Where Bustly does more for DTC

01 · DTC experts

DTC experts with the methods already built in.

Choose a customer acquisition, product launch, customer retention or research expert. Each has a defined remit, a working method and output requirements, and selects relevant Skills and authorized tools. Your team supplies the business goal and context; it does not need to design the expert’s instructions from scratch.

A DTC expert combines professional methods, Skills and authorized tools

02 · Prebuilt Skills

A ready-made library of ecommerce Skills.

Prebuilt Skills cover methods such as ad audits, review analysis and product content. They define the inputs, sequence and checks for the work. Experts choose and combine the relevant methods, giving the team a repeatable starting point alongside its own custom Skills.

Prebuilt ecommerce Skills with inputs, methods and verification steps

03 · Shared team Skills

Keep brand methods in the team’s Skills library.

Save recurring instructions, brand rules and output formats as workspace Skills. Members can reuse the same method, while a dedicated management permission controls who maintains the shared library. A useful workflow becomes a team resource instead of remaining in one person’s task.

A workspace library shares brand rules and operating methods with team members

04 · Application permissions

Give each person the account access their work needs.

Assign connected applications and supported account resources to a business group, then set members’ access to none, read or action. Managing workspace settings is a separate responsibility from using store or advertising data. Experts work within the current member’s authorized scope.

Member access to specific accounts: no access, read, or read and write
