AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Brands Group, Inc. ("DBGI") (NASDAQ: DBGI), a curated collection of luxury lifestyle, digital-first brands, today announces it launched DSTLD on Amazon Prime, while it also launched its affiliate program across all its brands.
DSTLD has officially moved past the "on-boarding" stage today with Amazon Prime, which means its product will be for sale on Amazon Prime. "We believe the extra time and work it took to qualify for Amazon Prime will result in much higher short and long-term value versus just selling as a third party on Amazon's site," said Laura Dowling, Chief Marketing Officer of Digital Brands Group.
Furthermore, in the next three days, DSTLD's Brand Store will launch on Amazon, which will include DSTLD's own videos and branded content. According to statista.com and eMarketer, 63 percent of online shoppers go to Amazon to start searching for products, which we believe will increase brand awareness and customer acquisition.
In addition to this, DBGI is launching an affiliate program across all its brands. This is the first time most of its brands have launched an affiliate program. The benefit of an affiliate program is the significant reach a brand creates working with major online publications and their millions of readers, so the brand awareness and customer reach is exponential to traditional digital marketing programs. Historically, DSLTD has generated meaningful revenue and customer acquisition growth through its affiliate programs.
Once again, Hil Davis, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Brands Group, stated that "we are excited to finally move into our growth phase, and believe these programs will show the power of our platform and the growth opportunity for Q4 of 2021 and 2022."
Finally, as we discussed in our S-1, we expect to continue to grow through acquisitions and expect to continue to acquire companies this year, most of which will require GAAP PCAOB audits. These audits take time, which results in a delayed acquisition timeframe weighted toward the final months of 2021.

About Digital Brands Group
We offer a wide variety of apparel through numerous brands on a both direct-to-consumer and wholesale basis. We have created a business model derived from our founding as a digitally native-first vertical brand. Digital native first brands are brands founded as e-commerce driven businesses, where online sales constitute a meaningful percentage of net sales, although they often subsequently also expand into wholesale or direct retail channels., Unlike typical e-commerce brands, as a digitally native vertical brand we control our own distribution, sourcing products directly from our third-party manufacturers and selling directly to the end consumer. We focus on owning the customer's "closet share" by leveraging their data and purchase history to create personalized targeted content and looks for that specific customer cohort. We have strategically expanded into an omnichannel brand offering these styles and content not only on-line but at selected wholesale and retail storefronts. We believe this approach allows us opportunities to successfully drive Lifetime Value ("LTV") while increasing new customer growth.
