Direct-to-Consumer

A DTC brand, short for Direct-to-Consumer brand, is a type of retail company that sells products directly to customers without relying on traditional stores or intermediaries. This business model allows DTC brands to have a closer relationship with their customer base, offering personalized services and experiences. They typically leverage online platforms such as e-commerce websites and social media to market and sell their products, which can range from apparel and accessories to home goods and beauty products. By cutting out the middleman, DTC brands often provide higher quality goods at lower prices and have more control over their brand image, customer data, and overall sales process. Examples of successful DTC brands include Warby Parker in eyewear, Casper in mattresses, and Dollar Shave Club in grooming products.
