Energy drinks and supplements brand scaling paid social and data infrastructure
Primal State Performance manufactures natural energy drinks and supplements, distributed primarily through Shopify and Amazon. The tech stack reveals a marketing-led operation: heavy Google Ads/Meta/TikTok spend, Shopify for DTC, and Amazon Seller Central for wholesale. They're actively adopting TikTok and Outbrain for channel diversification, while simultaneously building data infrastructure (dbt, Lightdash, SQL models) to replace manual reporting — a common inflection point for DTC brands scaling beyond single-channel revenue.
