Scale paid social with better creative and better signals

Paid social performance comes from two things working together: creative that earns attention and signals that help platforms learn. We run Meta, TikTok, and LinkedIn on engineered first-party signals and a structured creative testing cadence.

Our dedicated team pairs social media consultants with the data bench that builds the Conversions API integrations and audience feeds the algorithms learn from.

Companies that use data to drive their marketing decisions see an average 26% increase in ROI

Creative and signal, one program

Signals the algorithms learn from

Conversions API, first-party audiences, and value feeds are engineered by our data team, so Advantage+ and Smart+ optimize on complete information.

Creative tested as a learning system

Concepts, hooks, and formats are produced in-house or with your team, then tested on a structured cadence. Creative learning carries into every round that follows.

Full-funnel, measured on business value

Awareness through conversion is planned as one system, measured on incrementality and business value, with platform numbers read alongside.

Paid Social Marketing Services

Creative, audiences, and signal engineering run as one program, measured on incremental revenue.

01

Discovery & Audit

Objectives & Baselines

We establish what social must deliver commercially: acquisition, revenue, audience growth, and the guardrails on each. Success criteria are agreed before any account work starts. Budgets and platform mix are recorded as the baseline the program is judged from.

Objectives & success criteria

Account & Signal Audit

Accounts and their signal infrastructure are audited together: structure, pixels, Conversions API coverage, and audience data quality. Findings are ranked by impact. Signal gaps are costed by the campaign learning they suppress.

Account & signal audit

Creative & Audience Review

Existing creative and audience performance are reviewed: which concepts, segments, and formats carry results, and where fatigue and overlap cost efficiency. The review sets the baseline the testing program is measured against.

Creative & audience findings

02

Research & Strategy

Creative Intelligence & Fatigue

Category creative and competitor activity are researched alongside your own fatigue data: how long concepts hold, which hooks decay fastest, and where a refresh beats new production. The creative plan is built from both.

DELIVERABLE

Creative intelligence & fatigue analysis

Social Strategy & Planning

The social strategy is set against the revenue targets: platform mix, funnel structure, budgets, audience architecture, and the creative production and testing plan behind it. The strategy is agreed with your team before accounts are restructured.

Signal & CAPI Implementation

Conversions API, first-party audience feeds, and value signals are implemented with our data team, tested against platform diagnostics before scale. Deduplication against browser events is verified on every platform.

Insights & Optimization

Management & Creative Rotation

Management runs to the strategy: budgets, audiences, and creative rotated to the fatigue data, with each change logged against its objective. Approval routes and spend thresholds are set before the first change ships.

DELIVERABLE

Ongoing management & change log

Incrementality & Reporting

Incrementality is tested with conversion lift studies and geo holdouts where platform numbers need proof, and reporting connects social spend to revenue and customer value. Growth is measured, not assumed. Each cycle delivers prioritized recommendations and their expected impact.

DELIVERABLE

Lift studies, reporting & recommendations

Creative & Signal Optimization

The testing program runs continuously: creative rounds, audience refreshes, and signal quality reviews, with learnings documented and carried into the next round. Each quarter closes with a review of results and the next quarter's plan.
