Your Product Works. Your CAC Is Eating the Margin.
We've run paid media to $6M a year for CraftShack and $80M+ in new revenue for TickPick, hitting ROAS targets every year. Now we're looking for our first ecommerce partnership.
Advertising Beast partners with founders whose product sells and whose acquisition math has stopped working. You keep running the brand. We bring the acquisition engine, the tracking and the capital behind it.
The Aggregator Bought Brands. Then It Let Them Rot.
You know how that story went. Capital arrived, the founder left, the listings stopped being tended, the creative stopped being refreshed, and a brand that people liked became a line item that people managed.
The buyer's plan is almost always the same: keep the revenue, cut the cost, call it operational efficiency. It works for a quarter. Then contribution margin flattens and nobody in the room knows how to buy a customer profitably again.
We've spent eleven years on the other side of that equation, inside the ad accounts and listings, watching blended CAC and ROAS like a fuel gauge.
A cap table has never bought a customer profitably.
What Money Alone Doesn't Buy
An Acquisition Engine, Not an Ad Budget
Google, Meta, Shopping, Amazon Ads and retail media, plus the listings and landing pages underneath. Most brands aren't demand-capped. They're economics-capped, and nobody has separated the two for them.
We Didn't Read About Ecommerce Media. We Bought It.
Every claim on this page is agency work with a client attached to it. Our first ecommerce partnership is ahead of us, not behind us, we'd rather say that than pretend otherwise. Ask us for the reference on the first call.
36 months · ROAS targets hit every year · client for 3.5+ years
Vertical and keyword expansion managed against return on ad spend and new-user revenue, not total spend.
4+ years · ROAS targets hit every year
Shopping, search and remarketing run as one system with category-specific landing pages behind it.
Search, shopping and marketplace advertising
Category-level media where margin, not impressions, decides how far spend can go.
Two decades of category experience and a decade of buying it profitably. That machine is what we're offering to put behind your brand, with our own money in it this time.
Both Will Wire the Money. Only One Can Grow the Brand.
Four Steps. No Broker. No Pressure.
- 01
We get to know your brand.
We study your numbers, your category, and how you acquire customers today. We do our homework before anyone talks about terms.
- 02
We tell you what we'd change.
Where the acquisition math breaks, what it would cost to fix it, and how fast. If the honest answer is that you don't need a partner, that's the answer you'll get.
- 03
We design the structure around your goals.
Most of our conversations are about investing alongside a founder rather than buying a brand outright. Every structure is built individually.
- 04
We build.
Your product and category knowledge, our acquisition infrastructure, one agreed plan.
From first conversation through diligence to close, expect two to three months.
Questions owners ask us.
Tell Us What You've Built.
Tell us about your brand and what you want for its next chapter. If a partnership makes sense for both sides, we'll say so. If it doesn't, we'll say that too.
- A direct conversation with the people making the decision, not a sales team.
