DTC & ecommerce marketing agencies, reviewed

Agencies evaluated against briefs from direct-to-consumer and ecommerce brands — Shopify stores, subscription products, marketplace sellers.

76 agencies we would put in front of a client, from 77 with checked evidence of work in this sector. 56 of them name a client or case study here; the rest tell us they serve it. We also name the 1 we cut, and why — that is what makes the other 76 worth reading.

Where the coverage actually is

The deepest coverage for DTC and ecommerce buyers is in conversion work and retention, not acquisition — which is the right shape for 2026, when the cost of a first purchase has risen far enough that most brands make their margin on the second one. If you are here to fix acquisition cost, the honest reading is that the two highest-leverage disciplines below are usually CRO and lifecycle, and both are cheaper than buying more traffic.

Showing the top 24 of 76 by score. This is a view across disciplines, so it is a starting point rather than a ranking — the full set for each discipline, with the rubric it was scored against, is on the discipline pages linked above.

And the ones we cut, so you can judge the rest

Named, with the reason and the sources. These are agencies — real service firms we would not put in front of a client.
