Agency leads who run monthly business reviews for DTC brands
If you own the retainer narrative and the client still asks “why is cash flat when ads look fine?”, you are the buyer for this workflow — not a pure creative shop that never touches Stripe.
Do this week: open Stripe (or your client’s authorized connection), inventory the bullets above, and rank by dollars — not by which ticket yelled loudest.
One number: monthly $ at risk found. One list: top findings. One ask: approve fixes or keep monitoring on Scan.
Retainer agencies lose renewals when the brand’s CFO finds coupon leakage first. Put billing hygiene on the QBR agenda before theme work: rank open failed-payment dollars, ghost actives, and promos still redeeming after campaign end. That agenda is different from creative performance — treat it as a separate slide with a decision, not a footnote.
