Your brand is losing 5-15% revenue... here’s why

Most brands don’t realize it... until it costs them

Hey guys, we have something special for you today.

An email from one of our exclusive agency partners, Oliver and he's going to break down the copycat crisis happening in eCom right now.

You know the one I'm talking about. Your product does well, then… In a matter of days, you see competitors flood the market. Obvious rip-offs of your brand.

Oliver's going to go into his experience into this and how he deals with it now post-scaling Tabs to 8-figures.

Hey there, it’s Oliver.

You might know me as the "Willy Wonka of sex," creator of those viral sex-chocolates that took over the internet. After organically growing my chocolate empire to $11M ARR, I learned one brutal lesson: 

When your brand hits it big, copycats aren't far behind.

Been building since I was 14. Fidget spinners, viral chocolate. Across every brand I've touched, I learned this: While you pour millions into building your brand... leeches are out there siphoning your revenue.

Someone is probably bidding on YOUR brand name right now.

When counterfeiters hit Tabs, it wasn't just annoying. It was expensive:

  • Chinese factories flooded Amazon with knockoffs.

  • Scammers cloning our site over night.

  • They bid on our exact keywords

  • When someone Googled “Tabs Chocolate,” the fake site showed up first

The worst part? Customers blamed Tabs, not the scammers.

Angry reviews, refund requests, frustrated emails… I was the one on the hook. 

Since then, I've learned that:

Brands lose 5% to 15% of their monthly revenue to bad actors. 

Some brands? Over a million dollars a month. Just… gone.

The truth is now:

  • You’re paying more on ads

  • You’re struggling to show up first on search

  • Copycats are cloning your ads, images, and site

It's everywhere. Amazon, TikTok Shop, Walmart, Temu, fake Meta ads, shady Shopify clones.

Case in point: Comfort Clothing, $600M brand, we eliminated 340+ infringers in under a week.

Smaller brands are hit just as hard– losing $20-30K/month, before they can ever take off. 

Here's what it does:

  • Auto-scans the internet daily with 37+ scripts across Amazon, Google, Meta, TikTok, Etsy, Temu, Reddit, and shady sites in Russia & China.

  • Gets your approval first (prevents friendly fire on suppliers or creators)

  • Executes real enforcement powered by an expert team of IP analysts—DMCA takedowns, registrar pressure, payment locks, Google delists.

  • Keeps you updated in Slack with every single takedown PLUS direct access to me, our CTO, COO, and our lead agent with 6 years of experience.

This isn’t just a software. It’s a full team that works around the clock. 

100,000+ takedowns executed. And we bill only when we deliver results, unlike VAs who manually search or lawyers who charge massive retainers...

If you want to see how to protect your brand,
