What changes for you
Your ad budget runs like a lab, not a guess
TL;DR: Our Social Media Advertising services turn attention into action across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and more. We manage audience research, ad creative, campaign setup, bid strategies, and reporting - so your brand reaches the right people, at the right time, with ads that convert.
The protocol every ad goes through
- 01HypothesisWhich audience, which hook, which format, and on which platform.
- 02VariantsSeveral versions of the ad, made for that platform and approved by you before launch.
- 03ReadEach variant gets a fair share of budget, then we compare results side by side.
- 04Scale or pauseThe winner gets more budget. The rest are paused, and the next test starts.
Inside the lab
Four benches every campaign passes through
Bench 01 · Audience building
Paid social, step by step
One plan across the feeds your customers scroll
Each platform has its own audience and its own kind of ad. We pick the channels that fit your customers, make creative for each, and retarget across them, so someone who watched on one app can pick up where they left off on another.
- Channels chosen by where your customers spend time
- Creative made for each platform, not resized
- Retargeting and reporting joined up across channels
Audience specimens
Example
Custom
Your customers and site visitors
Lookalike
People who resemble your buyers
Retargeting
People who already engaged
One shopper, three apps
- TikTokWatched on one app
- InstagramRetargeted on another
- PinterestAdded to cart
Example: three made-up ads, one winner scaled, two paused.
Bench 02 · Creative testing
Several versions of every ad, then let the results pick
We write and design a few versions of each ad, each with a different hook or format. They run against the same audience with a fair share of budget. The one that performs gets scaled, the others are paused, and fresh creative takes their place in the next round.
- Ad copy, carousels, video and Reels, and UGC ads
- You view, approve or request revisions before launch
- Creative refreshed on a cycle, so ads do not wear out
Bench 03 · Budget allocation
Budget follows the results, across every platform
Campaigns are structured from awareness to consideration to conversion, with budget set at each stage. When one platform or ad set pulls ahead, budget moves toward it, and bid strategies and placements are tuned as the data comes in.
- Budget allocated across the funnel, not one campaign
- Bid strategies and placements tuned as results come in
- The total stays at the budget you set
Your ad spend is your money. It is paid by you directly to Meta, TikTok, Pinterest and the other platforms, and it is not part of our management fee.
Example: a made-up weekly budget moving across platforms, with the total unchanged.
Bench 04 · Measurement
Results measured in sales and leads, not just likes
Pixel, Conversions API and GA4 tracking connect each ad to what happened after the click. Reports show the numbers that decide the next test, and tie ad spend back to eCommerce or lead-gen sales.
- Pixel, Conversions API and GA4 tracking
- CPM, CPC, CPA, ROAS and LTV/CAC side by side
- Early reads on audience and creative in the first weeks
