Our Philosophy

Built for brands that refuse to plateau.

Most agencies sell you activity. Reports, calls, dashboards. They look busy. Your revenue doesn't move.

Meridian is built differently. We take full ownership of your paid media — creative, strategy, execution, optimization — and we measure our worth in one currency: your growth.

We work with a deliberate portfolio of brands. Not hundreds of clients. The ones we choose, we commit to completely.

How It Works

Three phases. One direction.

01
Week 1 — Discovery

Free Audit & Strategy Blueprint

We dissect your ad account, creative library, funnel, and ROAS. You receive a detailed breakdown of exactly where revenue is being lost — and a specific action plan. No charge. No obligation.

02
Days 1–30 — Ignition

Launch & Rapid Creative Testing

We rebuild your campaign architecture, test 10–15 creative angles, and identify your highest-converting combinations fast. The first 30 days are about proof, not promises.

03
Days 30–90+ — Scale

Scale What Wins. Cut What Doesn't.

Budget concentrates on proven winners. Creative refreshes weekly. ROAS compounds. You receive full documentation — the playbook is yours, not ours.

Results

Selected work. Real numbers.

The founder had been running the same two static ads for 7 months. Frequency was at 4.8. Every new campaign died in the learning phase — budget split across 6 ad sets, none of them getting enough data. We consolidated into one campaign, tested 9 UGC hooks in two weeks. Hook #6 — a 22-second video of someone describing joint pain while hiking — broke through. Ran profitably for 11 weeks before fatigue.

Came to us convinced she needed to triple her budget. The actual problem: 0.7% CVR on a product with 4.8 stars and 340 reviews. The ads were decent — the page was losing the sale. We didn't touch the budget. Found three friction points in the product page, sent CRO recommendations to her developer, relaunched with the same spend. CVR moved to 2.4%. Then we scaled.

Every time they pushed past $8K, ROAS collapsed. Audience saturation was the assumption. It wasn't — creative fatigue hit at the same threshold every time. The entire account ran on three videos filmed in 2022. We introduced a weekly refresh system: two new UGC angles per week, each tested at $30/day. Winners promoted. In 8 weeks, 14 active creatives in rotation. Scaling past $20K stopped being a ceiling.

The previous agency had set up Traffic campaigns optimized for link clicks. Meta was sending visitors with zero purchase intent — 14 months of data completely useless for conversion optimization. We rebuilt with Sales objective, consolidated to one campaign, and let it run through the learning phase without touching it. Week 5: algorithm had enough signal. ROAS crossed 2.5× and held.

One slot open — this quarter

Be the next
story we tell.

We take on a small number of new brands each quarter. Not to grow a roster — to protect the attention each client gets. If you have a product worth scaling, we want to hear about it.

Our Commitment

If we don't hit your ROAS target in 60 days, we work free until we do.

We don't profit unless you profit. That is not a marketing line — it is how our entire pricing architecture is built.

01

No Long-Term Lock-In

Month-to-month after the initial 90-day period. Stay because results compound, not because a contract holds you.

02

You Own Everything

Ad accounts, creatives, data, playbooks — entirely yours from day one. We build your asset. Not ours.

03

30-Day Proof of Concept

First month at $500 flat. If we don't demonstrate clear signal in 30 days, you pay nothing more.

FAQ

Straight answers. No filler.

What is the minimum ad budget to get started?
+
Our Ignite plan is designed for brands investing a minimum of $3,000/month in ad spend — that is where the algorithm begins to generate reliable data. That said, every brand is different, and we are open to discussing what makes sense for your specific situation. Reach out and we will be straightforward with you.
How quickly will I see results?
+
Most brands see meaningful ROAS improvement within the first 30 days. Full momentum typically builds by day 60–90 as the algorithm trains on optimized conversion data.
What if I don't have video content or creative assets?
+
We coordinate UGC creators who receive your product and produce authentic, high-converting content remotely. We handle the brief, direction, and editing. You ship product — we handle everything else.
Where are your clients based? Do you work globally?
+
We work with brands anywhere in the world. Our team operates 100% remotely, which means location has never been a barrier — for us or our clients. We have worked with brands across North America, Europe, Latin America, and beyond. If you have a product and the ambition to scale it, we can work together.
What exactly is included in the free audit?
+
A complete review of your Meta and/or Google ad account, creative performance analysis, funnel diagnosis, ROAS benchmarking against your category, and a specific action plan. Delivered within 48 hours. No sales call unless you request one.
What happens after 90 days?
+
We move to a standard monthly retainer with no long-term commitment required. Most clients continue — not because of a contract, but because compounding month-over-month growth makes the decision straightforward.
