Go-to-Market Strategy

Quiz funnel first, then AI-powered growth across all channels

TL;DR

Demand is LATENT, not aware — most people don't know they need peptides. Top of funnel is education, not "buy peptides." Content strategy: "Why do you feel tired at 40?", "Why can't you recover like you used to?" Everything starts with a free quiz (7-10 questions, personalized health score, 70-80% completion, waitlist like Function Health's 500K). Quiz educates and segments. Then blood work at $365 (includes first consultation + protocol recommendation) is the natural next step — NOT an app at $29/month. Trust journey: Quiz -> Blood work -> Consultation -> First single peptide order -> Results -> THEN subscription. We reach health-conscious adults where they already are: fitness YouTube, Reddit biohacking, wellness podcasts, and health optimization communities. AI creates content, tests 50+ ad variations per week. Ethical marketing from day one — Medvi proved the market, we prove you can do it right.

BioForge targets adults 30-55 who are serious about health optimization — the highest-LTV segment in peptide telehealth. Gender-inclusive from day 1 (Hims started men-only then added Hers to reach $2.4B). Demand is latent — education-first content creates the market. The go-to-market strategy is built on lean, organic-first growth with surgical paid media, reaching people where they already are: fitness YouTube, Reddit biohacking communities, wellness culture, and health-optimization podcasts. Waitlist model (like Function Health's 500K) builds scarcity and hype. Ethical marketing only — no deceptive practices.
