for efficiently acquiring new customers, but it can be a pain to scale and manage relationships on both the technical and people front.
@dean_mcpherson Thanks Dean. Absolutely, discount code generation, sharing and tracking is too much to set up for just one campaign. Reporting is also another aspect that the lack thereof makes it difficult to understand performance.
This is interesting. How does CoAudiences evaluate the quality of audience reach to guarantee that brands are connecting with consumers who are genuinely interested?
I love the versatility of this product! Here are some reasons why Gather CoAudiences stands out:
Gather CoAudiences enables brands to reward their customers in innovative ways, eliminating the need to discount their own products.
It facilitates advertising to a highly targeted and engaged audience, maximising impact.
Gather CoAudiences reduces administrative burdens with easy tracking, reward automation, and attribution.
Please reach out or share with a friend if you are interested in joining a directory of brands working together to reduce customer acquisition costs while growing revenues.
@bizrepublic Thanks Omar! Yes we found the main friction point that gets in the way of scaling out partnerships is all the manual setup involved. This is where the automation comes in. The quicker you can implement a co-marketing campaign the more of them you can, and really bring CAC down.
The concept is fantastic but does CoAudiences focus on specific industries within the lifestyle sector or is it adaptable enough to cater to various niches like fitness, fashion or wellness brands?
I have personally liked the way of representing the product and its process (How it works) in website, though i have always active on this platform for majorly finding best marketing tools, so all the best for the future growth and awareness for the launch.
I’m always asked about “growth hacks” and my answer is frequently just do the basics really well. I think CoAudiences changes that advice for ecommerce brands.

@dansiepen Thank you Dan! Yes CAC is quite high these days.
So far we've noticed that conversion rates for when one brand refers customers to another complementary brand tends to be quite high!

@jimmyfitz Thanks James! Indeed, conversion rates from many of these collabs tend to be comparatively high.
CoAudiences is a great option but Does the platform offer custom solutions for those seeking hyper-targeted partnerships?

That's impressive but does CoAudiences also offer tools to enhance customer retention after acquiring new consumers?
What an impressive launch. How does CoAudiences ensure data privacy and compliance when identifying consumers with purchase intent?
