Highlights & Summary

Email Marketing Summary: In the supplements industry, Inno Supps leads in email marketing with a high number of emails sent and good email scoring. Onnit follows closely, despite its lower email scoring, with substantial email activity. O Positiv and The Nue Co also maintain strong email marketing performance. However, brands like Care/Of, Dose, Amp Human / Momentous, and beam fall short in both email volume and scoring, and need to improve their email marketing strategies.

Email Deliverability Summary: Standard Dose lacks email data for analysis. Care/Of demonstrates good email deliverability, despite a lower spam score, but needs to optimize email size. O Positiv excels in email deliverability with a strong spam score and optimized email size. On the other hand, Dose, Heights, and beam have work to do in terms of email size optimization and spam scores for improved email delivery.

Ads Performance Summary: Cuure takes the lead in advertising performance with a high number of new ads detected and an impressive range of unique ad copies. Inno Supps closely follows with robust advertising performance. Onnit and Ritual also perform well in this category. Brands such as Standard Dose, Care/Of, and Happy Tuesdays need to enhance their advertising strategies.

Social Ads Diversity Summary: Ritual leads in social ad diversity with a high proportion of video assets. Cuure, Inno Supps, and Onnit also demonstrate strong diversity in their social ads. Brands like Standard Dose, Care/Of, O Positiv, Dose, and Heights need to diversify their social ad assets, particularly with video content. Happy Tuesdays and Amp Human / Momentous lag behind in this aspect.
