About OritaDirect-to-consumer brands pay us, in order to market less.Well, technically, they pay us to market more effectively. And, strangely (!), that often means marketing a lot less.How? We use

a lot of math

and

a lot of machine learning

to decide which people on their subscriber lists actually want to hear from them right now.When you do this, two things happen. Brands save a ton of money. And their deliverability improves (hello inbox, goodbye spam filter!).Fewer messages sent + higher chance they will be seen = ROI goes way up.Sounds simple, right? Well, it’s not. You try getting marketers to be less market-y. It’s way easier to “play it safe” and email everyone all the time. Our math has to be that good.But you said there would be math. Yes.
