Tariffs have had a massive impact on ecommerce brands. One small shift in policy or supplier location and suddenly your landed costs are higher, your margins are tighter, and you're scrambling to adjust pricing or rethink your next inventory order. Nearly 7% of small businesses say they might not make it through the next two years, and that number jumps to 13% for those without access to financing.

Clearco’s free tariff assessment is here to take some of that pressure off. We help you look at your supply chain, your product niche, your ad performance, and even your competitor sourcing so you can plan ahead with more clarity. It’s built to give you the kind of insight that turns last-minute pivots into smart, proactive moves, with margin management in mind.

What to Expect from Clearco’s Free Tariff Review

Clearco’s team takes time to understand what makes your company tick. That includes what you sell, who you're selling to, and where your items come from. We also look at where products are being made by other brands, and what your investors expect in terms of growth or margin. With tariffs on goods from China reaching up to 245%, knowing where you source has a direct impact on what you can charge and keep.

We’ll also talk about how your team is structured. If you're using agencies, there may be ways to scale back without losing momentum. The goal is to guide you through how tariffs influence merchandise expenses, forecasting, and your overall profitability.

Smarter Supply Choices Start with the Right Questions

These questions are meant to enable you to make smarter decisions, not add more work to your plate. Maybe you’re weighing two manufacturers and trying to figure out which one makes more sense long term. Or you're noticing higher costs but aren't sure if they're tied to tariffs or agency fees. This assessment can pinpoint that.

You might also uncover opportunities by looking at where your competitors are sourcing or realize your growth targets don't quite match your current cost structure. With 72% of brands planning to increase local supply over the next year to reduce reliance on a single supplier, this level of visibility can help you stay prepared.

If you want to keep the pace going, Clearco’s team can work with you to sort through what’s next. From exploring new suppliers to finding ways to protect your margins, you’ll have support that’s grounded in your actual numbers and goals.
