ABOUT FLUENCY

Jacob Rokeach
Founder & CEO of Fluency Firm

Before starting Fluency, I spent 15+ years operating inside consumer brands - from Hulu and NBCUniversal to Anine Bing, Joie, and Bombshell Sportswear. I wasn't advising from the outside. I was running teams, managing P&Ls, overseeing creative, and making growth calls when the data was messy and the stakes were real.

I started Fluency because I kept seeing the same gap: great brands under-served by agencies that didn't understand how DTC actually works. This report is what I wish I'd had on the brand side.
