ad spend as percentage of revenue

This is one of the most common questions growing businesses ask. And the honest answer is: it depends. Not on some magic formula. It depends on your margins, your growth goals, your cost to get a customer, and how much your customer is worth to you over time. But there are some clear guidelines that […]

Should You Run Paid Social on Multiple Platforms or Focus on Just One?

You are running Meta ads. They are working. Someone tells you to try TikTok. Or YouTube. Or LinkedIn. And now you are wondering if you should be doing more. It is a fair question.

scaling metrics

The metrics most businesses track when running Meta ads are the ones the platform puts at the top of the dashboard: CTR, ROAS, cost per result, impressions, reach. These are useful numbers.

How Do I Use My Existing Customer Data to Find Better Audiences on Meta?

Meta custom audiences

Most scaling businesses have a data asset they are barely using. Their CRM contains records of every customer who has ever bought from them, the products they purchased, how much they spent, how often they came back.

full-funnel Meta ads strategy

Most businesses running Meta ads are only running half a campaign instead of a full-funnel Meta ads strategy.
