Who we are

Body Science Marketing is a direct-to-consumer marketing agency for leading dietary supplement brands. We specialize in the 50-plus consumer, the fastest-growing age demographic and one that accounts for an estimated two-thirds of all dietary supplement sales.

Today, more than 75% of avid TV viewers are over the age of 50.

Our team brings together every key discipline of supplement marketing under one roof, delivering the expertise and execution needed to drive sales at scale, from front end to back end.

Performance marketing

Wherever your customers are.

Our award-winning creative team has made the creative behind leading direct-to-consumer digital campaigns and top shows on TV. With over twenty years of marketing supplements, we know how to drive sales with creative and sales funnels that convert.

TV

DRTV, linear & connected TV

From :30 connected TV commercials to half-hour infomercials, still one of the best ways to reach older adults.

Social

Paid social

Video, statics and creator-made UGC for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, in a program you can keep putting more budget into.

Search

Paid search & shopping

Brand and non-brand search and Shopping, run separately because they do different jobs, and judged by your total sales.

CRO

Conversion rate optimization

Sales funnels and landing pages, tested and judged on revenue per visitor, because that is what your ad spend actually buys.

Email

Email marketing

Email engagement from the first order to save-the-subscription, built to grow customer lifetime value.

The sales floor

Calls answered by closers.

Most TV campaigns don’t fail on the spot. They fail on the phone. Outsourced call centers, here or offshore, lose orders to untrained agents, long holds and abandoned calls, and you pay for every one. Your calls go to our agents: dietary supplement sales specialists, highly selected, fully trained and paid six figures.
