Performance Marketing

    Performance Marketing Agency

    A performance marketing agency built for B2B firms that need paid media to source pipeline and closed revenue, not clicks and impressions. We run paid search, paid social, retargeting, landing page CRO, offer engineering, and CRM-based attribution as one orchestrated system, and we report on CAC, pipeline sourced, and closed revenue instead of CTR and CPM.

    Performance programs from $1,950 to $9,950 per month plus media

    What a performance marketing agency actually does

    A performance marketing agency plans, builds, and optimizes the paid channels that produce measurable revenue outcomes: Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, LinkedIn, Meta, YouTube, programmatic display, and retargeting, plus the landing pages, offers, and attribution stack that turn paid clicks into named opportunities in your CRM. Real performance marketing runs six coordinated workstreams: audience and intent research anchored to your ICP and offer, channel strategy and budget allocation across search and paid social, ad creative and copy production tied to buyer stage, high-converting landing pages with CRO and A/B testing, conversion tracking and offline conversion imports into ad platforms, and CRM-based revenue attribution that reports on CAC, pipeline, and closed revenue. Agencies that sell performance marketing as ad account management and a monthly PDF report are running media buying, not performance marketing. The difference shows up in the CAC trendline: media buying gets cheaper clicks; performance marketing gets cheaper customers.

    Why most performance programs stall (and how we fix it)

    Most B2B firms that describe their paid program as underperforming have the same three failure modes. First, the ad platforms optimize toward form fills and the form fills are junk, so CAC on the ad platform dashboard looks fine while CAC on closed revenue is 5 to 10x higher. Second, the landing pages are the site's generic service pages with no offer, no proof, and no conversion path built for cold paid traffic, so click-to-lead rate stays under 2 percent. Third, no offline conversion data flows back from the CRM to Google and LinkedIn, so the platforms optimize toward leads that never close. We rebuild the loop end to end. Every campaign ties to a documented ICP, a specific offer, a purpose-built landing page, and a downstream CRM stage. We push closed-won and opportunity data back to Google, LinkedIn, and Meta as offline conversions so the algorithms optimize toward revenue instead of forms. Every 30 days we cull audiences, keywords, and creatives that are not producing pipeline, double down on the ones that are, and rebuild the landing pages that are underconverting. That is why our performance clients see CAC drop 30 to 60 percent in the first two quarters instead of a rising monthly retainer with the same lead quality.

    Performance marketing plus AI-era buyer behavior

    Traditional performance marketing was built for a world where a paid click landed on a page, the buyer read it, and either converted or bounced. That world is changing fast. B2B buyers now research on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Reddit before they ever click a paid ad, and they arrive on your landing page with a shortlist already formed. If your paid landing pages read like a brochure instead of answering the specific question the buyer arrived with, click-to-lead rate collapses and CAC rises no matter how good the targeting is. Every landing page we build is engineered for the modern buyer: answer-first structure, quotable proof, category-definition language that matches how buyers describe the problem in AI chats, comparison content for shortlist queries, and integrated schema so the page also earns organic visibility. Combined with tight audience and offer strategy, this is how B2B firms are getting sub-2x LTV to CAC ratios from paid in 2026 instead of the 6-to-1 payback periods that killed paid budgets in the last cycle.

    Packages and pricing

    We sell performance marketing inside our three tiers so paid runs orchestrated with organic, ABM, and attribution instead of as an isolated ad account. Foundation at $1,950 per month is the starter paid engine: one channel (usually Google Ads or LinkedIn), campaign build, ad creative, one purpose-built landing page, conversion tracking setup, and monthly reporting. Media budget is separate and typically starts at $3,000 to $10,000 per month. Foundation fits firms testing paid as a channel for the first time. Growth at $4,950 per month is the full performance engine: 2 to 3 channels (Google, LinkedIn, Meta, or YouTube), full-funnel campaign structure, retargeting, 3 to 5 landing pages with monthly CRO and A/B testing, ad creative refresh every 30 days, offline conversion imports from your CRM, and monthly revenue and CAC reporting. Media budget typically $15,000 to $50,000 per month. Growth fits firms past $1M ARR scaling toward $10M. Dominance at $9,950 per month is the category-authority performance program: 4 or more channels, competitive conquesting, advanced audience modeling, branded content and paid amplification of organic assets, 10 or more landing page variants under continuous CRO, executive LinkedIn advertising, weekly optimization and pipeline review with a senior strategist, and quarterly business reviews tied to sourced revenue. Media budget typically $50,000 to $250,000 per month. Fractional CMO, RevOps, and creative studio overlays are available on top of any tier.

    What to expect in the first 90 days

    Weeks 1 through 3 are ICP and offer definition, competitive and SERP analysis, keyword and audience build, channel strategy and budget allocation, landing page wireframes, ad creative concepts, conversion tracking and offline conversion setup (GA4, Google Ads, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Meta CAPI, and CRM integration for HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, or Zoho). Weeks 3 through 6, campaigns launch on the first channel, the first landing pages ship, retargeting activates, and initial optimization begins on bids, audiences, and creatives. Weeks 6 through 12, secondary channels launch, CRO tests deploy on the top-traffic landing pages, offline conversion data begins flowing back to the ad platforms, and the algorithms start optimizing toward closed-won signals instead of form fills. By day 90, most B2B firms running Growth or Dominance see cost per qualified opportunity down 20 to 40 percent, click-to-lead rate up 2 to 3x on the rebuilt landing pages, first attributed closed revenue from paid, and a working feedback loop where CRM outcomes retrain the ad platforms weekly. The compounding curve shows up in months 4 through 9 as the algorithms mature on revenue signals and CAC continues to fall while volume scales.
