Overview
Workhorse Innovation provides performance marketing services for direct-to-consumer brands. It manages paid media across Meta, Google, YouTube, and TikTok using rapid testing to identify winning ads, scale them, and reduce waste, and it also offers creative production from UGC to high-end branded content, plus retention marketing via Klaviyo and SMS to boost lifetime value. The company acts as a growth partner, building scalable ad funnels and optimizing paid social creative to drive long-term growth and higher repurchase rates for high-LTV products. Founders who have built and sold DTC brands bring an operator’s perspective that emphasizes profitable, sustainable scaling over flashy or risky spend.
