5 Questions That Drive 80% of Your Growth

Every ecommerce growth team spends the majority of their time answering the same five questions. The problem? Most brands answer them with disconnected tools, siloed teams, and spreadsheets that have nothing to do with the actual marketing levers they can pull.

In this episode, Luke breaks down the five questions that account for 80% of your marketing team's work - and how the Prophit Engine answers all five inside a single system:

1. What should my forecast be, and what does each channel need to deliver?

2. What's the optimal spend allocation across channels?

3. How much creative output do I actually need?

4. What's the right full-funnel Meta strategy and daily optimization workflow?

5. Where's the gap vs. forecast, and what specific action closes it today?

For each question, Luke walks through how brands typically answer it (disconnected finance forecasts, historical budget splits, gambling on creative volume, manual ad building, weekly business reviews) - and how a unified system replaces all of that with daily clarity.
