Engineering Profitable Growth Through Algorithmic Media Buying
We manage and deploy high-conviction ad spend across Paid Social, Connected TV, and programmatic channels for high-growth US brands. No vanity metrics. Just quantifiable contribution margin and sustainable scaling.
Full-Funnel Paid Acquisition Channels
We engineer omnichannel media strategies across high-intent, high-converting platforms designed for scalable customer acquisition.
Meta Ads (Instagram & Facebook)
Leveraging Advantage+ Shopping Campaigns (ASC), broad algorithmic bidding, and dynamic creative testing matrices to unlock scale without hitting cost-per-acquisition ceilings.
TikTok Performance Ads
Direct-response TikTok ad architecture using creator-licensed Spark Ads, Interactive Add-ons, and high-cadence hook iteration tailored for viral conversion loops.
Connected TV (CTV & OTT)
Bringing programmatic precision to the living room screen via Hulu, Roku, Peacock, and Apple TV with cross-device household identity graph tracking.
YouTube Action & Shorts
High-converting video action campaigns (VAC) and YouTube Shorts engineered with 5-second problem hooks and direct checkout calls-to-action.
Pinterest Performance Media
Capturing high-intent visual searchers earlier in their consideration cycle with dynamic catalog feeds and shopping collections that boast higher AOV.
Omnichannel Programmatic DSP
Direct publisher integration and real-time bidding algorithms across premium editorial, podcast audio, and native distribution networks.
Paid Social Campaign Architecture
How our US media buyers structure, test, and scale ad accounts to prevent ad fatigue and maximize contribution margin.
The Dynamic Sandbox Framework
We separate hypothesis testing from core budget scaling. Instead of polluting winning ad sets with experimental creatives, each campaign runs inside an isolated bid chamber:
Full-Funnel Audience Synthesis
Modern paid social requires machine-learning optimization over manual hyper-targeting. We instruct platform neural networks with high-intent signals:
The Creative Engine Behind the Ad Spend
In algorithmic media buying, creative is your targeting. We pair data-backed performance metrics with continuous creative production.
Hook Mining
Analyzing comment sections, customer reviews, and competitor spend to extract 10+ emotional hooks per product line.
UGC & Motion Sourcing
Coordinating with vetted US creator networks to record authentic 4K content with native platform aesthetics.
Iterative Matrixing
Testing 4 hook variants x 3 body angles x 2 call-to-actions, generating 24 distinct assets from every shoot.
Dropoff Diagnostics
Tracking 3-second thumbstop rates and average watch times to iterate edits before ad fatigue sets in.
Attribution & Blended MER Scaling
Never scale based on platform vanity metrics. We install server-side tracking infrastructure and evaluate total business contribution.
By bypassing browser-level ad blockers with AWS-hosted Conversions API (CAPI) gateways, our clients recover up to 34% of unrecorded sales events, training platform algorithms on true purchaser profiles.
The 3 Pillars of Accurate Media Scaling
- Marketing Efficiency Ratio (MER): Total Shopify/Stripe Gross Revenue divided by Total Media Spend for real cashflow health.
- First-Party Attribution (Northbeam & TripleWhale): Multi-touch click attribution models confirming incrementality.
- Cohort 60-Day Payback Curve: Tracking customer repeat purchase curves to justify higher upfront day-0 CAC thresholds.

What Founders & CMOs Say
