Turbocharging a Fashion Brand: From 3X to 15X ROAS in 4 Months
When a leading fashion brand in the UAE approached True North Marketing, they were frustrated with their digital marketing performance. Despite having invested heavily in paid ads across Meta and Google, their ROAS was hovering below 3X—barely breaking even after factoring in all costs.
