Performance marketing isn’t a channel — it’s an operating discipline. This page covers how we run paid acquisition for e-commerce brands: the channels we deploy, how we measure, and what you should expect in the first 90 days.
Why Performance Marketing
When done well, paid acquisition gives you a dial: more spend in, more revenue out, predictably. The job of a performance team is to make that dial as efficient as physics will allow, then keep it that way as the market shifts.
Most brands we onboard are leaving 30–40% of their potential revenue on the table — usually because their account structure was built for a different stage of the business and never refactored, or because creative testing has plateaued.
Our Channels
We don’t run every channel for every client. The mix is driven by where your customer actually spends their attention and where the unit economics close.
Still the highest-leverage prospecting channel for most DTC brands. Our Meta playbook leans on Advantage+ for prospecting, layered with manual exclusions for retargeting hygiene. Creative is tested in batches of 6–10 per week, retired only after statistical significance — never on gut feel.
Typical results in the first 60 days: 20–40% reduction in CAC at constant volume, achieved primarily through creative cycling rather than budget shifts.
The unfair advantage in Google for e-commerce is Performance Max — when configured right. We segment by margin tier, feed clean product titles, and never let asset groups blend cold prospecting with branded search (the most common Pmax mistake we see in audits).
Shopping campaigns sit underneath Pmax for the categories where you want manual control over bidding.
TikTok works for brands with strong creative muscle and a willingness to publish weekly. Our role is to translate organic-feeling content into a paid testing matrix that doesn’t burn the brand’s authenticity.
Get Results
Within the first 30 days you’ll have a clean account structure, a measurement plan you can defend to your CFO, and the first wave of creative tests in market. The compounding shows up in months two and three as the testing cadence builds a library of proven angles.
