Campaigns Measured
On Revenue, Not Reach
For an online store there is only one honest measure of a campaign: what it returned. We run Shopping, Performance Max and Meta campaigns for Australian e-commerce brands against return on ad spend and contribution margin.
Traffic is easy to buy. Profitable traffic is not
Most underperforming e-commerce accounts are not short of traffic — they are short of structure. Budget is spread evenly across a catalogue where a handful of products carry all the margin, Performance Max is left to its own devices with no feed discipline, and the reported return counts every sale the customer would have made anyway.
We tighten the feed, split the catalogue by margin and intent, and measure against the numbers that actually determine whether the store makes money.
Structure, Feed And Creative
The three things that decide whether an e-commerce account is profitable.
Product feed optimisation
Titles, attributes, categories and imagery cleaned up so Google can actually match your products to searches. Most Shopping underperformance starts in the feed, not the bidding.
Shopping and Performance Max
Campaigns split by margin, bestseller status and intent rather than dumped into one catch-all, so budget follows the products that are worth selling.
Meta catalogue and creative
Dynamic product ads plus creative-led prospecting on Facebook and Instagram, which is where most new customer acquisition happens for consumer brands.
Full-funnel retargeting
Abandoned cart, abandoned browse and post-purchase sequences, so you are not paying to reacquire people you already reached.
Tracking that survives ad blockers
Server-side tracking through the Meta Conversions API and Google Enhanced Conversions, so reported revenue stays close to real revenue.
Store speed and conversion rate
The cheapest performance gain is usually on-site. We fix load times and checkout friction rather than buying more traffic to paper over them.

E-commerce Marketing Questions, Answered
We work with the major hosted platforms and with custom builds. Because we also build websites and web applications, we are not limited to configuring a theme — if the store itself is the bottleneck we can fix it. See website development.
Yes, both. Performance Max in particular needs feed discipline and clear campaign segmentation to work well, otherwise it tends to spend the budget on branded searches you would have won anyway and report an inflated return.
It depends entirely on your margin, price point and repeat purchase rate — a brand with 70% margin and strong repeat purchase can profit at a return that would bankrupt a low-margin reseller. We work out what your break-even return actually is before setting targets, rather than quoting an industry average.
We generally recommend a minimum of $3,000 per month for Google in competitive retail categories, and $2,500 or more per month on Meta once you are scaling. Below that there is rarely enough conversion data for the platforms to optimise properly.
Yes. Creative is the main performance lever on Meta for consumer brands, so ad creative and copywriting are included across our packages, with video production on the Dominate plan. See our Meta Ads packages.
