The leak
What we check
in every audit
Growth rarely stalls for lack of effort. It leaks.
Audit week · reading the numbers before touching the ads
Six leaks we look for in every account we audit. Each one quietly raises what you pay for a customer.
Traffic without conversion.
Symptom
Sessions and click-through climb while pipeline stays flat.
Cost
You pay full price for visits your pages can't close.
First fix
Match the ad's promise on the page, then run a conversion audit.
Creative without strategy.
Symptom
Ads win the review meeting and lose the auction.
Cost
Budget follows taste, so the ideas that actually perform get starved.
First fix
A testing framework that treats hooks, formats and offers as hypotheses.
Spend without attribution.
Symptom
Nobody can say which dollar produced which customer.
Cost
Budget moves on opinion, and the loudest channel wins.
First fix
Server-side tracking, with CRM revenue tied back to its source.
Content without distribution.
Symptom
Forty posts a month, read by the same few hundred people.
Cost
Production costs with no demand attached.
First fix
Plan distribution first, then brief fewer and stronger assets.
Acquisition without retention.
Symptom
Customers leave before they've paid back what they cost to acquire.
Cost
You end up buying the same revenue twice.
First fix
Payback modeling and a lifecycle program before spend scales.
Growth without a system.
Symptom
Every quarter starts from a blank page.
Cost
Wins don't compound, because nothing gets written down.
First fix
A weekly learning loop and an experiment log you own.
Leak 01 of 06
Traffic without conversion
Symptom
Sessions and click-through climb while pipeline stays flat.
What it costs
You pay full price for visits your pages can't close.
Where we start
Match the ad's promise on the page, then run a conversion audit.
P&L
Point of view
Five beliefs behind
every plan we write
We think marketing should answer to the P&L.
These beliefs shape every plan we write. They're why our reports lead with revenue, and why we'll sometimes tell you to spend less.
Revenue first, platform metrics second
Distribution beats volume.
One strong asset in front of the right 50,000 people outperforms ten assets nobody sees. We plan distribution before we brief production.
Conversion starts in the ad.
The ad makes a promise and the page has to keep it. We write them together, so intent carries from the click through to checkout.
Creative is a performance variable.
Hooks, formats and offers are tested with the same discipline as bids and budgets. Taste starts the test. Data decides it.
Acquisition without retention is leakage.
If customers don't come back, you're renting revenue. We model payback and lifetime value before we scale spend.
If it can't reach the P&L, it's a status update.
Impressions and followers are inputs. We report on pipeline, margin and payback, and tie every input to one of them.
Capabilities
Nine services,
one plan, one owner
Nine capabilities. One owner for the whole funnel.
Hire us for one, or for the system. Each capability maps to a stage of your customer journey and to a number we're accountable for.
What it is
A 90-day plan built from your unit economics: where demand is, what it costs to capture, and which constraint to remove first.
Why it matters
Without one plan, channels compete for budget instead of working toward one number.

Weekly leads vs. booked tours
26 weeks · sample
Week 26: 131 tours a week, 2.1× the baseline, on 30% more budget.
Challenge
1 / 5
Leads were up 60% on last year. Tours hadn't moved.
Cost per new member had doubled in twelve months. The previous agency's answer was a bigger budget for more leads.
Weeks 1–4: about 150 leads a week, but only 62 booked tours.
Insight
2 / 5
Two-thirds of leads never had a location in mind.
Broad “coworking near me” searches all landed on one generic homepage. After 6pm, tour requests sat in an inbox until morning, and evenings were when most founders had time to book.
Week 5: the audit shows two-thirds of leads come from broad searches that land on one generic page.
Strategy
3 / 5
Stop buying volume. Start buying tours.
We rebuilt the program around location-level intent and changed the target every channel is judged on, from cost per lead to cost per booked tour.
Week 6: the target changes from cost per lead to cost per booked tour.
Execution
4 / 5
Fourteen location pages, one booking calendar, no waiting.
Location pages with live tour slots, search campaigns split by location, call tracking wired into the CRM, and an after-hours SMS booking flow.
Weeks 8–14: location pages, call tracking and after-hours booking go live. Tours climb while leads dip.
Result
5 / 5
Twice the tours. A lower cost for each one.
By week 26, weekly tours had gone from 62 to 131. Budget rose 30% as results held, and cost per booked tour still fell 38%.

Approach · The Margin method
Six steps, repeated until growth compounds.
Every engagement runs on the same operating system. The first cycle takes about 90 days. Each one after that starts from a higher base.
01
Weeks 1–2
Audit
We start in your unit economics, not your ad account: margins, payback, lifetime value by channel, and which data we can trust.
Output
Growth audit and margin map
02
Week 3
Isolate
We name the one constraint that caps growth right now. Money spent fixing anything else first is money wasted.
Output
Constraint memo
03
Weeks 3–4
Position
We sharpen the offer and the message against real buying questions, then write the test plan.
Output
Messaging architecture and test backlog

Weeks 4–8

Pages, creative, tracking and campaigns ship together, measured from day one.
Output

Why clients stay
Six differences you'll
notice in month one
Less agency theater. More operating partner.
Senior people, small room, fast decisions
The usual setup
How we work
Usually
A senior pitch, then a junior account team.
The strategist who scoped your plan runs your account.
Every client has a named senior lead on the weekly call. No relay layers between you and the people doing the work.
Usually
Creative judged in a meeting.
Creative judged by the auction.
Every concept ships as a test with its success metric agreed before production starts.
Usually
A monthly PDF of platform metrics.
Weekly reporting in pipeline and revenue.
Your dashboard reconciles ad spend to revenue in your CRM, not to conversions the platforms report about themselves.
Usually
Tests chosen to look busy.
A ranked test backlog tied to one constraint.
Each test has a hypothesis, a minimum detectable effect and an end date.
Usually
Channels run by separate teams.
One team owns the funnel end to end.
Paid, creative, pages and lifecycle report into one plan and one number.
Usually
A twelve-month lock-in.
Rolling terms after the first 90 days.
We earn the renewal every quarter. Edit to match your contract terms.
Experimentation
Every result
is logged
Every week, the plan gets a little less wrong.
Every test follows the same loop and every result goes in the log. After a year, you own a written record of what works for your customers.
Step 1 of 6
Hypothesis
“We believe this change will move this metric by this much, because of this evidence.” Written down before anything is built.
The smallest version that can prove or disprove it: one page variant, one ad concept, one email.
Traffic or budget is split, with the sample size and end date fixed in advance.
Read against revenue metrics like cost per acquisition and revenue per visitor, not clicks alone.
The result goes in the log, including what failed and why we think it failed.
Winners get budget. The next hypothesis starts from the new baseline.

Client fit
Read this
before you book
We're right for some companies. Here's how to tell.
Good fit
You have proven demand: customers buy, and you want more of them at a better cost.
You spend, or are ready to spend, $XXk+ a month on acquisition.
Leadership wants reporting in revenue and will share CRM data.
You can make decisions weekly, not quarterly.
You want a partner who'll say “don't spend that” when the numbers say so.
Probably not yet
You're still looking for product–market fit.
You need a growth hack that works by Friday.
You want deliverables counted in posts, not results counted in revenue.
Getting data access would take months of negotiation.
You're shopping for the lowest retainer in the market.
Not sure which column you're in? Ask on the call. We'll give you a straight answer.

What people ask before they sign.
Anything not covered here is what the strategy call is for.
Book a growth strategy call
Most engagements start within two weeks of signing. The first two weeks are the audit, so you see our read on your numbers before we touch your spend.
Usually companies with $XM–$XXM in annual revenue and proven demand. Below that, product and pricing tend to matter more than a growth team.
Yes. Creative strategy and production are in-house, from ad concepts and video edits to landing pages. We produce in test batches, so spend follows performance.
The first engagement is 90 days, because that's the minimum to run one full cycle. After that it's month to month. Edit to match your terms.
A live dashboard connected to your ad platforms and CRM, a weekly snapshot and a monthly review. Every report leads with pipeline, revenue and acquisition cost.
Often that's the best setup. We can own strategy and paid media while your team keeps brand and content, or work alongside an in-house lead. Roles are agreed in writing at kickoff.
A kickoff call, access to ad accounts, analytics and CRM, a tracking audit, and short interviews with your sales or support team. By day 14 you have the growth audit and the first 90-day plan.
Against targets we agree before launch, usually acquisition cost, payback period and revenue from marketing-sourced pipeline. If a metric doesn't connect to revenue, we don't use it to judge ourselves.
