Can I identify which discounts drive profitable growth?

As an e-commerce merchant, I'm struggling to understand which discount strategies actually contribute to my bottom line. I see multiple promotions running, but I can't definitively link them to meaningful revenue growth or profitability. I need a systematic approach to analyze discount performance beyond just looking at total sales, and want to identify which specific discount types, percentages, and targeting methods are truly driving incremental, profitable customer acquisition and repeat purchases.

Identifying Discounts That Drive Profitable Growth

Not all discount-driven revenue is profitable growth. The key distinction is between incremental revenue (new orders you wouldn't have gotten) and substitution revenue (orders from customers who would have purchased at full price anyway).

Profitability Indicators by Campaign

Growth Suite's Margin Protection

Growth Suite's Purchase Intent Prediction identifies dedicated buyers and excludes them from offers - protecting your highest-margin customers from unnecessary discounting. This is the core mechanism that makes Growth Suite campaigns profitable by design.

Run a 30-day cohort analysis: compare the 90-day LTV of customers acquired via Growth Suite discount offers vs. full-price customers. If discount-acquired customers show similar or higher LTV at full-price, the campaign is driving genuinely profitable growth.
