How AOV actually behaves in healthcare clinics & hospitals
AOV is more powerful than CAC reduction in many D2C scenarios. A 20% AOV increase improves CAC payback and LTV proportionally, with no media-cost change. The classic levers: bundles (3-product instead of 1), free-shipping threshold above natural AOV, post-add-to-cart cross-sell, subscription discount nudging single → recurring. Indian D2C especially benefits because COD and ad CPM headwinds make CAC reduction hard; AOV growth bypasses both.
