Risk Management

Risk Matrix

📉 Ad Costs Rise (Medium Risk)
CPL modeled with 20% buffer above current benchmarks. Downside scenario (−40% revenue) still preserves $181K capital by Year 3.
📦 Amazon Policy Change (Low Risk)
Revenue diversification across 6 channels means Amazon represents max 24% of Year 1 revenue. No single-channel dependency.
🏭 Supply Chain (Medium Risk)
3 qualified production suppliers. $78K inventory buffer in CapEx. Lead times: 5–12 days domestic, 14–21 days import.
🏆 Competition (Medium Risk)
Custom production barrier + repeat B2B clients (avg order $1,200). LTV:CAC ratio of 113× on Amazon Custom creates defensible moat.
