Start with Ruthless Focus

Pick a single success metric that truly matters—like qualified leads at a target cost, first purchases, or demo bookings. Align copy, landing pages, and budgets around it. Post your chosen metric below, and we’ll suggest a matching test plan.

Start with Ruthless Focus

Write a one-paragraph Ideal Customer Profile describing pains, triggers, and language. Exclude anyone unlikely to convert now. Use tight geo targeting and interest clusters. Tell us who your exact buyer is, and we’ll recommend low-cost targeting angles.

Start with Ruthless Focus

Harvest demand with long‑tail search

Target specific, action-oriented phrases on Google Ads or Microsoft Ads, like problem‑solution or product‑use cases. Use exact and phrase match with tight negatives. Start tiny, review search terms daily, and share your best converting query with us.

Protect and amplify branded queries

Bid on your brand name to control the message and defend against competitors. CPCs are usually low, and conversion rates are high. Test sitelinks for FAQs and offers. Tell us your brand term CPC, and we’ll suggest an optimization tweak.

Creative That Works Hard

Lead with a single, specific promise

Name the result and the audience in one line. Avoid buzzwords. Add a vivid, measurable detail. Example: “Cut onboarding time 38% for remote finance teams.” Share your version, and we’ll suggest a tighter variant for split testing this week.

Use scrappy, authentic visuals

Shoot simple, real footage: screens, hands, faces, voiceovers. Show the product solving a problem in ten seconds. Overlay captions for sound‑off. Post a link to your rough cut, and we’ll recommend a hook to lift thumb‑stop rate cheaply.

Iterate fast with micro‑tests

Test five headlines and two images at tiny spend, then concentrate on winners. Change one variable at a time. Keep a simple test log. Want our micro‑test template? Subscribe, and we’ll send the worksheet to structure your next sprint.

Budgets, Bids, and Pacing

Review hourly and geo performance. Daypart to your top hours, and exclude weak regions. Start with one or two high‑intent placements. Tell us your best converting hour or city, and we’ll suggest a precise allocation shift for tomorrow.

Measurement Without Expensive Tools

Standardize UTMs across ads, emails, and socials. Use a shared builder and naming rules. In GA4, create explorations for key paths. Post your current UTM schema, and we’ll help tighten it for reliable, low‑cost reporting.

A Real‑World Scrappy Win

The constraint

They had just $600 for three weeks to move slow seasonal inventory. No fancy software, no agency, just a founder, a phone camera, and a spreadsheet. Share your own constraint, and we’ll suggest a similarly tight plan.

The moves

They targeted long‑tail queries like “single origin holiday gift,” retargeted cart abandoners with a free grinder card, and ran a simple UGC video showing three brew methods. They dayparted to evenings and capped frequency aggressively.

The outcome

They achieved 3.7x ROAS, 41% new customers, and cleared the inventory with CPCs 35% below their norm. Lifetime value improved via a follow‑up sampler offer. What’s your best small‑budget result? Comment below and subscribe for deeper breakdowns.
