Common questions

Asked about performance marketing.

Do you require a minimum spend?
We work best with $20K/mo+ ad budget; we will tell you honestly if less.
Who owns the ad accounts?
You do. Always. We never hold business-critical accounts hostage.
Do you do programmatic and CTV?
Yes — DV360, TTD, and direct CTV publishers with measurement baked in.
How do you measure incrementality, not just ROAS?
Geo holdouts, ghost ads, PSA tests, and MMM. We never let the platform self-reported ROAS be the only number on the table.
