Ads run on tracking we built and audit ourselves.
Performance agencies run ads on numbers they never verified. We audit and fix the measurement first, then manage Meta and Google on data we trust, and report on profit, not vanity ROAS.

Definition
What is measurement-led ads management?
Measurement-led ads management is running Meta and Google Ads on conversion data that has been audited and verified before a single budget decision is made. The sequence is audit first, manage second: tracking is inspected, deduplicated, and reconciled against the store's own order data, and only then do campaigns get built or taken over. Reporting is profit-based rather than platform-based, accounting for COGS, fees, and shipping instead of stopping at the ROAS number the ad platform grades itself with. Creative is run as a testing framework, with hooks, formats, and angles tested systematically and scored on contribution, not clicks. Enhanced conversions, CAPI deduplication, and consent-safe signal are treated as table stakes, not add-ons. The result is that the ad platforms optimise on complete, trustworthy signal, and the brand makes budget decisions on numbers it can defend.
What's included
Full management on both platforms
Strategy, structure, creative testing, and signal hygiene. The measurement layer underneath is ours too, which is the whole point.
Meta Ads
Full-funnel account management with creative testing at the centre, on top of CAPI signal we deduplicate and monitor ourselves.
- Full-funnel structure across TOF, MOF, and BOF, not one prospecting campaign doing everything
- CAPI hygiene: browser and server events deduplicated, event match quality monitored
- Creative testing framework: hooks, formats, and angles tested on a structured matrix
- DPA and catalog ads with a clean, complete product feed behind them
- Audience strategy: broad vs interest vs lookalike, with proper exclusions so you stop paying to reach buyers twice
Google Ads
Search, Shopping, and Performance Max with a healthy feed behind them and bidding strategies fed by verified conversion values.
- Search campaigns with ongoing search-term mining and a maintained negative keyword library
- Shopping and Performance Max structured so you can actually see what's driving results
- Merchant Center and feed health: titles, GTINs, disapprovals, and supplemental feeds handled
- tROAS and tCPA strategy set from verified conversion values, not platform defaults
- Enhanced conversions and offline conversion imports so bidding learns from real outcomes
The rule
Every engagement starts with the Paid Media Audit
No exceptions. We will not manage budgets on measurement we haven't verified, because that's how ad spend gets optimised against garbage. The audit is the entry point: fixed scope, evidence for every finding, and a ranked fix list you keep whether or not we ever touch your accounts.

- Conversion tracking integrity on both platforms
- Deduplication between browser and server events
- Account structure and wasted-spend patterns
- Feed and Merchant Center health
- Creative coverage and fatigue
How management starts
Audit, fix, take over, report
The same engine as everything else we do, applied to your ad accounts.
Audit
The Paid Media Audit verifies tracking, reconciles platform numbers against your store, and ranks what's broken.
Fix
Enhanced conversions, CAPI deduplication, feed health, and consent-safe signal repaired before budgets move.
Manage
We take over Meta and Google: structure, bidding, audiences, and a creative testing cadence that never stops.
Report on profit
The Unified Ads dashboard blends every channel into one profit view, so decisions run on contribution, not platform ROAS.
Reporting
Profit reporting, not platform scorecards
Every managed account gets the Unified Ads dashboard: Meta, Google, and your other channels blended into one view and reconciled against your store's order data. Reporting accounts for COGS, fees, and shipping, so you see what each channel, campaign, and creative actually contributes, not the number the ad platform grades itself with.

How it's priced
Management is monthly by nature
Creative fatigues, auctions shift, feeds break, and search terms drift. Ads management is a retainer module, not a project: an ongoing cadence of testing, signal hygiene, and profit review. It slots alongside our other retainer modules, so tracking health and reporting stay maintained by the same team that runs your spend.
