🔥 The Multi-Channel Reach Gap
Everyone loves talking about acquisition volume.
“How many new customers did we get?”
“How fast are we scaling?”
“How big was this month compared to last month?”
But there’s a quieter metric, the metric almost no brand tracks, that decides whether your revenue becomes profit or becomes a slow-motion collapse:
What percent of your customers can you actually reach?
Not how many you think you can reach. Not how many are subscribed to your emails. Not how many once opened a campaign. How many can you reach right now across every channel that isn’t owned by an algorithm?
When one mid-eight-figure skincare brand ran this number during their hypergrowth spike, the truth slapped them:
13,000 customers were completely unreachable.
Email dead. No SMS opt-in. No push. No DM channel. No retargeting pool coverage. That wasn’t just a hole in their system; it was a $600K leak in a 90-day LTV.
How brands accidentally build “ghost audiences”
Every time you scale fast, you create more ghosts. People who buy once and then disappear into the void because your only communication path was email, and email has been dying in slow motion for years.
Multi-channel reach isn’t a retention booster. It’s retention insurance. Because here’s the truth most teams ignore:
Revenue grows linearly. Reach decays exponentially.
Every platform loses deliverability, attention, or visibility over time and if you don’t build alternate lanes, you wake up one day with an acquisition engine roaring and a retention engine bleeding out.
What the Multi-Channel Reach Gap really does to your business
1. It destroys 90-day LTV: When people buy once and can’t be reached again, your retention dips below the benchmarks that actually matter. 14 percent instead of 25–30 percent… and your team has no idea why.
2. It freezes subscription penetration: If no one receives your post-purchase education, your subscription funnel becomes an accidental museum piece, intact, but dead.
3. It wrecks attribution: Meta claims credit. Email claims credit. Recharge claims credit. None of them knows the truth because your reach map is broken.
4. It sabotages creative testing: You’re running tests on audiences you can’t even contact. No retargeting loops. No re-intro paths. No content reinforcement.
Your tests fail not because the creative was bad, but because the audience was unreachable.
This is where Lindy becomes operational leverage. Instead of guessing where the reach gaps are, operators can create Lindy agents that scan channel segments, check who’s reachable where, flag drop-offs, and summarize the gaps that need immediate attention.
No coding. No complexity. Just AI employees doing the grunt work that would normally take an analyst hours. You can get started for free and claim your $20 in bonus credits here.
The cold truth
Scaling acquisition without building multi-channel reach isn’t growth, it’s delayed churn. You don’t lose customers because they didn’t like your product. You lose them because they never hear from you again.
Fix reach, and your LTV jumps. Ignore it, and your biggest growth months quietly become your biggest losses.

📸 Snapchat Creators Choose Real Connection
Snapchat and Ipsos released new research showing creators feel most comfortable sharing daily life on Snapchat and view it as a personal space. The study highlights how creators build closeness through spontaneous content and one-to-one interactions.
The Breakdown:
1. Creators feel most natural on Snapchat - Creators are 1.3x more likely to share unfiltered daily moments on Snapchat, which they describe as a comfortable family-like space built for spontaneous posting and many record in a single take without planning.
2. Engagement is driven by closeness, not reach - Followers discuss and share content at 33% and keep interactions positive at 31%, while nearly 30% say they feel part of a creator’s inner circle, which strengthens loyalty.
3. Creators choose brands through quality alignment and access - Quality leads at 45%, with value alignment at 44%, and creators are contacted through platforms at 54%, DMs at 45%, and email at 44%, which shapes how partnerships form.
4. Core tools and challenges define creator workflows - Livestreaming creative tools and analytics used by 39, 37, and 36% guide how creators post, while low reach, weaker engagement, and limited mobile tools remain their top challenges.
Creators build influence where posting feels natural and community-driven, which shapes how they collaborate and show up across platforms. Brands that offer aligned values and long-term support earn stronger relationships. Platform features that reduce friction will shape where creators invest their time.
