The Problem
Why most agencies do not workfor founders like you
Misaligned incentives
Agencies get paid on retainer whether you grow or not. Your success is not their emergency.
Junior teams learning on your budget
The senior person who sold you the contract hands you off to someone six months into the job.
Optimising for pretty reports, not profit
ROAS that looks good on a slide deck. Revenue that does not move. You know the feeling.
High churn, zero continuity
Every few months there is a new account manager who needs three weeks to get up to speed.
No real ownership of your growth
At the end of the day, it is your brand. But no one at the agency is losing sleep over your numbers.
The Shift
Media buying is automated now.Strategy is the edge.
Advantage+. PMax. The platforms have automated targeting and bidding. The levers your old agency was pulling? The algorithm does that now.
What the algorithm cannot do: creative strategy, offer architecture, measurement that actually maps to profit, and the high-level decisions that determine whether you scale or stall. That is where I come in.
Most agencies have not caught up to this reality. They are still charging for what is now commoditised — and ignoring what actually moves the needle. Founders who understand this are the ones quietly outpacing everyone else in their category.
How We Work
The three levers thatactually move your numbers

Meet The Founder
I spent years inside the agency model — then I watched it break.
12 years in ecommerce and performance marketing. I have built and managed accounts from zero to significant scale. I have seen how the agency model works from the inside — the pitch, the handoffs, the reporting theatre, the churn.
I do not run an agency anymore. I work directly with a small number of D2C founders who are serious about profitable growth. That means you get me — not a junior team, not a rotating cast of account managers.
