The performance marketing agency
that referees your channels.

For budgets already split across three or more paid channels. One measurement plan built before spend moves, Google, Meta, LinkedIn and remarketing planned as one budget that shifts monthly on evidence, and attribution that admits what it cannot see across a long B2B cycle.

In one answer

PixelCrayons' performance marketing service is for companies running three or more paid channels: one measurement plan, one budget across Google, Meta, LinkedIn and remarketing, and attribution reported with its assumptions stated. It starts with a measurement sprint, a fixed scope at a fixed price with an end date: server-side, consent-aware tracking, conversion events defined against revenue or pipeline rather than form-fills, offline and CRM conversions imported where they exist. Then the cross-channel programme: one quarterly budget, rebalanced monthly on evidence, with platform numbers, analytics numbers and blended cost per acquisition reported side by side. Built for B2B and long sales cycles, where last-click attribution flatters the wrong channel. Direct for brands, white-label for agencies.

What the programme buys

One measurement plan, one budget,
in writing.

01

Measurement sprint first

Server-side, consent-aware conversion tracking built and verified before budgets move. Conversion events are defined against revenue or pipeline rather than form-fills, and offline and CRM conversions are imported where they exist. The setup is checked against real orders or opportunities, gaps written down. The commonest fault we find in a multi-channel audit is an account optimising toward an event that fires wrong. A thank-you page that loads twice; a form that counts a bounce as a lead. Fixing that is the least glamorous, highest-return work we do.

Weeks 1 to 3
02

Attribution with the working shown

Platform-reported numbers, analytics-reported numbers and blended cost per acquisition side by side, with the gaps between them explained rather than hidden. For long cycles the report says what the model can and cannot see. A LinkedIn click in one quarter and a closed deal in the next are matched through the CRM, not guessed from last click. When an assumption changes your numbers, the report says so.

Every report
03

One budget, channels compete for it

Google, Meta, LinkedIn and remarketing planned as a single quarterly programme with one target, then rebalanced monthly in writing. Money moves from the channel that is coasting to the one that is earning. The plan names the channels not worth running at all. It can, because the fee is set for the quarter and doesn't change when budget moves between channels, so no channel has a line item to defend.

Rebalanced monthly
04

LinkedIn and the B2B cycle

Named-account and persona targeting on LinkedIn for pipeline that closes over months, judged against pipeline stages and CRM conversions rather than form fills. It is often the most expensive click in the plan and sometimes the only one that reaches a buying committee. The ledger decides which, quarter by quarter.

Where cycles are long
05

Creative and landing pages, one team

Hooks, formats and angles tested weekly, with results logged win, lose or inconclusive. Landing pages built, tested and iterated by our own designers and developers. The click and the conversion are one job, so there is no seam for two agencies to blame each other across.

Audit to
one accountable budget.

01
Days 1 to 2

Cross-channel audit

Every active channel, LinkedIn included, reviewed for tracking, attribution setup, creative history and the pages the money points at. We also check whether your CRM can tell the programme what closed. A revenue or pipeline baseline is recorded so we're judged against real numbers.

02
Week 1

Programme, priced

One plan across the channels worth running, with the channels not worth running named too. The measurement sprint is quoted separately if your tracking cannot yet be trusted. Itemised and priced within 48 hours; you approve it before anything changes in your accounts.

03
Weeks 2 to 3

The measurement sprint

Server-side tracking, consent handling and conversion definitions corrected, and CRM and offline conversions imported. The whole setup is verified against real orders or pipeline before spend moves. Optimising on broken data compounds the breakage, so this sequencing is non-negotiable.

04
Month 1+

Rebalance, report, repeat

Monthly budget moves between channels, argued from the numbers, and weekly creative tests. Reporting shows platform numbers beside analytics numbers with the difference explained. Wins scale; losses stop; everything is logged.

D2C fragrance retailer: paid rebuilt on one roadmap.

Paid media relaunched alongside the store rebuild and SEO: one budget conversation instead of two, paid covering the terms organic hadn't won yet and pulling back where it had, query data fed back into the SEO plan, all reported weekly against revenue. The published record doesn't name the ad platforms, so neither does this card. Revenue up 340% across the seven-month engagement; that's the model working.

The system around it

One programme,
every lever connected.

The programme draws on the channel specialisms in our PPC practice, with the conversion side owned by CRO and lifecycle follow-up through email marketing. Running one or two channels? PPC management is the right page.

Questions

Frequently
asked.

It holds a paid budget accountable across channels rather than running each channel as its own retainer. In practice that is three jobs: a measurement plan the whole programme reports against (server-side tracking, conversions defined against revenue or pipeline, CRM and offline conversions imported), one budget across Google, Meta, LinkedIn and remarketing that moves monthly on evidence, and attribution reported with its assumptions stated. The name gets used loosely, often as another word for paid media agency; the test is whether the agency will move budget out of a channel it manages. We will, because our fee is set for the quarter and doesn't change when budget moves between channels.

PPC management runs Google Ads, Meta Ads and remarketing well: a named specialist per platform, tracking verified, waste cut, creative tested weekly and budget rebalanced monthly inside those accounts. If that is your paid mix and your conversion data can be trusted, PPC is the right page and the cheaper one. Performance marketing is for the situation PPC does not cover: three or more channels including LinkedIn, a sales cycle long enough that platform attribution is guessing, conversions that only exist in a CRM or offline, and a budget that needs one owner deciding between channels rather than a specialist optimising within each. The measurement sprint and the cross-channel programme exist for that buyer.

The answer has two parts. Structurally: a verified measurement setup within three weeks, a full cross-channel programme within a month, and monthly rebalancing from there. That's contractual. Commercially: it depends on your margins, your market, your creative and your sales cycle, and we won't invent a return-on-ad-spend number to close a deal. On a long B2B cycle the first quarter mostly proves the measurement works; the budget moves that pay off show up in pipeline before they show up in revenue, and the report says which is which. What we commit to is that every report shows real revenue or pipeline against real spend, and that budget moves when the numbers say so.

Yes: designed, built and tested by our own team as part of the programme rather than someone else's job. The commonest failure we audit isn't bad ads; it's good ads pointed at pages that can't convert, with an agency on each side of the seam blaming the other. One team on both sides removes the seam.

The cross-channel audit takes two days, the priced programme lands within 48 hours of the audit call, and the measurement sprint starts within 14 days of a signed NDA and runs two to three weeks depending on how broken things are: one consent banner and one checkout is a week; three domains, an app and a CRM handoff is the top of the range. We don't scale spend until tracking is verified, so the first weeks are deliberately about foundations, not fireworks.

Use tests you can check before signing. Will the agency move budget out of a channel it manages? Does it fix measurement before any budget scales, and report platform and analytics numbers side by side with assumptions stated? Do your ad accounts stay in your name? We meet each one: budget moves monthly in writing, measurement is fixed first, and your accounts stay yours throughout.

Two shapes, both on the rate card. The measurement and tracking sprint is a fixed one-time quote, scoped to how broken the setup is. The cross-channel programme is a monthly fee, three-month minimum, driven by how many channels run and how much creative they need: two channels with a monthly creative refresh sit low, four channels fed weekly sit at the top. Media spend is billed to you by each ad platform and is never part of the fee, and your ad accounts stay in your name throughout.

Yes. The full programme ships under partner agencies' brands: your reporting templates, your client calls, our media buyers and analysts. NDA-backed, with a contractual commitment never to approach your clients and a 12-month post-engagement blackout. One wholesale rate card covers it alongside every other discipline.

Put your paid budget
under honest lights.

The cross-channel audit shows where spend is earning, where it's leaking, whether your tracking can be trusted, and which channels deserve less. Priced within 48 hours, yours to keep either way. If the answer is that your current setup is fine, or that PPC management is all you need, the audit says that too.
