Ads & Performance Marketing

Paid campaigns on Meta, Google and LinkedIn — set up, tracked properly, and optimised against real business results rather than vanity metrics.

Ads & Performance Marketing — an illustration of the tools and systems involved

What we deliver

20 services in this discipline. Each one says what it includes and how we approach it — no jargon, no vague promises.

    01

    Meta Ads (Facebook & Instagram)

    Campaign structure, audiences and creative built for leads and sales, not just reach.

    We set up campaigns with a clean structure — separate campaigns for cold, warm and retargeting audiences — so budget goes where it performs. Objectives are matched to the actual business goal rather than defaulting to traffic, which is where most wasted spend comes from. Results are reported as cost per lead or sale, not impressions.

    03

    Google Display Ads

    Display campaigns with placement control, so your ads don't end up on junk sites.

    Targeting built around audiences and topics that fit, with placement exclusions applied before launch rather than after you see the report. Creative is produced in the sizes that actually get inventory. Display works best for retargeting and awareness, and we'll say so if it isn't right for your objective.

    04

    Google Shopping Ads

    Merchant Center feed, product data and campaign structure for e-commerce.

    Merchant Center set up correctly, product feed cleaned and enriched, and campaigns structured so your best products get the budget. Feed quality determines Shopping performance more than bidding does, so that's where we start. Disapprovals and feed errors are monitored, since they silently kill visibility.

    05

    YouTube Ads

    Video campaigns with the right format, targeting and hook for the objective.

    Format chosen to match the goal — skippable in-stream for reach, in-feed for consideration, shorts for lower cost. The first five seconds are treated as the most important part of the creative, because that's where you're judged. Conversion tracking is set up so YouTube spend is measurable rather than assumed.

    06

    LinkedIn Ads

    B2B campaigns targeting job title, company size and industry.

    Targeting by job title, seniority, company size and industry, with lead gen forms that pre-fill from the user's profile to lift conversion. LinkedIn costs more per click, so we focus on offers worth a B2B buyer's attention rather than generic ads. Lead quality is tracked through to your CRM, not just form fills.

    07

    Lead Generation Campaigns

    Campaigns built around cost per qualified lead, with the follow-up automation attached.

    The campaign, the form, the landing page and the follow-up are treated as one system, because a good ad with slow follow-up still fails. Leads flow straight into WhatsApp, your CRM or a Telegram alert so response time stays under a few minutes. We optimise toward qualified leads, filtering out the cheap-but-useless ones.

    08

    Retargeting & Remarketing

    Bring back the people who visited, viewed a product or abandoned a cart.

    Audiences segmented by what someone actually did — viewed a page, watched a video, added to cart — with messaging matched to each stage. Frequency caps and exclusion of recent converters keep it from becoming irritating. This is usually the highest-return spend in an account, provided tracking is set up correctly.

    09

    Meta Pixel & Conversions API Setup

    Server-side tracking so conversions still get attributed after browser restrictions.

    Pixel plus Conversions API with event deduplication, so conversions are still recorded when browsers and ad blockers stop client-side tracking. Standard and custom events are mapped to real business actions rather than generic page views. Event Match Quality is checked and improved, because it directly affects delivery.

    10

    Google Analytics 4 & Tag Manager Setup

    GA4 and GTM configured properly so your reports mean something.

    GA4 configured with meaningful events, conversions and audiences, deployed through Tag Manager so future changes don't need a developer. Cross-domain tracking, internal traffic filtering and referral exclusions are handled at setup. You get documentation of what each event means, so reports are interpretable months later.

    11

    Conversion Tracking Setup

    Every meaningful action tracked end to end, from click to closed sale.

    Form submissions, calls, WhatsApp clicks, purchases and offline conversions wired back to the campaign that caused them. Without this, optimisation is guesswork and the platforms optimise toward the wrong thing. Where possible we import closed sales, so the algorithm learns what a good lead actually looks like.

    12

    Click-to-WhatsApp Ad Campaigns

    Ads that open a WhatsApp chat, connected to automated qualification and follow-up.

    Ads open directly into WhatsApp with a pre-filled message, and our automation qualifies the enquiry before a person gets involved. This removes the landing page step entirely, which usually lifts conversion sharply for local and service businesses. Conversation source is tracked so you know which ad produced which customer.

    13

    App Install Campaigns

    User acquisition campaigns measured on in-app actions, not just installs.

    Campaigns across Google and Meta with SDK or attribution platform integration, so you measure activated users rather than raw installs. Creative is produced in the formats each network actually serves. Post-install events are fed back so bidding optimises for users who stay.

    14

    Landing Page & Funnel Setup

    Fast, focused pages built for the campaign, with the whole funnel tracked.

    A page built for one offer and one action, loading fast enough that paid traffic doesn't bounce before it renders. Form, thank-you page, tracking and follow-up sequence are set up as one funnel rather than separate pieces. Because we build the pages ourselves, campaign and page can be changed together.

    15

    Ad Creative & Copy

    Multiple creative and copy variants per campaign, because one ad is not a test.

    Static, carousel and video variants with different hooks and angles, so the platform has something to optimise between. Copy is written to the audience's stage of awareness rather than describing features to everyone equally. Winning angles are documented, which makes the next campaign faster to launch.

    16

    Audience Research & Targeting

    Work out who actually buys before spending money reaching everyone.

    We build audience definitions from your existing customer data, competitor analysis and platform insights, then structure campaigns around them. Lookalike and custom audiences are created from your highest-value customers rather than all leads. Exclusions matter as much as inclusions and are set from the start.

    17

    A/B Testing & Optimization

    Structured tests on creative, audiences and pages, one variable at a time.

    Tests are run with enough budget and duration to reach a conclusion, changing one variable at a time so results mean something. Losing variants are turned off on evidence rather than instinct. Every test result is recorded, so the account gets smarter over months instead of restarting each quarter.

    18

    Campaign Audit

    A review of an existing account: what's wasting money and what to fix first.

    We review account structure, targeting, tracking accuracy, creative, bidding and search terms, then deliver a prioritised list of fixes with the expected impact of each. Frequently the biggest win is a tracking fix rather than a bidding change. The audit is useful whether or not you continue with us.

    19

    Budget & Bid Management

    Ongoing budget allocation and bidding, shifted toward what's actually producing results.

    Budget is moved toward campaigns and audiences producing profitable results, with bidding strategy matched to your data volume — automated bidding needs conversions to learn from. Pacing is monitored so budget isn't spent in the first week of the month. Changes are made deliberately, since constant tinkering resets the learning phase.

    20

    Performance Reporting Dashboards

    One live dashboard across all platforms, in your language rather than the platform's.

    Spend, leads, cost per lead, conversion rate and revenue pulled from every platform into one live dashboard you can open any time. Metrics are defined in business terms rather than platform terms, so numbers reconcile across sources. Scheduled summaries can be sent to WhatsApp or email if you'd rather not log in.
