Brillare — Ad Library & Paid Spend Findings

What was directly observed

  • Meta Pixel is live on the storefront: Pixel ID 494264364729918 (Facebook/Meta advertising + tracking).
  • Google Ads tags are live: GA4 G-QC5WEL99M8, Google Ads AW-960384517, and a Merchant Center tag MC-7GTY768R8N. Full e-commerce event tracking is configured (view_item, add_to_cart, begin_checkout, purchase).
  • Other paid/retargeting infrastructure: Omnisend (email/SMS), Klaviyo, Limechat (WhatsApp), and collection handles such as retargeting-set, prospecting-set, checkout-upsell, plus co-branded/affiliate collections (CRED, Paytm, Smytten, Google Pay, Nitro, Swop, CashKaro) — clear evidence of paid acquisition + partner/affiliate marketing.

Meta Ads Library (facebook.com/ads/library)

Status: Not separately captured in this engagement. The Meta Ad Library is publicly accessible, but live enumeration of active creatives/counts was not performed here. This is a known gap — recommended as a follow-up to quantify active ad count and run duration.

Estimated paid spend (methodology + range)

Because exact ad-level data was not extracted, the following is an indicative range, low confidence derived from the observable paid infrastructure and typical Indian D2C beauty benchmarks:

ChannelEst. Monthly SpendMethodology
Meta (Instagram/Facebook)₹15–40 lakhBased on live Meta Pixel + the brand's heavy Reels/shorts content engine ("Compare Kar Ke Dekh Lo" campaign) and 197K IG following. Mid-tier beauty D2C brands of this scale typically run ₹15–40L/mo on Meta.
Google Ads (Search + Shopping)₹8–25 lakhBased on live Google Ads + Merchant Center tags and marketplace competition on head terms (hair oil, face serum, etc.).
Marketplace ads (Amazon/Nykaa/Flipkart)₹5–15 lakhSponsored placements on confirmed marketplaces.
Influencer/Creator₹5–20 lakhStrong short-video UGC strategy; ingredient-transparency content suggests active creator partnerships.
Total estimated₹33–100 lakh / mo (≈ ₹4–12 Cr/yr)Sum of ranges above.

Confidence: Low–Medium. These are benchmark-derived estimates, not measured figures. Treat as directional only.

Recommendation

Run a dedicated Meta Ads Library + Google Ads Transparency pull to replace this estimate with observed active-ad counts and creative themes. This was flagged as a gap rather than guessed at precision.
