The problem

Most paid media is performance theatre.

Auctions are more competitive than ever. Tracking is fractured. Creative burns out in days. The result is rising CPM, falling ROAS and dashboards full of metrics that do not pay payroll.

We treat paid media like a P&L: spend tied to CAC, CAC tied to LTV, every dollar tracked to revenue. The output is a paid engine you can confidently scale, not one you cross your fingers over each Monday.

Outcomes

What this program delivers

Profitable scaling

Find the spend ceiling where CAC and ROAS stay healthy, then push it higher every quarter.

Higher-converting creative

In-house creative team producing dozens of variants per week to fight fatigue.

Better targeting

Audience design built on first-party data, not platform autopilot.

Clear attribution

MMM, incrementality and conversion APIs so you know which channel actually drove the deposit.

Fit check

Who this is for, and who it is not.

We do our best work with partners who match the brief. If you do not see yourself here, we will tell you up front.

How we work

How we run paid media

From audit to scaled program in weeks, not quarters.

01

Account & tracking audit

Full review of accounts, pixels, conversion APIs and attribution. We fix the leaks before pouring more spend in.

02

Channel & funnel strategy

We pick the right channels for your funnel stage, audience and unit economics, instead of running everything everywhere.

03

Creative engine

In-house creative team shipping concepts, variants and iterations weekly. Volume plus testing beats single hero ads every time.

04

Launch, optimise, scale

Daily monitoring, weekly optimisation, monthly scaling decisions. CAC, ROAS and LTV stay green as budget climbs.

05

Incrementality & MMM

We run lift tests and modelling to prove which channels are actually driving incremental revenue, not just last-clicking it.

Our methodology

The Cobao Loop.

A five-stage operating system we run across every Online Advertising engagement. It is how we go from kickoff to compounding wins without a 60-page strategy phase.

01 Diagnose

Audit, benchmark and pressure-test the current setup. No assumptions, no recycled decks.

02 Decide

One narrow strategy with clear KPIs and an opinionated roadmap. We cut what does not earn its keep.

03 Deploy

Ship the work in weeks. Assets, tracking and flows go live in production, not in a Notion doc.

04 Distribute

Earn attention where buyers actually look: AI surfaces, search, owned channels and paid in parallel.

05 Double down

Weekly reviews, monthly scaling decisions. Winners get more fuel, losers get killed fast.

Timeline

What happens in the first 90 days.

01

Kickoff & audit

Stakeholder interviews, full audit of your stack and benchmarks. You see exactly where you stand.

02

Strategy locked

Roadmap, KPIs and the first workstreams agreed. No 60-page decks, just clear next actions.

03

First wins live

Initial assets shipped, tracking hardened and the first measurable lifts in the dashboard.

04

Compounding

Engine running monthly. Wins double down, losers get killed, the roadmap pulls forward.

What you get

Everything included, nothing nickel-and-dimed.

      FAQ

      Answers, before you ask.

      Which channels do you run?

      Google, Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X, Pinterest, programmatic, native and most ad networks for regulated niches. We pick the channels your funnel needs, not the ones that pad a deck.

      Programs start to make sense around $25K/month in media. Below that, you are better off with a focused single-channel engagement.

      Yes. Concepts, statics, video, scripts and editing all in-house. Volume of creative is the single biggest unlock in modern paid media.
