Data-first marketing consultancy

Most DTC brands don't have a marketing problem.
They have a data problem.

We rebuild how European e-commerce brands see their numbers — and scale Google Ads against decisions you can actually defend. Founder-led. Attribution-obsessed. Contribution-margin-aware.

About ECVILIB

Performance that survives an honest look at the data.

Most growth-stage DTC brands we meet have the same shape of problem. The ad accounts look fine. The dashboards look fine. And yet payback periods slip, blended CAC drifts upward, and quarterly decisions get made on numbers nobody fully trusts.

We're not another agency. ECVILIB is a small consultancy that starts every engagement by rebuilding what your reporting actually measures — and only then touches a single Google Ads campaign. Once the signal is clean, scaling is no longer a guess.

We work with a tight portfolio of European DTC brands across electronics, beauty, and consumer finance. Engagements are senior-led, NDA-protected, and structured around contribution margin rather than vanity metrics.

Liudmyla ZARITSKA

Principal Consultant · Founder of ECVILIB LLC

11+ years building performance marketing functions for European DTC brands across electronics, beauty, and consumer finance. Previously led growth and analytics at scaling DTC retailers in DACH, Benelux, and Nordics — with a focus on attribution architecture, cohort economics, and Google Ads at scale.

"Most e-commerce teams spend more time tuning bid strategies than checking who those bids are actually being credited to. We start from the opposite end."

The Signal Method

Four steps from noise to defensible scale.

A repeatable framework we apply to every engagement. Diagnose what your data is hiding, fix attribution, then reallocate and scale with confidence.

01

Diagnose

Full audit of analytics stack, attribution, and unit economics. We surface what your dashboards are quietly getting wrong.

02

Reattribute

Rebuild GA4, server-side tracking, and cohort logic. Every conversion gets credited to the channel that actually earned it.

03

Reallocate

Restructure Google Ads, Meta, and budget split against clean LTV and contribution margin — not last-click illusions.

04

Scale

Compound the wins. Test by hypothesis, measure incrementally, and grow paid spend without breaking payback.

Marketing Research

Market sizing, competitor mapping, and channel feasibility — translated into a phased go-to-market plan, not a slide deck.

Outcome — confident decisions backed by evidence

Why ECVILIB

What clients choose us against.

Six things ECVILIB does differently from the typical performance agency. Each one shows up in how engagements are scoped, run, and reported.

01

Data integrity first

Every engagement starts with an attribution audit. If your numbers can't be trusted, no campaign optimization will hold.

02

Margin, not vanity

We optimize for contribution margin and payback — not impressions, clicks, or "ROAS theater" on last-click dashboards.

03

Founder-led

You work with Liudmyla directly on every engagement. No layered account teams, no juniors briefed by phone.

04

Boutique by design

We deliberately keep our roster small. Fewer clients, deeper engagements, real time on each business — not a sales pipeline.

05

EU + US fluency

Florida-registered, operating across US and EU time zones. Comfortable with multi-jurisdiction privacy, payments, and tax dynamics.

06

Transparent reporting

Every dashboard we build, you own. Every assumption is documented. Nothing is locked behind agency tooling.

Engagement models

Three ways to start.

Flexible scope to match your stage. Most clients begin with an audit, then move into a retainer once we've seen the data.

Audit
4 weeks
Fixed-scope, fixed-fee.
  • Attribution & analytics audit
  • Google Ads account review
  • Cohort & LTV health check
  • Prioritized action plan
Best for — brands who suspect their dashboards aren't telling the truth.
Fractional CMO
6+ months
Senior leadership, embedded.
  • Full marketing function ownership
  • Team hiring & mentoring
  • Board-level reporting
  • Cross-functional decision support
Best for — brands scaling past €5M without an in-house CMO yet.
FAQ

Common questions, direct answers.

European DTC and e-commerce brands, typically €1–50M in annual revenue, with at least €30K/month in paid media spend. Most are in electronics, beauty, consumer finance, or adjacent categories with strong DTC economics.
Retainers run 3–12 months on average. Audits are 4 weeks, fixed scope. Fractional CMO engagements start at 6 months and often extend into longer-term partnerships.
No, and we're skeptical of anyone who does. We guarantee a clear methodology, transparent reporting, and weekly accountability. Outcomes depend on your category dynamics, product, and stage — and we'll tell you in week one if we don't think the engagement will work.
Yes. Every engagement is founder-led. We deliberately keep the roster small enough that Liudmyla owns the strategic work on every account.
Google Ads first — that's where the wedge is. Meta and TikTok when the channel fits the brand. Programmatic and CTV selectively, when scale and measurement support it.
Yes — a 4-week fixed-scope attribution and Google Ads audit. Many engagements start here. You're under no obligation to continue afterward; we deliver the report and you decide.
Strict NDA on every engagement. We work inside your stack rather than parallel to it. No third-party data sharing, no resale, no portfolio name-dropping without explicit written consent.
Selectively. We've worked with subscription, marketplace, and consumer fintech businesses where the unit economics resemble DTC. Pure B2B SaaS is generally outside our wedge.
ECVILIB LLC is registered in Florida, USA. Operations run between Florida and the EU, so we cover US and European working hours comfortably for clients in either region.
Begin with a 30-minute intro call to discuss your stage, stack, and goals. If we're a fit, we follow with a scoped proposal — either a fixed audit or a retainer. No long sales cycle.
