Performance Retainer

Less channel management. More business management.

Performance Retainer is for Shopify merchants who want their advertising optimized based on business results – not just the platforms' own KPIs.

We work with campaigns, budget, audiences, measurement, and landing pages, prioritizing each month's efforts based on where the potential is greatest.

At your convenience

Paid media linked to e-commerce.

A retainer arrangement should make it clear what you receive, what is prioritized, and how the collaboration creates value over time.

01

Budget by profitability

We adjust budgets and bids based on cost, conversions, and profitability – not just traffic volume.

02

Multiple platforms

The work may include Google Ads, Meta Ads and other relevant advertising platforms depending on the chosen level.

03

Reliable measurement

We quality-assure existing conversion tracking and work with GA4, GTM, and product feeds where relevant.

04

The landing page is part of the advertising

We also analyze what happens after the click so that media and storefront are not optimized in separate silos.

Choose level

Choose the level that meets your needs today and scale up as your scope changes. All prices are per month and exclude VAT.

For the Shopify team

Performance marketing for Shopify and Shopify Plus.

Paid media is most effective when campaign data, conversion measurement, and e-commerce experience are analyzed together. For Shopify merchants, this means that advertising must be connected to actual purchases, product feeds, margins, and landing pages.

Google Ads for Shopify

Search, Shopping, and Performance Max can be important parts of the mix, but the structure must be adapted to the assortment, markets, and business goals. Merchant Center and product data are therefore often as important as the campaign settings themselves.

Meta Ads and paid social

Paid social requires continuous testing of audiences, messaging, and creative material. We work with the material that is available and help prioritize what should be tested next.
