Moving established baby food revenue to DTC from marketplaces
For established brands, moving customers from marketplaces to DTC is a profit imperative. You have the brand trust, now you need the infrastructure to own the transaction. By using a managed content network to drive traffic directly to your site, you bypass marketplace middlemen. This enables you to control the customer experience and build a subscription base that is truly yours, not Amazon's.

Baby food brand, established: moving buyers from marketplaces to the own store.
The profit case for DTC migration
As an established player, you have a massive customer base on marketplaces. However, each sale comes with a high tax. Moving these customers to your own store is the best way to improve your bottom line. You already have the brand awareness; you just need to provide the right incentive. Use your site to offer subscription perks that marketplaces can't touch, like a loyalty program that rewards parents for every shipment. Your brand strength is your biggest advantage in this move.
Dominating the feed with a network
A managed content network is a set of many brand-owned Instagram pages that post the brand's existing videos many times a day from real iPhones, built and run end to end by a provider such as TIDE, so organic reach grows with the number of pages instead of headcount or ad spend. This lets you dominate the organic space without increasing your marketing team size. You are creating a continuous presence that reminds customers to skip the marketplace and go straight to your site.
Repurposing your brand assets
You have years of content, from professional campaigns to customer testimonials. Use these assets to fill your network of accounts. Since you have an established brand, this content is highly effective at building authority. It reinforces your position as a trusted choice for parents. By having dozens of pages posting your videos daily, you ensure your brand is always top of mind, which is the most reliable way to drive repeat traffic directly to your own checkout page.
Managing the migration
Share your best-performing creative with your provider. Give them clear instructions on which customer segments to target, such as recurring parents or those interested in specific product lines. They will distribute your videos across the network. Monitor the migration of your customer base and use the data from your own site to further personalize your offerings. This is how you reclaim your margins and build a defensible, independent business that is no longer beholden to marketplace fees or algorithm shifts.

It is a known factor. The provider takes care of all the account maintenance and replacement so your brand stays visible without you doing the work.
