System 05

Performance Execution

Paid acquisition and creative testing, judged on accepted opportunities rather than impressions, clicks, or form fills.

Overview

What this actually is.

Paid works differently at enterprise contract values. The volumes are small, the cycles are long, and a cost per lead target will reliably buy you the wrong leads.

We run paid as an account based channel: tight audiences built from the target list, creative aimed at named buying groups, and reporting that stops at accepted opportunity rather than form fill.

Scope

What the engagement covers.

Audience Construction

Audiences built from the account list itself, not broad interest targeting.

Creative Testing

Message Tracks tested against reply and meeting quality, not click through rate.

Channel Selection

Where your buyers actually are, usually less LinkedIn spend than agencies recommend.

Landing Experience

Pages built for a buying group doing research, not a single buyer ready to convert.

Retargeting Sequences

Sequenced by account engagement stage rather than one undifferentiated pool.

Pipeline Based Reporting

Spend reported against accepted opportunities and pipeline value created.

Timeline

How it runs.

Weeks 1 and 2

Instrument First

Tracking, CRM fields, and attribution wired up before any budget is committed.

Weeks 3 and 6

Test

Small budgets across audiences and message tracks to find what produces qualified conversation.

Weeks 7 and 12

Concentrate

Spend consolidated behind what produced accepted opportunities, with the rest cut.

Ongoing

Scale And Refresh

Budget scales while cost per accepted opportunity holds. Creative refreshed before fatigue sets in.
