Most ecommerce founders think the only way to grow is to get more traffic — but often, the fastest way to increase sales is by making more from the traffic you already have. In this episode, I share a proven “second sale” strategy you can use to increase your conversion rate, average order value (AOV), and customer lifetime value (CLV) without spending a single extra dollar on ads. This is the exact approach Amazon uses to generate billions in extra revenue — and it works just as well for smaller brands. Here’s what you’ll take away: • How to identify if you have a conversion problem vs. a traffic problem • The post-purchase upsell strategy that can boost your revenue by 10–50% • Tools and tactics to increase AOV and CLV with zero additional ad spend If you’re looking to grow your store without increasing your traffic budget, this episode will give you a simple, repeatable strategy to unlock more revenue from the customers you already have. This is a brand new solo series I’m testing, and I’d love your feedback. Email me directly at nathan@foundr.com — I read every reply. Hope you enjoy it.
