It also loosely confirms that Stitch Fix was leveraging a non-traditional channel for its early hyper growth and must now cultivate more traditional, sustainable marketing facilities. That change in efficiency implies that they are facing headwinds in paid marketing for their first time ever. Marketing costs nearly tripled in 2017, yet the company grew only 34%, meaning that each dollar became materially less efficient.

Stitch FixвЂ™s numbers вЂ“ especially for FY 2016 (and presumably prior) вЂ“ are so far outside the normal distribution, that they look more like the growth of a viral social app than a commerce company. Stitch Fix may be the most cash efficient e-commerce marketing machine since the start of the modern Facebook marketing era. But there remain some fantastic insights which weвЂ™ll unpack below:

This left a hole around verticals that demanded expert guidance through the purchasing funnel - a funnel which had often gotten harder to serve on mobile devices. And for one simple reason as Amazon devoured an increasing amount of the online purchasing economy, their margin structure forced them to underinvest in human service. This Kayleigh Delaney Knit Cropped Jumpsuit was so cute and comfortable.But of all those e-commerce segments, one stood head and shoulders above the rest: assisted commerce.
