★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What clients say
"Redwood was the first agency that did not pitch us a discount calendar. They rebuilt our retention engine and we hit our LTV target a year ahead of plan."
Sarah Whitfield
Co-founder, Cascade Granola Co
"We grew from 4 to 11 million in ARR without a single sitewide sale. Maya and her team understood our brand boundaries the way our founders do."
Tom Edelstein
CEO, Wildwood Apparel
"Their lifecycle work cut our blended CAC by more than half. We finally have an owned channel that pays for our paid spend."

About Redwood Growth
Redwood Growth partners with purpose-led brands that refuse to compromise on values for performance. They build retention-first growth engines that compound year over year instead of burning to scale.
What sets them apart
Redwood Growth runs a retention-first playbook for B Corp and certified-sustainable brands where lifetime value, not first-order CAC, is the primary metric. The team builds full Klaviyo + Attentive flows tied to product use cases, not discount cycles, and treats community programs as a first-class acquisition channel rather than an afterthought. They stay deliberately small, capping retainers at 16 active clients so every account gets a senior strategist. Most clients ship without ever running a coupon-led promotion.

4.1x repeat-purchase rate for plant-based granola brand in 9 months
Plant-based foodClient: Cascade Granola Co
+4.1x repeat rate
31% subscription mix
38% owned-channel revenue
Challenge
A Portland granola brand was acquiring 3,000 new customers per month on Meta but seeing only 12% repeat-purchase within 90 days. CAC kept rising and retention was flat.
Approach
Redwood rebuilt the post-purchase journey with usage-based Klaviyo flows, a 6-week recipe series, and a "subscribe and skip" SMS opt-in. Replaced sitewide discounts with bundle offers tied to taste preference data captured at checkout.
Result
Repeat-purchase rate inside 90 days climbed from 12% to 49%. Subscription revenue went from 8% of total to 31% of total. Email + SMS now drives 38% of monthly revenue at near-zero acquisition cost.
B Corp ethical fashion brand hit $11M ARR without a single discount
Ethical fashionClient: Wildwood Apparel
$11M ARR
+175% revenue
22% referral share
Challenge
A 4-year-old ethical apparel brand was stuck at $4M ARR. Founders refused to use discount-led marketing because it undercut the brand promise of fair-wage pricing.
Approach
Built an editorial content program around supplier stories, paired with a closed-loop community on Geneva. Layered a referral program that rewarded education credit toward partner workshops instead of cash. Every paid social asset led with provenance, not price.
Result
Revenue grew from $4M to $11M ARR in 18 months without running a single sitewide discount. Community-driven referrals account for 22% of new orders.
60% lower email-driven CAC for clean skincare brand
BeautyClient: Salt + Sage Skincare
28% email/SMS revenue
-60% blended CAC
41% quiz completion
Challenge
A small clean-beauty brand was over-reliant on Meta and saw paid CAC double after the iOS 14 changes. Email list was 80k but only generated 6% of revenue.
Approach
Migrated the list to Klaviyo, segmented by skin type and routine stage, and rebuilt 14 lifecycle flows including a 21-day "results journal" sequence. Added a quiz-driven welcome flow that doubled the opt-in rate.
Result
Email + SMS share of revenue moved from 6% to 28%. Blended CAC dropped 60% as paid spend shifted to top-of-funnel only. Quiz completion rate stabilized at 41%.
