The Background

A growing D2C brand with a ROAS problem nobody could see

NutraFast is a Dubai-based D2C nutrition brand selling direct through Shopify and driving traffic primarily through Meta. Monthly ad spend: 1.2 crore. The marketing team was reporting a ROAS of 3.8× — comfortably above target.

The numbers looked healthy. Revenue was growing. But margin was compressing quarter over quarter, and nobody could explain why.

What We Found

Three data gaps hiding 18 lakh per month

1. Attribution gap — 38%

Meta's pixel lost approximately 30% of conversion signals after iOS 14.5. The reported 3.8× ROAS included conversions that never happened. Verified ROAS: 2.1×.

2. SKU profitability blindspot

The top-selling SKU had a 6% net margin after returns and fulfilment — well below the blended average.

3. Checkout funnel leak

Instagram Stories mobile had a 78% cart abandonment rate — accounting for 4.2 lakh per month in lost revenue.

We thought our Meta was working. MornningStar.ai showed us exactly where it wasn't — and the fix took one afternoon.
